Prophet Austin Ariole JP |
.... Encourages youths to shun vices that are inimical to their growth and development and never to loose in life.
"There are indications that the poor can become a colossus in their time. Don't give up. Tompolo is a voice in Africa. He didn't come from the rich. He was born out of struggle."
The General Overseer of Goshen Freedom Tabernacle, GFT in Effurun, Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State, Prophet Austin Ariole JP today described "Very Dark Man (VDM) is a "trail blazer" and "pacesetter", saying he has been able to tackle corruption in the Nigerian society with his agitations.
This is at a time when the ills in the society has surged, with many youths looking for quick means of survival
The cleric made this known at a midweek service as he prayed for a reawakening of youths in the country saying, all VDM's agitations are "discipline based".
"This is a young man that is able to stand before the high and mighty and tell them their wrongs, headlong. I watched him in the House of Representatives and then, I remember the late Anthony Enahoro who moved a motion; was it in 1963?"
Prophet Ariole said VDM, in the midst of the corruption in the Nigerian society has tackled the Inspector-General of Police, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC as well as renowned lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana SAN.
Prophet Ariole who argued that there should be equality in the Nigerian society, said,"VDM has given a ray of hope to the Nigerian youth that every man should be equal. Kudos to that young man."
Prophet Ariole opined that VDM could be from the lineage of Oba Overanwen whom he said was strong, dogged and never afraid to his death. "That's the spirit of Very Dark Man."
Prophet Ariole also said High Chief (Dr.) Oweizide Government Ekpemupolo Alias Tompolo is a symbol of peaceful resolution to the Niger Delta people.
The cleric said he (Tompolo) used "peaceful resolution" in his agitations for the equitable distribution of the mineral resources to better the lives of his people.
Prophet Ariole also added Tompolo used his peaceful agitations to attract development to the land as well as improve on the lives of the people of the Niger Delta.
He stressed that he (Tompolo) set his people free with his peaceful agitations.
"Do you know how many Ijaws, Deltans, Niger Deltans are on scholarships because of the agitation? Do you know schools that have been built as a result of his agitation? He is a hero of the Niger Delta."
Prophet Ariole also commended the member representing the people of Burutu Federal Constituency, in the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Julius Gbabojor Pondi for supporting and empowering his people as well as persons outside his constituency positively and effectively well.
"That young man went to his area where he stayed before and began to spread joy to his people outside his constituency. This is what these people can do to change the lives and destinies of people irrespective of their religious beliefs. Tompolo and his allies.
"Therefore, I give Kudos to Tompolo. Even that Julius Pondi, I give Kudos to him. These are icons of our time. They are young people."
Prophet Ariole who also commended the Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori said as a young man, he led the Urhobo struggle to the office of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC before he became a member of the Delta State House of Assembly where he rose to become the Speaker of the House before his emergence as a governor.
Prophet Ariole encouraged the youths to shun vices that are inimical to their growth and development and never to loose in life.
"There are indications that the poor can become a colossus in their time. Don't give up. Tompolo is a voice in Africa. He didn't come from the rich. He was born out of struggle."
Prophet Ariole who also commended a two time chairman of Burutu Local Government Council and former Commissioner in Delta State, Dr. Bradus Angozi for his support to humanity irrespective of ethnic, religious and political affiliations
"There is a man called Dr. Bradus Angozi. If you know that man, you are blessed. Dr. Bradus will change you in his own capacity. I have never seen anybody like that.
"He will call you to find out how you are faring in your academics and in your works. We need these kind of kind-hearted people in the society and let the world become a better place."
