Former Ondo State Governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, says Nigeria can only break free from administrative gridlock and insecurity if power is genuinely transferred to sub-national governments.
Mimiko spoke at the Pastors’ Seed Service of the 74th Annual Convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, on the topic, “The Government and Politics Mountain,” under the theme “Mountain Movers.”
He anchored his message on the “Jethro Principle” in Exodus 18, describing it as God’s template for effective governance.
The former governor recalled how Moses nearly suffered burnout trying to govern millions alone until his father-in-law, Jethro, advised him to delegate authority to leaders over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens.
