The General Superintendent of Assemblies of God Church, Nigeria, Rev Prof. Paul Emeka, has urged leaders in the country to ensure adequate leadership transmission.

Emeka, who was on an apostolic visit to the Abuja Central District during the election of new executives, said leaders in the country should always plan to transmit power to their successors.

The election saw the emergence of Rev. Dr. Emeka Eze as Abuja Central district superintendent, Rev. Emanuel Omole, assistant district superintendent and Rev. Abraham Odey, district secretary.

Other officials elected are Rev. Femi Omole, district treasurer and Rev. Theophilus Ikechukwu as members.

While congratulating the new leaders, he said transmission of power builds the chain of success in every leadership space.

He said, “Handover or transmission is not a one-day job; that is why planning is necessary. We also know that poor transmission leads to poor leadership.

“You have to be ready to transmit your legacy and values to the generation coming after you. To transmit means preparing the people for the future and passing on what you have to the next generation.

“The promises of God to us is massive, but we have to connect to them by ourselves.”

While expressing disappointment with most leaders in the country, the revered general overseer of AGC Nigeria said it is unfortunate that those occupying leadership positions are planning for the next elections instead of impacting the younger generation and transmitting power to the next most qualified person.

Speaking further, he urged leaders to be selfless and work for the general public’s interest instead of a few privileged minorities.
