THE IMPLICATION OF JESUS' MANIFESTO FOR THE CONTEMPORARY NIGERIAN LEADERS

Christ during his earthly mission had his manifesto, in other words, mission statement. Luke 4:16-21 clearly spells out Jesus’ manifesto on earth, it is the summary of Jesus’ mission programme. Christ is depicted as having fulfilled this manifesto which he presented in Luke 4:16-21. The Nigeria leaders in their manifesto use it as a means of campaign and getting votes for their victory. Promises has been made, mission statements has been reinstated, all these none been fulfilled. These manifestos over the years had no effect in curbing the menace facing the masses. This paper x-rayed Jesus mission statement viz-a-viz his manifesto, and discovered that He fulfilled all that he promised during His time. The paper therefore suggests that the contemporary leaders should always fulfill atleast fifty percent of their campaign promises before leaving office.
