It is crucial to recognise that leaders, despite their spiritual role, are human, and susceptible to flaws, struggles, and errors. Leadership accountability, should encompass a comprehensive system from the beginning, preventing anyone from acting without checks and balance.

You cannot be unprofessional at work and still be playing quiet-quitting. You are already hard to retain. Talent is not enough. First things first.

May we, as servants of God, embody accountability, integrity, and a genuine desire to lead people closer to Him. Let us not become fanatical, losing sight of our walk with God. I pray for a transformation in those who exploit their positions, and that enablers repent and...

Equally vital is the role of followers in maintaining a love-based, God-centric relationship. We follow Christ, seeking to please and walk in His path. We must discern manipulative tactics and understand that God does not send leaders to torture, abuse, or manipulate His children

Pastors and religious leaders should be subject to checks, appraisals, rebukes, discipline, and, where necessary, suspension. Extremes in Christian leadership that permit unchecked actions find no support in the scriptures.

Pastors or leaders should be able to take a break, go on vacations, engage in therapy, maintain a healthy lifestyle, spend quality time with their immediate family and loved ones, hang out in nice places, look good, buy beautiful things s/he can afford.

Acknowledging the weight of leadership roles, I have always treated religious leaders with the utmost respect, understanding the challenges, expectations, and sacrifices that come with their positions. However, this reverence should not lead to silence in the face of misconduct.

In addressing the scandals that often go unaddressed or covered up, we must break the silence. As a member and servant in the body of Christ, I feel compelled to share my thoughts on the need for accountability structures and the need to uphold integrity in religious leadership.

Sometimes you wonder if you're the only one left who believes in certain values. Everywhere you look, knees have bowed to "Baal" and you despair that you may be next in the loss of innocence. Then you remember what God told Elijah - there's still a remnant left. I often joke with God that the story in I Kings 19: 10 & 18 is actually an indictment. How can 7,000 good guys be around yet no one has heard of them? Only Elijah seemed vocal. The lesson for me is to be vocal about my values. Because if others don't know I exist, they won't be encouraged to keep going. If you believe in values, shout! Scream! The other side isn't shy. And support others like you. Or else, your kind will soon be a frustrated minority.

2 months ago, I heard that a founder was paying himself $15k monthly, the company packed up. This past weekend, I heard another founder was paying himself $50,000 monthly, the company packed up. Both of them, on investor funds. Like many people like me who invest in and/or back early stage companies, I was horrified if I’m being honest. I think it’s about time we begin to talk about what it really takes to build successful companies. I’ve recently found that there are really only a few founders in Africa who set out to solve real problems and create thriving businesses, others are just offering “entrepreneurship as a service” (EaaS). They set out to solve their own problem, poverty. Whenever a founder, director or owner doesn’t understand or practice the principles of ‘delayed gratification’, the death of whatever they’re building is around the corner. Cash flow in business is like blood in your body, once there’s an area of serious bleeding, death could become inevitable. For context, I founded my first company in 2011. It broke even & became profitable within 15 months. The company was unbelievable liquid by year 2 ending, but I (the founder) wasn’t. I didn’t have an office or earn a constant monthly salary. My then two senior managers earned more than me, this is still a practice in many of my companies today. I pay exec hires more than I pay myself, if at all I earn anything. Call me an old school entrepreneur, but I don’t like paper valuation. I like: 1. Strong balance sheet 2. Healthy cashflow 3. Frugality (keep cost down at all costs) I am brutal with cost. I do not like to run a company like I’m Santa, spending like there’s no tomorrow. Now as a fund manager, this means I’m able to return higher ROI to my investors than your favorite hedge fund managers; because of the low cost of running our funds. Whether it’s fintech or farmland, the principles behind starting, growing and scaling a company are the same. Break them and they will hunt you down!

Being available for work ‘anytime’ is not a sign of a great place to work. Sending mails and expecting immediate responses at 2am is a sign of a toxic culture. Damaged managers can only damage others, not lead them. With work-life harmony come great workplace results.

I experienced this first hand while in University. We had an accident on airport road and were rushed to a hospital. They insisted on a police report before even looking at us. Nigeria...STOP KILLING YOUR YOUTH! Let's make #onechance end and I pray there is #justiceforgreatness

You have to stop the habit of always wanting to figure out how to do something before you decide to do it, for you to experience big shifts (read it slowly). Decide first, then your system will draw on your creative power to figure out how. Highly successful people know and do this already.
