LAGOS—Popular London-based overseer, Reverend Mother Esther Ajayi has called on the federal government to embrace agriculture as a way out of  current graduate and massive unemployment in the country.

Ajayi, who is founder, Lovers of Christ Generation Church in London said agriculture holds the key to engaging young graduates who she said should go into production of food as God has promised to “restore the years eaten by cankerworm.”

Speaking in an interview at the arrival hall of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos , Ajayi said she was happy to be in Nigeria with a message from God for the youths to embrace agriculture.

The popular London- based clergy, urged Nigerian political leaders to eschew greed and demonstrate the fear of God, adding that  only leaders who do not have reverence for God  will allow greed to becloud  their sense of judgment.

Ajayi faulted claims in some quarters suggesting material exploitation, saying the church has been involved in charity engagements by distributing Bibles and other materials, including feeding of the flock during church services on Sundays in  London, her base.
