Oyedepo delivers message of valuable life to new graduates

The Chancellor, Covenant University, Bishop David Oyedepo

The Chancellor, Covenant University, Ogun State, Bishop David Oyedepo, has urged the new graduates of the institution to think about value addition, job creation and other virtues that will bring solutions to societal problems.

Oyedepo made this call on Friday at the 16th convocation of the university while delivering his speech titled, ‘Looking Ahead.’

Oyedepo said performance in every field of human endeavour is a function of preparation, adding that no one can ever arrive at a future that he cannot see and no one arrives at a future that he is not prepared for.

He said, “stop thinking self, start thinking solution, contribution, value addition, think the well being of others, think job creation, think the coming generation, think kingdom advancement, think eternity.

According to the clergyman, “no one will be remembered for what he has” that is his cup of tea, “ you will be remembered for what you add”.

“Approach life with a contributors mentality and you will make the most of it. Commitment to a life of contribution is what makes men and women exploited.

one arrives at a future he cannot see. I believe purposelessness is the bane of today’s youths. They are blank to the future, aiming at nothing, going for everything that comes their way. Without a well-defined purpose, life is meaningless. Every true vision is about value addition and not just possession.

“You must endeavour to possess and sustain a contributory mentality. Approach life with a contributory mentality; it is risky to live a loose and carefree life. Your great future lies in the early discovery of your purpose.

Man gets to positions of power and authority and bring to bear their inner qualities. Position, as we have it here, is used to do all sorts of things; good and bad. But mostly and vexatiously, position blinds us as we use it to cheat and deny others their rights. Certain men understand that position is an opportunity to etch their names in gold and put such in the same of time. It is exactly fifty years today that the 42nd Deji of Akure, late Oba Agunsoyebioyinbo Ademuagun Adesida 11 joined his ancestors.
