“When Theagenes died, the Greek city of Thasos erected a giant statue of him at the public square. But a jealous citizen of Thasos who hated Theagenes so much for his heroism and great success will visit the statue every night to flog, beat and spit at it, yet he was not satisfied.

“Then one night he took instruments and began to dig the statue so as to bring it down. But the statue fell down upon him and killed him.

“The people of Thasos still erected a bigger statue for Theagenes. I leave this little story for that beloved Lagos Pastor.

He also noted that what he described as ‘spiritual pride’ has been the bane of Christianity in Nigeria.

According to the former lawmaker, some top minister sees themselves as bigger and better than the others.
