“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way” — John C. Maxwell. A great leader has the ability to inspire action through proper guidance and mentorship and uses their knowledge to educate others along the way. A great leader also practises what they preach by also “going the way."
Without blabbing or gainsaying, Pastor Emmanuel Olu Olorunpomi belongs to a generation of ministers and leaders who, over the years have inspired many youths to achieve their divine purpose in life. In his bid to impact and inspire lives, Pastor Olorunpomi at times would discomfort himself and make a lot of sacrifice just to make sure people achieve their divine purposes.
