There are hundreds of places of worship abandoned in Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Niger, and Kebbi States. Over the years, I have come to understand that building structures without building the people is a waste of God\u2019s resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Building churches on every street has not reduced insecurity and joblessness in our society. Church buildings have never been one of the basic need of man; they do not necessarily lead to increased godliness. God\u2019s command to the church is very clear: \u2018Go into all the world and make *disciples* of all nations\u2019. He has not commissioned us to build churches! It is disciples that makes a church. A church building is merely where disciples meet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our focus should not be on building churches only, rather we should focus more on making disciples. We do not need multiple Church buildings for the light of God to shine over a city. Rather, we need disciples who would represent Jesus outside the four corners of Church buildings \u2013 men and women who will glorify Jesus in their offices, businesses, schools \u2013 everywhere!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am not against building auditoriums for worship, however, I think Church leaders should commit more resources to discipleship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hashtag\/buildthepeople?__eep__=6&amp;__cft__%5b0%5d=AZULNE7wc4oFQ57UHQzY2RpZBch4Hr7nmWb53R6tTC7xhWYq8OOqQOQ7Xc62yOA-d66EG1ue5lXxzTntShYbMSvIPKtyTBqKj1QwzuOEfYVbZjSBI5u3qr9bEMfHMTcQHokA69MqQD5kQlwdcrbJrxYAL22noobx9Ikh50FT6QHkIhwKCx3tcrvCp4kC576on5I&amp;__tn__=*NK-R\">#BuildThePeople<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-team-member stk-block-team-member stk-block stk-270b23c is-style-default\" data-v=\"2\" data-block-id=\"270b23c\"><div class=\"stk-block-team-member__content stk-content-align stk-270b23c-column stk-container stk-270b23c-container stk-hover-parent\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks has-text-align-center stk-270b23c-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-image stk-block-image has-text-align-center stk-block stk-bf0f44f\" data-block-id=\"bf0f44f\"><style>.stk-bf0f44f .stk-img-wrapper{width:160px !important;}<\/style><figure><span class=\"stk-img-wrapper stk-image--shape-stretch\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"stk-img wp-image-1255\" src=\"https:\/\/vohfa20255717.live-website.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/VOHFA-Davis-Muguimi-Photo2.jpg\" width=\"884\" height=\"810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vohfa20255717.live-website.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/VOHFA-Davis-Muguimi-Photo2.jpg 884w, https:\/\/vohfa20255717.live-website.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/VOHFA-Davis-Muguimi-Photo2-300x275.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vohfa20255717.live-website.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/VOHFA-Davis-Muguimi-Photo2-768x704.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 884px) 100vw, 884px\" \/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block-heading--v2 stk-block stk-ad051dd\" id=\"strong-davis-muguimi-strong\" data-block-id=\"ad051dd\"><h3 class=\"stk-block-heading__text\"><strong>DAVIS MUGUIMI<\/strong><\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-c526b2a\" data-block-id=\"c526b2a\"><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">Davis Muguimi is a successful Corporate Communications and Partnership Development professional with vast experience in Partnership Development, Strategic Planning, PR and Communication.
