"The term 'sweep' is not only applicable to using a broom to clean the house or brushing off dirt. Sweeping is fully associated with removing unwanted things from our lives.
At some point, one has to sweep away bad energy, negative friends, and everything that causes delays, disappointment, setbacks, negativity, etc.
I remember the first time I saw the APC campaign logo; it was a 'broom.' So I asked what it signifies, and I was told that the symbol represents wiping away old agendas, cleaning, and sweeping away everything bad to start a new, prosperous government.
It is generally believed that once an environment is clean, the people are safe from illness, disease, or any form of threat. So, whatever you don't want in your space, kindly sweep it away."
