Former President of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has urged Nigerians not to lose faith in the country’s existence.
Obasanjo stated that Nigeria will overcome the numerous difficulties it is now experiencing against all odds.
He stated that if our predecessors encountered comparable problems in their time and were able to overcome them, then we would be able to do so as well.
The elder statesman spoke during a courtesy visit paid to him by the Coordinator of Christ Apostolic Church Prayer Camp, Ikeji Arakeji, Prophet Sam Olu Alo, in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.
The cleric paid the courtesy visit to the former President after the morning session of a power-packed programme held at the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Isale Ake, Abeokuta with the theme: “The God of Our Fathers”.
Chief Obasanjo who posited that the theme of the programme was timely, commended the forefathers of faith.
According to him, the great faith in God as exhibited by our forefathers is all that is needed to weather the storm.
Quoting various bible passages including John 16 verse 32 to back up his words, Obasanjo said, “Even our forefathers had their own problems and challenges but they overcame the challenges.
‘We also have our own challenges but I believe that what we are passing through in Nigeria presently, we will overcome in Jesus’ precious name”.
Responding, Prophet Olu Alo appreciated Chief Obasanjo for his great efforts at building our great country Nigeria.
He prayed to God to grant good health and long life to the former leader for him to continually offer advice that will help in the development of the country.
