ABUJA – Even in the apparent midst of helpless
situation, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has expressed confidence in his principal, President Muhammadu Buhari’s ability to take Nigeria out of the present economic challenges.

He said that the administration would surely rescue the country and take Nigerians across the red-sea into the promise land.

The assurance was contained in Osinbajo’s remark at the 56th Independence Anniversary Interdenominational Church Service at the National Christian Centre, Abuja on Sunday.

The Vice President charged the people not to be
deterred by the economic recession, assuring that
there would be light at the end of the tunnel.

“We are on our way out of the wilderness. We should not be like children of Israel when He took them out of Egypt and after few problems became
grumblers-in-chief.

“As children of God we must declare this nation will prosper, we must be like our father who is the great encourager.

“Our message to Nigeria is be strong and of good encourage, do not be dismayed, every Nigeria will benefit from the new Nigeria.

“God saw our nation and decided to put this leadership in place, this leadership will take us across the red sea to the new Nigeria”, Osinbajo
said.

In his message at the event, the President of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Rev. Dr. Samson Supo Ayokunle, said that the country’s leaders needed divine revelation and wisdom to tackle the economic challenges.

He reasoned that the country ought not have been in the quagmire if the previous administrations had
saved for the rainy.

He however admonished the government to look
beyond the Federal Executive Council, FEC, and accommodate external opinions to realign the
economy.

He said: “They were siphoning the resources for their pockets. We got into this also because of our inability to diversify. We killed our agriculture for oil.

“We are all responsible for the self-imposed trouble.
There is hope, help will come from above for Nigeria. There is a way out in the mind of God if we seek Him”.

The CAN president also stated that the judgment of
God was coming on all those that looted the
economy which he said that put Nigeria on the
difficult pedestal.

“When you have left office, what will you be remembered for?” He queried

“Judgment of God is coming. The corrupt Nigerians that have not been apprehended will not escape the judgment of God”, he said.

He urged the government to restore religious studies and discipline in schools.

The scriptures read included Isaiah 60: 9 to 20 and
1st Chronicle 12:32.

The 1st scripture reading was taken from Ezekiel
37: 1 to 14 by a representative of the judiciary.

The 2nd scripture reading was taken from Romans
8: 28 to 39 by the Chief of Defence State, General
Abayomi Gabriel Olonisakin.

Intercessary prayers were offered for President
Buhari, Osinbajo and other members of the
executive arm as well as the Nigerian nation,
security and economic challenges.

The same were made for the legislature and the
judiciary, peace and development of the country
and the unity of the church.

Dignitaries at the occasion included the Secretary to
the Government of the Federation, Babachir David
Lawal, Wife of the Vice President, Dolapo Osinbajo,
Bayelsa State Governor, Sarieke Dickson, former
Vice President, Alex Ekwueme, Senator Olurunibe
Mamora, Senate President, Bukola Saraki was represented by Senator Bernabas Gemade
