Erstwhile President of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo has stated that Nigeria was not meant to struggle economically.
He added that the country is blessed with abundant natural resources, emphasising that Nigeria had all it needs to thrive.
Obasanjo said this when he spoke at the Methodist Archdiocese of Abuja’s 40th-anniversary celebration held in Abuja on Sunday, October 13.
“As God created other nations, endowing them with resources, He similarly blessed Nigeria with numerous resources for growth. Just as Egypt has the River Nile, Nigeria has the Rivers Niger and Benue, plus crude oil, fertile soil, and other natural resources. I firmly believe God didn’t create Nigeria to struggle. He has given us everything we need; it’s our duty to appreciate Him, especially since many countries lack what Nigeria has.”
Further, he urged leaders, clergymen, and citizens to pray for the country’s healing, acknowledging that Nigeria’s current situation isn’t God’s fault.
“We’ve squandered God’s gifts, but if we humble ourselves and seek Him, He will heal our land.” he said
