Nigeria on path to progress- Osinbajo

224
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, on Sunday, said the Buahri administration will turn the moment of peril to progress.
“Nigeria is on the path of resurrection and progress, he said after the Easter Service at the Aso Villa Chapel, Abuja, to mark this year’s Easter celebration.

  “The resurrection of Jesus Christ is also a strong and powerful message to the nation.
”The message is that our nation is on the path of resurrection, is on the path of progress, is on the path of elevation.
”We are moving out from all our challenges and we are going to a place of greater hope, peace and prosperity and abundance for all of us.”.
The Chaplain of the Aso Villa Chapel, Pastor Seyi Malomo, in his sermon titled: “The Temporary  Hour of Darkness,” said Nigeria is going to rise again.
He said that the resurrection of Christ signified that darkness can only reign but for a while.
”According to the message today, darkness only reign for a while. No natter the evil, the problem we are facing, just as Jesus only laid in the grave for three days, all these will be over.
”As long as Jesus rose from the dead, we are going to rise again, even all of you listening to me,” he said.
He called on all Nigerians to emulate the life of Jesus Christ who sacrificed his life for the salvation of mankind.
