EXTRA: God is about to make Nigeria fly again, says Obaseki

Godwin Obaseki, governor of Edo, says God is about to restore Nigeria’s greatness.

Obaseki gave his message of hope on Sunday at the Deeper Life Bible Church’s global crusade in Benin City, the state’s capital.

The governor expressed hope that through prayers, the country’s economic situation will improve.

“They have brought Christ to us, they have brought hope to us, they have brought a fundamental message which is so relevant at this time because God is about to loose Nigeria so that Nigeria can fly,” he said.

“He is about to make Nigeria fly. We want to thank God for what he has done for us in Edo State. We want to continue to pray that even though things are difficult now, they can only get better.”

Obaseki also reiterated his commitment to improving the welfare of the people of Edo.

“Whatever they do, we will not allow them to do what they used to do in the past. We must give hope to our young people because they are our future,” the governor said.

“I want to thank all of you for coming out to listen to the message of our father in this crusade. 

“The whole world is watching us, watching Edo and by the grace of God, the message that has been brought through this crusade will save our land and will bring prosperity to us again.” 

The governor pledged that the state government would make ample use of the resources for the good of the state.
