God’s hands’ never too short to deliver Nigeria from challenges – SGF 

Mr Boss Mustapha, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), says the hands of God are never too short to deliver Nigeria from whatever challenges it may be going through.

He made the assertion at the 2022 Democracy Day interdenominational church service, held at the Abuja Christian Centre on Sunday, where he represented Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.

“We assure ourselves that the hands of God are never too short to deliver, and that his grace would always prevail for our good.

“Equally important is that we also assure ourselves that no matter how challenging the situation or moment might be, there is always enough God-given strength within us as a people to surmount them.

“Nigerians have always risen to the occasion; when it mattered most, we rose to the occasion when colonial powers subjugated our people and lorded over our resources.

“We rose to the occasion, following the ravages of a civil war to rebuild a united country, no matter how imperfect, we rose to the occasion,” he said.

The SGF added that the country also rose when military dictatorships pushed us to the age of extinction and negotiated our way into a democratic government.

This, he said, provided a platform for us to build a country we could all be proud of, adding that we had come this far because of the collaboration of all.
