Nigeria’s challenges transient, says Babalola

Former Kwara State governorship aspirant, Sunday Babalola, has urged Nigerians not to be frustrated over challenges facing the country, as they are just a phase in the journey to greatness.

In his Sallah message, yesterday, the pastor called on the Muslim faithful to live out the lessons of Eid el-Kabir in their daily lives.

He urged them to apply sacrifice, love, peace and brotherhood to ensure unity, cohesion and harmonious co-existence.

Babalola advised citizens to support and pray for President Bola Tinubu to deliver good governance and dividends of democracy.

According to him, without prejudice to the court cases challenging Tinubu’s declaration as winner of the February 25, 2023 presidential election, Nigerians should support anybody who is President.

He said: “The hardship will not last long. Things, definitely, will change in Nigeria for the better. If the President continues to move in this direction, we only need to be patient. For things to get better, they may get hard initially.

“I wish the President well. I wish him happiness during this season.”

I pray God to give him wisdom to run this complex nation. I pray for him every day to succeed because his success is what will benefit all of us; but his failure will never benefit us. We must desire success for whoever is there. That is why I am praying for his success.”
