Amid grinding poverty and worsening insecurity, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says God did not create Nigerians to be self-sufficient.

He explained that God “did not create us to be independent of him.”

The vice president added, “He did not endow us with the strength to succeed without him. The God of new beginnings did not create us to be self-sufficient. We need him.”

In a statement on Thursday, the vice president’s media aide Laolu Akande disclosed that Mr Osinbajo said this during the virtual 25th Annual Convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) – The Americas.

Mr Osinbajo, a Redeemed pastor, cited the biblical story of Nathaniel, who doubted whether any good thing could come out of Nazareth.

“Today, many men are saying the same about our nation Nigeria, even men of God. But this is the textbook case of how God works. He is set to give Nigeria a new beginning,” claimed Mr Osinbajo. “In the midst of current travails, the God of new beginnings is about to change our story. He is about to do something new.

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.”

Mr Osinbajo spoke at a convention session featuring the General Overseer of the Church, Enoch Adeboye, his wife, Folu, and the Continental Overseer of the Church in the American Continent James Fadel.

The convention also featured other guest speakers drawn from around the world.

Even God have to depend on some angels to do some assignments for Him, He doesn't meet people directly likewise Jesus who asked us to preach the gospel on His behave only igbos are self sufficient, the same set of people worshipping pope and begging Israel to fight for them.

So the God that created Nigeria is different from the God that created European, North American and Asian nations that are progressing despite been very secular countries where people believe in their themselves, science, logic and good leadership. And some psychophants were spending stolen money to hype this yahoo yahoo pastor to be the next president? Nigeria can only progress when we abandon stupid religion and tribal supremacy.

Nna mehnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

What is Prof still doing in this idiot's name?

If you know you voted for this government in 2015, you're forgiven, maybe you were ignorant

But if you know you voted for this government again in 2019, you should be very prayerful because normally e no suppose better for you

You should be having bad dreams and headache every night

Actually, no one succeeds without God. We need God at all times.
