God will change Nigeria’s fortunes for good – Archbishop Martins


The Catholic Archbishop of Lagos, Most Rev. Alfred Adewale-Martins, on Saturday urged Nigerians to remain steadfast in faith and hope that God will not fail to deliver the country from the shackles of bad leadership and its attendant poverty.


Adewale-Martins decried what he called “injustice, inequality and feelings of marginalisation associated with the Nigerian state” and gave the projection in his 2022 Christmas message.


The message, which was given by the Church’s Director of Social Communications, Rev. Fr. Anthony Godonu is an annual ritual meant to encourage people and to provide God’s grace to Nigerians.


The High Priest asked everyone to hold on to the belief that Nigeria shall return to the path of prosperity and peace once again.


He said just as Jesus was born on Christmas night and He brought redemption to the whole of humanity, so his coming at Christmas of 2022 would be a positive transformation for Nigerians.


“Just as Christmas begets hope for humanity, so it heralds hope for our country, Nigeria, particularly at this period when millions of citizens are in pain and frustrated as a result of hardship in the land.


“However, as they say: ‘Heaven helps those who help themselves,’ so all Nigerians need to do the needful. We must all pay keen attention to the political happenings as we look forward to the general elections coming in 2023.


“All persons of voting age should go get their voting cards and partake in the elections and vote only credible persons capable of changing the fortunes of the country for better,” the Bishop said.


He urged Nigerians not to sell their votes in order not to jeopardise the future of their children.


He charged the political leaders to allow the spirit of God to guide them to enable them make policies for the common good rather than for the benefit of a privileged few.
