Job Creation: Diocese Bishop Enjoins Government To Create Enabling Environment
Government at all levels have been urged to create enabling environment for job creation to ensure better economic prosperity in the country.
The Bishop of Diocese of Kwara (Anglican Communion) and Chairman Christian Association of Nigeria, Kwara State branch, Right Reverend Sunday Adewole made the call while delivering his Christmas Sermon titled: “Behold The King “ at the Cathedral of St -Barnabas, Sabo- Oke Ilorin.
He implored government to make provisions for the citizens to farm or venture into private enterprise to make them self reliant.
Right Reverend Adewole advised Christians and other Nigerians to shun laziness and work hard to feed their families.
According to him, the era of searching for white collar job has gone, adding that everyone needs to start a trade before it is too late.
He advised Christians to have faith in God and serve him with all sincerity.
Right Reverend Adewole assured Christians that God will change the situation in the country for better and therefore urged Christian’s to live their life in conformity with the teaching of Jesus Christ.
He said “You know A king is the ruler over a kingdom, when we are celebrating Jesus Christ, we are celebrating the kingdom of God and he is the ruler over that kingdom, it is expedite for the subject to acclimatize themselves to their ruler to love him and to serve him”.
According to him, these are the messages of hope he has brought to everybody.
“Next year, everybody should not be lazy, they should pray for the government, they should do whatever they can do to have their living not waiting for white collar job. People should do one thing or the other to feed their family so that when we do that, banditry and armed robbery will be minimised” , he stressed.
The Bishop enjoined the government to as much as possible provide an enabling environment for those that are willing to work either in the farm settlement or in their private enterprises stressing that with such development, Nigeria will be better.
In his remarks shortly after the church service, the Deputy Governor of Kwara State, Mr. Kayode Àlabi advised Christians and other Nigerians to love one another and live in peace.
He urged the youths to shun all anti social vices and remain law abiding.
He said, “The Birth of Jesus Christ as we know comes with peace, love and faith and at this point, I want us to do what we have to do to love one another and to live in peace as a country, as a state, we should put our faith in God not in man.
According to him, God will sort us out in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us love God the author and finisher of our faith so that next year will be better than this year .
“On behalf of my boss the Governor of Kwara State, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, I want to say happy Christmas to everyone of us and happy New Year too. May the Lord bless everyone of us” , the deputy governor added.
He urged Nigerians to put their faith in God not in man and urged the youth to look up to Jesus Christ and have a good character of Jesus Christ not of man so that the country can move forward.
