Financial crisis: Nigeria needs divine intervention, says Aregbesola


Do you believe him.....Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, has said Nigeria requires divine intervention for it to survive the financial crisis caused by oil slump.
Aregbesola said this in Osogbo on Wednesday evening at an interactive session with journalists in the state.
The governor called on Nigerian leaders as well as the followers to pray fervently to God to reverse the situation which he said led a huge problem for the country.
While praying for divine intervention, he said Nigerians should also make the fear of God their watchword which according to him, will make the people to depart from corruption and other ungodly acts.
He said, “Salvaging the nation  from the ongoing economic quagmire requires  creativity, commitment, patriotism and honesty not only by the people in leadership positions but also on the part of the generality of the people.
“This could be achieved  through active participation in polity and developmental programmes initiated by government at all levels and targeted at the socio-economic development of the country.”
He stated that his administration would not relent in the efforts  to use the state’s resources to continue with  developmental programmes in the state.
While calling  on the media to collaborate with government in its pursuit to develop the state, he appealed to them to shun falsehood and sensationalism in order to stop heating up the already tensed situation in the country.
