Nigeria is walking in the wilderness – Gowon

Former Head of State, Yakubu Gowon on Saturday said Nigeria is “walking in the wilderness.”
Gowon said this at the thanksgiving service to commemorate 20th anniversary of “Nigeria Prays”, a prayer movement for the country in Abuja.
Gowon, however said the country is only facing temporary challenges which will soon be forgotten.
He urged Nigerians to continue praying for the country.

He said, “When you ask what prayers has God been answering, you think of all the problems and crisis that we have had in the country and the way the good Lord has been able to ensure that they all are peacefully resolved until we create another problem for ourselves.
“Since God inhabits the praises of His people, God knew Nigeria would continually need Him to see the nation through difficult times in much the same way as He was with the children of Israel, particularly during their walk through the wilderness. Nigeria is currently walking in the wilderness but joy cometh very soon. This is the promise of God for our beloved country after rallies and prayers in different geo-political zones of the country.“We cannot stop praying for Nigeria especially in the light of mounting challenges that have continually caused citizens to question their identity and the survival of the nation’s democratic structure.”
