The Olubadan of Ibadan land, Oba Saliu Adetunji on Sunday asked Nigerians to keep faith in God in the face of the economic depression in the country.
Oba Adetunji who made the call in his Easter message signed by his Director, Media and Public Affairs, Adeola Oloko declared that there was no basis for the increasing rate of suicide among Nigerians in recent times.,
The royal father pointed out that with the death and resurrection of Christ, “all the machinations of the enemy could always be reversed, if you partner with God”.
Emphasizing the enormous implication of the death and resurrection of Christ Jesus,Oba Adetunji said, “you don’t have to jump into the Lagoon or hang yourself because of economic depression. Those who believe in God always laugh last”.
He stressed that “it is wrong to have the celebration of Easter without the substance and that the substance is that Jesus Christ died, he was buried, he is risen and alive”.
Oba Adetunji then urged all the well-meaning people in the society to have consideration for the poor and the needy in the spirit of Easter.
