The Three tiers of government in Nigeria have been urged to try as much as possible to creat avenue for employment, especially for thousands of jobless youths roaming the streets, to curb the spate security challenges bedeviling the country.
Former Kwara state Deputy governor Chief Joel Ogundeji gave the advice on the sideline of thanksgiving concert and award service at Niger River Basin Development Authority Chapel, Ilorin the Kwara state capital, with the theme: ‘Thanksgiving’ at the weekend.”
Ogundeji noted that if people were well engaged they would have no time to think about evil things.
“For example, this country, Nigeria is a lover of football, if government can promote such activity in many places,it is going to keep people busy. When people are busy, they will have no time to think about all the evil things they are doing.
“When we look back to our own youthful days and compare it with what we have now, there is a lot of difference.
“Most of our youths are very good, they have the knowledge but there are some of them who do not want to work but they want to have money and before you get money you must work, if they work, they will get money,” he said.
He stressed the need to be grateful to God and reciprocate whenever God does great things in people’s life. ” God is very happy for people who thank Him for what He does,” he said.
A Cleric Bishop, Dr Bayo Adejola, who stressed the purpose and benefits of thanksgiving, noted that God values thanksgiving.
“You fulfil destiny when you give thanks to God. In everything, give thanks. Thanksgiving is the will of God. When you give thanks to God, you provoke God to divine blessings.”
The Celebrator, Medaiyese Oluwatosin, said he gave thanks to God for Hisis faithfulnes in his life.
