Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says Nigerians should never lose hope about the prospect of the country despite the current economic hardship.
During an interview on Arise TV on Monday, Obasanjo said the country said he is an incurable optimist, who believes that Nigeria will get to “where God wants us to be”.
“We wish all Nigerians a happy and prosperous new year, and I will say to Nigerians, we’re going through hardship, but they should never lose hope,” the former president said.
“I’m an incurable optimist about Nigeria, and we have a great country.
Where we are is not where God wants us to be, and I believe that sooner than later we will get to where God wants us to be.
“God wants Nigeria to be a land flowing with milk and honey, not a desert, a basket case, or a failed country.
