General Superintendent of Deeper
Life Bible Church Worldwide, Pastor William Kumuyi, on Sunday said Nigeria had
been unable to march its development with inherent possibilities because of the
people’s failure to either harness or utilise the nation’s diversity for their
collective greatness.
Kumuyi
stated this while delivering the sermon at an interdenominational church
service held in Abuja to mark Nigeria’s 58th Independence Day anniversary.
He said that Nigeria was endowed
with resourceful citizens who could drive the nation to envious heights.
However, he regretted that
contentions and divisions had deprived the citizens of personal and national
greatness in times past.
Kumuyi stressed that Nigeria
would be on the path to greatness if citizens were united and there was a
harmonious coordination of the nation’s diversities.
He said: “No doubt, our nation,
like the Corinthian church, is endowed with highly resourceful citizens by the
Almighty God.
“Selfless and committed to our
national development, we could easily become the envy of many nations but our
national development has not matched our great possibilities like Corinth.
“Each one has an important part
to play in the development of the nation.
“In the nation, mutual support
and encouragement, sincere recognition and involvement of all well-meaning and
qualified citizens are necessary to avoid wastage of lives and resources.
“We can and we must put the past
behind us to build a great nation for the present and the coming generations.
“Interdependent, interconnected,
interrelated, we are on our way to national greatness: we are unstoppable.”
