Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has assured the challenges facing Nigeria are not insurmountable but stepping stones to a great future.

Osinbajo stated this in Owerri on Sunday at a special interdenominational thanksgiving service to mark the first anniversary of the administration of the Imo Governor Hope Uzodinma.

The Vice President, who delivered the felicitations of President Muhammadu Buhari to the Governor and the people, also observed that faithful service to the people in public office is a way of honouring God who gave the opportunity in the first place to leaders.

“Let me say that despite the challenges our Nation faces, by the grace of God, we, the Nigerian people, are more than able to surmount them.

“So I say to you, people of Imo and the great people of Nigeria; yes, we have works to do, yes we have much to repair, but we are undaunted.

“The problems we see today are the stepping stones to our great future. We are, by the grace of God, mightier than our challenges,” the VP said.

The Vice President was received at the airport by host Governor Uzodinma as well as some former Governors – including Orji Kalu of Abia and Mohammed Bindow of Adamawa.

There were also Federal Executive Council (FEC) members like Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), and Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige.

While he acknowledged some of the strides so far recorded under Governor Uzodinma, the Vice President urged him to stay focused on delivering quality leadership in service to the people of Imo State, while ensuring their well-being remains a cardinal point for the state government.

“There are at least three possible forms of opposition to government. One is political opposition, the second is time, and the third is the leader himself – i.e. when the leader is discouraged or distracted.

“But the most critical factor is you, the leader. How you deal with time and political opposition will determine success or failure. Don’t look back. Keep focused. Stay on track,” he said.
