An Idle Mind Can Be The Devil’s Workshop For Nigerian Students – Daniel Okoh

The President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Dr Daniel Okoh has come out to urge the Federal Government and the leadership of the Academic Staff Union of Universities to end the seven-month strike.

The group recently had its say via a press statement, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, he is calling on the Federal Government to do all that is necessary to ensure most of our youths go back to universities and engage with their studies as soon as possible.

CAN added that the students need to resume school soon because an idle minds are the devil’s workshop.

It read, “I call on the Federal Government to do all that is necessary so that most of these youths will go back to the universities and engage with their studies.”

“As it is often said that ‘idle minds are the devil’s workshop, idle lips are his mouthpiece.”

“The year 2023 is the year of our test as a nation. Rather than taking up arms to kill one another and terrifying innocent and ordinary Nigerians, adults in this nation should take up our voter’s cards and go to the polls.”

“The future of Nigeria will be far more glorious, more peaceful than her past, and so it shall be for you too. Every year will be happier for you, more glorious, more prosperous and more peaceful, in Jesus’ name.”

“We stand at the gates of a new nation and we see its lights shining bright. The nation of God’s promises, a nation of opportunities, of equity and justice, a secure and prosperous nation, a nation of laws and righteousness.”

“Even if what we see today seems bleak, and dark, we are confident that God who owns the heavens and the earth will fulfil His promises concerning this nation.”
