You’re Not Better Than Those Who Died Because Of Coronavirus In 2020 – Obasanjo

Ex Nigerian president, Olusegun Obasanjo has come out to urge Nigerians to always give thanks to God.

He recently revealed this at the second annual Thanksgiving Service of the state chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria held at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library, Abeokuta.

According to him, everyone alive is not better than those who were killed by covid-19 in 2020, therefore, if we fail to give thanks, we are failing a very significant duty of yours as a Christian.

He added that we cannot be a servant of God if we cannot give thanks to Him.

His words, “It is our duty to give thanks to God. You will be the most ungrateful person if you do not perform the duty of giving thanks to God.

“In all circumstances, give thanks. Therefore, if you fail to give thanks, you are failing a very significant duty of yours as a Christian.

“Last year 2020 was a very challenging year not only for us in Nigeria, not only for us in Africa but for the whole world.”

“The fact that you are alive calls for giving thanks to God. It doesn’t matter which way you look at it, that those who you know as a result of Covid-19 are no more here with us not because you are better than they are, more knowledgeable than they are, it’s just by the grace of God.

“And if God gives you that grace, to still remain on earth, maybe for a purpose and I believe part of the purpose is for you to continue to serve humanity and to serve God. You cannot be a servant of God if you cannot give thanks to him.

“The purpose of being here is to perform our duty as Christians, by giving thanks to God.”
