Gov Mutfwang Tells Plateau People What To Do During Hardship

Jos, Nov 17, 2024(NAN)Gov. Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau has urged the citizens of the state to trust in God amid the current economic hardship in the country.

The governor gave the advice at the 2024 Annual Thanksgiving Service of the Headquarters Church of the Church of Christ in Nations (COCIN), on Sunday in Jos.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the service had the theme “Living a Life of Thanksgiving and Praise”.

Reacting to a special ministration by a group of deaf and dumb worshipers during the service, Mutfwang said that the ability to be happy in life remains a choice.

He advised residents, particularly Christians, to keep faith alive and trust God at all times in spite of the current challenges.

“Happiness is a choice, circumstances may not always be good, but you have a choice to be happy.

“Your happiness does not depend on others, but on you and God, so be happy at all times.

“I want to urge you to continue to present our matters to God; we must have deep faith in spite of our challenges as nation.

“As governor, I have reasons to be anxious about many things but from time to time, the Holy Spirit reminds me of the scripture that says anxiety and worry don’t solve problems, only God can do that,” he said.

The governor, who said that leading the state had been challenging, however, thanked the people for their support and prayers.

“With your support and prayers, we will continue to do everything we can to make life better for our people.

“We are looking for ways and means of breaking the cycle of poverty so that prosperity can come to Plateau,” he said

In a sermon, Rev. Caleb Dami advised Christians to be grateful to God at all times.

Speaking,  Sen. Dachung Mwadkon and Sen. Diket Plang, representing Plateau North and Central Senatorial Districts, respectively, called on the people to support the current administration in the state to succeed.

NAN reports that the Speaker of the State’s House of Assembly, Mr Gabriel Dewan, and Justice David Mann, the Chief Judge of the state, among other government officials, accompanied the governor to the church services.  (NAN)(www.nanng.org)
