The Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, said that the present economic hardship faced by Nigerians needs God’s intervention.
Oba Akanbi said this during the fourth annual “Odun Olodunmare” celebration in his palace, in Iwo.
He also stated that Nigerians need to go back to God and ask for forgiveness and wisdom to solve the various economic hardships in the country.
“When things are going like this, we should take everybody back to God, just as I am doing today.
“So that if there is any sin of being an ingrate or ungrateful to God, then he can forgive us.
“We need God’s intervention, and all of us need to go back to this one God, who will give us the wisdom so that all these curses will be removed from our heads,” he said.
“If we are not ungrateful to share the only thing that God wants from us, then the owner of the world, who put all these resources in our care, will teach us how to use them without any foreign intervention,” he said.
“It is not only today that economy has been bad in the country. There is no government since independence that has not experienced economic hardship.
“During Jonathan and Buhari administrations, people complained and after eight years of Tinubu’s administration, people will still complain,” he said.
“Nobody deserves to be worshipped except God, and we cannot share this with anybody.
“Today is about culture and tradition, and that is why you can see both Muslims and Christians here. Worshipping God, which is devoid of deity worship,” the traditional ruler said.
