Anyim raises hope, urges Nigerians to work for, expect a better 2022

Amidst the gloom occasioned by the current harsh economic realities, frontline presidential aspirant, Senator Anyim Pius Anyim, has urged Nigerians to keep hope alive, saying that 2022 would be a better year, though collective efforts would be required to achieve that.

The former Senate President, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), raised hopes in his 2021 Christmas Message, in which he also canvassed continued trust in God.

The one-time Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) said: “We all started this year 2021 with high hopes and expectations. Naturally, as individuals, families, communities and indeed a country, we will retain memories of good and not too good experiences in one area of our lives or another in the year 2021. However, whatsoever may have come our way this year, we must give thanks to God for sparing our lives.

“For our country, the challenges we have faced in 2021 may have been daunting. We may have been stretched almost beyond limits in every facet of life. But there is good news. Our problems don’t define us. Nigerians are hardworking, peace-loving, accommodating and happy people.

“We have always overcome our challenges when we pulled together. Our collective will and determination will always be stronger than our problems. Let us therefore look forward to 2022 with renewed hope, optimism and abiding faith in God. Together we will make Nigeria great again. I wish Nigerians a joyful Christmas and a peaceful, and prosperous 2022.”
