The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has urged
Nigerian youths to focus on hard work and creativity.
The apex religious organization condemned the “crazy idea of
get-rich-quick-syndrome” on Friday.
CAN Chairman in South-East, Rev. Fr. Abraham Nwali, spoke at
an event organized by the Youth Wing Christian Association of Nigeria
(YOWICAN).
He advised youths to pursue a profession in order to
contribute to the present and future wellbeing of the society.
Mwali told them to exercise patience, work hard and put God
first in all they do.
“Be creative for tomorrow’s sake, not for today. Focus on
becoming someone great”, NAN quoted him saying.
“Youths should not be deceived. God is the One that owns
genuine wealth. Learn from great men in history, they did not make it
overnight”.
The cleric added that in the fullness of time, God rewards
hard work, innovation and perseverance.
CAN further cautioned young Nigerians against the use of
hard drugs and friendship with bad peers.
“All tiers of government should prioritize employment and
skill acquisition provisions for youths,” Nwali added.
