Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, yesterday in Lagos Assures Nigerians, especially the parent of Leah Sharibu, that the Christian girl still in the custody of Boko Haram terrorists would soon be set free.
Osinbajo, spoke while addressing participants at a Cross Concert 2018 organised by Christ Reaching Out To Save Souls, in commemoration of the Easter Celebration, convened by Rev You Kasali, in Lagos.
The VP, while describing the Cross, on which Jesus Christ was nailed as a symbol of “victory” for those who believed in Lord Jesus, said victory was always assured in every challenge.
According to him,“As I understand the Cross, I believe that what happened was so unique. Apart from the death, there was a trial before victory. Christ was accused of many crimes and given a death sentence.
What Christ went through was beyond dying. He had already taken the pain that is why we can proudly say that the Cross is an evident of our own victory.“Leah has stood up to stand by her faith and truth.
O! I am certain on my mind the Cross is able to deliver her. I am excited that we Christians are praying for Leah who is still being held captive by insisting she will stand by the Cross of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The most exciting thing that a man can have is the knowledge here on earth that we are Victor and in Heaven we will be counted among those that will reign with Christ in Heaven. There is nothing better than that. It is a win-win situation.
