The Bishop of Diocese of Kwara (Anglican Communion) and Chairman Christian Association of Nigeria,Kwara State branch, Right Reverend Sunday Adewole made the call while delivering his Christmas Sermon tittle “Bohold The King ” at the Cathedral of St -Barnabas ,Sabo- Oke Ilorin.
He said government should make provisions for the citizens to farm or venture into private enterprise to make them self reliant.
Right Reverend Adewole advised Christians and other Nigerians to shun laziness and work hard to feed their families.
According to him the era of searching for white-collar Job has gone, adding that everyone needs to start a trade before it is too late.
He advised Christians to have faith in God and serve him with all sincerity.

He urged Christians to live their life in conformity with the teachings of Jesus Christ.
He said ” You know A king is a ruler over a kingdom when we are celebrating Jesus Christ, we are celebrating the kingdom of God and he is the ruler over that kingdom, it is expedited for the subject to acclimatize themselves to their ruler to love him and to serve him these are the message of hope we are bringing to everybody, to a Christian throughout the whole world that they should behold their king the one that came and died for them, he came as a savior, he is coming back as a church. We beg each and everyone of the believers to please live their lives in conformity to this King so that they can be part of that kingdom when he tarries. It is through we are passing through a very hard time in our country but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Christ has the ability he can bring message out of our mess, if we rely on him, if we believe in him, if we serve him, he will change our fortune and things will work well for us not only individual but as a nation.
“Next year everybody should not be lazy, they should pray for the government, they should do whatever they can do to have their living not waiting for white collar jobs. People should do one thing or the other to feed their family so that when we do that banditary, armed robbery will be minimal the government on their part, should try as much as possible to provide an enabling environment for those that are willing to work either in the farm settlement or in their private enterprises with this our country will be better
