Senior Pastor of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA), Biodun Fatoyinbo, has encouraged Nigerian youths to rise above limitations and pursue their purpose with faith and confidence.
In a video message that has since gone viral on social media, the cleric urged young Nigerians to take responsibility for shaping their future and to approach life with boldness and determination despite prevailing economic and social challenges.
“The land of Nigeria has been set before you; go forward and take the land,” he said. “Move with wisdom and understanding. Take advantage of the opportunities around you. You’re not too small to win. Be positive and make bold steps. Decide to change the narrative of your family. Be the first to break new ground. For you can fail alone, but you cannot fail with God.”
The message focuses on faith as a foundation for resilience and success, with Fatoyinbo emphasizing that partnership with God removes the fear of failure. He encouraged young people to see themselves as agents of transformation capable of breaking generational barriers and redefining their family stories.
The remarks have resonated widely among youths, particularly young professionals and entrepreneurs navigating Nigeria’s challenging socio-economic environment. Many social media users described the message as timely and uplifting.
Observers note that religious leaders continue to play a significant role in motivating young Nigerians, especially as issues such as unemployment, migration and economic uncertainty dominate public discourse. Analysts say messages that blend spiritual conviction with personal responsibility often strike a chord with a generation seeking hope and direction.
