President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday admitted that taking decisions on national issues is no easy task.
He, therefore, urged Nigerians to continue to pray to God to give him wisdom to take the right decisions that would not bring suffering to the people.
Jonathan spoke at the 2014 Christmas Carol organised by the Aso Villa Chapel at the old Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
According to him, “We pray that God should give those of us who are in charge the grace to do things with the fear of God. If we begin to do what is right in our own little way, this nation will survive.
“God knows why we are here. Nobody will place himself in any position without God. So God that gives all of us the opportunity will see us through.
“For me your servant today, I will continue to request for your prayers that God should give me the wisdom to do what is right in His sight.
“Because, it is quite challenging for a leader. For every subject that you want to take a decision, you will have multiple suggestions, some contradictory, some to the left, some to the right, some to the centre. But you must take a decision.
“It is only God that can guide you to take the rightful decision that will not bring suffering to your people.
“We will try our best and we will continue to do our best. We promise that any opportunity given to us, we will use it to serve mankind”.
