United Kingdom-based church, The Envoy Nation, has celebrated Nigeria’s 62nd Independence.
The church in Leicester joined other Nigerians across the globe to mark the occasion.
Adorned in different green and white attires, members assembled at the Clock Tower in the City Centre.
They sang, danced and appreciated God for the love and unity among Nigerians despite ethnic, political and religious differences.
Speaking with reporters, Senior Pastor, Dele Osunmakinde, said the church was celebrating Nigeria because it believed in its greatness despite the challenges.

“We are doing this because we believe in the destiny of our nation. Our message on Nigeria’s 62nd independence is that our nation will rise again”.
“Nigeria will fulfill its destiny. We know things are not what it should be in our motherland, but there is hope. Look at these Nigerians in the United Kingdom gathered here this morning. They gathered here to celebrate because they still have faith that Nigeria will be great again”.
“So, wherever you are, Nigeria or abroad, don’t lose faith in Nigeria. Nigeria will rise again. Nigeria will be saved and Nigeria will flourish again. That is the message we are taking away from this gathering of Nigerians in Leicester. And of course, we are capping it up by saying “God Bless Nigeria”.
