At an iftar hosted by his friends in Lafia last Friday, which yours sincerely was among the organisers, Senator Ahmed Wadada Aliyu urged all his supporters to always place their trust in God,
as he consistently reminds his audience at every occasion he attends, the importance of trusting God. He stressed that no one can be certain of reaching the year 2027, so why should one worries himself, emphasizing that everything in this world is designed by God.
Yes, there is a timeless reassurance in the words: “With Trust In God One has nothing to worry about” And God is sufficient for His servant.” For believers, this statement is not just a line of faith, it is a way of life. It reminds us that when a person places his trust firmly in God, he draws strength from a source far greater than human plans and far greater than any political intrigues.
In our rough and competitive terrain of politics, the message above becomes more meaningful one can only ignore at his perils.
Certainly one cannot aspire to something in life without opposition, and unseen maneuvering by some enemies. Yet, for those who anchor their aspirations in faith, the journey carries a different kind of calm. Men of faith would understand that while people may plot and strategize, the final outcome always rests with God.
This perspective is particularly relevant when reflecting on the political journey of Senator Ahmed Wadada Aliyu and his aspiration to become the governor of Nasarawa State in 2027. In recent times, there have been whispers of underground efforts by some individuals working quietly to undermine his chances. Yes such tactics are not unusual in politics; behind-the-scenes calculations, alliances, and counter-alliances are part of the game.
However, faith teaches a different lesson: what God has destined cannot be blocked by human schemes.
For Senator Wadada, the guiding belief appears clear, God is sufficient for him. When a person holds firmly to this conviction, fear will certainly fade. Criticism will become easier to bear, opposition becomes less intimidating, and the path ahead becomes clearer.

The above scenario succinctly illustrates the position of Wadada and his team in the ongoing race for the governorship of Nasarawa State. Today Wadada has no fear of opponents. Opposition don’t intimadate and his path of becoming the governor of Nasarawa state is becoming more clearer by every passage of the day.
Interestingly, despite the subtle attempts by some to slow Wadada’s momentum, the opposite seems to be happening. By the passage of each day, Wadada’s prospects appear to be widening. More people are paying attention to his vision, more discussions are emerging about his potential leadership, and the political space around him continues to expand.
It is often said that when a cause aligns with sincerity and perseverance, it attracts its own momentum.
For political observers in Nasarawa state, the unfolding situation around Wadada offers a powerful reminder that those who rely on God do not walk alone. Their strength is not merely political; it is spiritual. And that kind of strength carries a resilience that cannot easily be shaken.
The position of our religious books are clear—whoever puts his trust in God, then God is sufficient for him. It is a promise that has comforted believers for generations. It reminds us that while people may plan, God plan remains supreme.
However as the road toward the 2027 governorship race in Nasarawa State gradually unfolds, many will watch how the political landscape evolves. But one lesson already stands firm: when a servant truly relies on God, worry has no place in his heart.
In the end, anyone who places his trust in God will find that God is sufficient for him, hence Wadada’s slogan: “In God we trust”
