class="align-left">The governor said Christians must not fail to take advantage of the commandments of God, if they desire a quick end to the many ills plaguing the nation, stressing: “Let us remember that whenever we pray, the prayer is incomplete if we do not pray for the country and its leaders as we are instructed by God.

“Nigeria today is going through the wilderness experience. This is the time for everybody that is a believer to heed the call to pray for our country because God has assured us that when we humble ourselves and seek His face and turn from our wicked ways, He will hear, and forgive our sins and heal our land.
