Mr. Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, has urged Christians to pray for the election of a leader who will use tax dollars for the common good.
This was said by Obi at the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria’s (17th) Biennial Conference, which was held in Yenagoa.
He said that Nigeria had experienced a lot and added that the Church’s prayers had kept the nation united.
He said: “I want to ask for your prayers for Nigeria as we gather here, I will ask for prayer points.
“My prayer points are as we go for election, may God Almighty ensure that Nigeria elects somebody with character, somebody who is competent, somebody who will respect our religion rights.
“May God continue to touch politicians, so that we use public money for public good.
“I do not think without prayers Nigeria will be where it is today, Nigeria has gone through what no country has ever gone through and is still standing and only your prayers can save us.
“Please do remember your country in your prayers,” he said.
Pastor Enoch Adeboye and Bishop David Oyedepo are among those attending the PFN’s 17th National Biennial Conference.
Others are Pastor David Ibiyeomie, Bishop Mike Okonkwo, Rev. (Dr) Felix Omobude and the National President of PFN, Bishop Francis Wale-Oke. (NAN)
