In a move to address the current socio-economic challenges in Nigeria, President Bola Tinubu has been called upon to convoke a national prayer for the redemption of the federation.
Pastor Toye Ebijomore, the General Overseer of God’s Anointed and Blessed Church International, Akure, made the call on Sunday while addressing newsmen.
He said there is no nation without its challenges.
Toye called on the President to heed his earlier warnings to avert some looming calamities.
He said, “Whenever God wants to give lasting solutions to the protracted problems of a nation, He will send one of His prophets to tell some visions openly but to seal certain ones and share them with a particular leader or leaders. I have truly said the open visions and hope that Mr. President will convoke the national prayer as a starting point for the solution to the nation’s problems.
“I must avow, once more, that many people are only unfortunately being either deliberately or ignorantly blaming the famine, hardship,, and various crises in Nigeria on the policies of the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. My knowledge of the scripture exposes that famine is spiritual because it is the Lord who calls for it on land, and He alone gives the solution.
“Whenever there is famine, it does last for years and no human ideas or hunger protests can solve it but the intervention of the Lord only, or, until all the generations that did wickedly to God are wasted out of the land, unless they repent and return to God in prayer.”
However, Ebijomore, who urged Tinubu to be closer to God, said he would overcome all forms of opposition against him now and ahead, noting that the country’s current situation would have been worse if not for the prayers of the elect of God, asking for the need of the national prayer that would probably involve all religions.
