The All Progressives Congress women will hold a national prayer summit for quick recovery of the President Muhammadu Buhari.

APC Deputy National Women leader, Tina Ekwueme-Adike,  who disclosed this to newsmen in Owerri on Friday, said they were worried by speculations over the health of President Buhari.

She said that the Prayer Summit would be organised by the office of the APC deputy national women leader at Enugu and to be attended by mainly APC women from the entire Southern zone.

She said that the prayer which would be non-denominational cuts across all political parties.

“The prayer is specifically meant to implore God to re-enact  back those  values which Africans  and Nigerians  in particular  are noted for, especially respecting human values and praying for our leaders,’’ she said.

Ekwueme-Adike condemned what she described as the unwarranted and unnecessary death wishes circulating in the social media on the health of the president.

The APC deputy national women leader reminded Nigerians that  to die was never for the elderly only but also for the young and infants  alike.

“Those speculating the death of someone, his or her business are rather putting their own life and business at risk because the law of nature will befall them,’’ she said.

She urged Nigerian women to demonstrate a sense of commitment, patriotism, and selflessness in their daily life, noting that it would surely be well for the nation in the near future.

She explained that the proposed prayer summit for the nation and its leadership was also for all Nigerians irrespective of their political parties, religion and tribal afflictions.

Members of Boko Haram under the leadership of Abubakar Shekau has released a video showing thousands of its members praying during recently concluded Eid ceremony; the militant group showed members in three separate praying grounds in Borno and the Lake Chad area.

 

However, the leader of the faction, Shekau was conspicuously missing in the video. The group used the opportunity to threaten President Muhammadu Buhari, insisting its members are still many and remain resilient despite the military action that killed scores of its foot soldiers and reclaimed Nigerian territory under its control.

Iyiade Raymond Dotun: An Open Letter To CAN President, Papa Ayo Oritsejafor

CALL UPON ME AND I WILL ANSWER YOU.

Sir, i am very delighted to write this letter to you and i am totally convinced that by the time you will be reading this, the spirit of the most high God will descend upon you and convey the originality and importance of the content of this letter to you. The major reason why i have chosen to write directly to you sir, is because i know you as a man that understands the principles and efficacy of spiritual violence and spiritual rage. You carry the characteristics of my heaven abode Apostle Peter. You can do almost anything for the sake of the gospel and i know without any iota of doubt that the spirit of the living God has filled every position in your life. My respect for your prophetic declarations is enveloped in the vault of my heart. There is nothing you can do either good or not good that can remove you from my list of highly respected men of God because i know you will not do what the spirit of God in you has not ordained or confirmed just like the Senate are in the position to confirm ministerial nominees.

The major reason why i write this letter directly to you would have been defeated if i had not appreciated God in your life in the first paragraph of this piece and now i can confidently proceed to the major part of this letter knowing fully well that the Lord has prepared a space in your heart to receive the words as they emerge.
Sir, a lot of people say that Nigeria will be great. I believe and agree with them but greatness cannot be easily achieved if there is a deficit of the needed force to drive greatness to position. Nigeria has a bright future but there are so many forces that stands on Her way to becoming very great. I must say that these forces do not care if Nigeria splits up like the red sea, these forces do not care if Nigeria slips off and scatter like a mirror. Sir, let me tell you a secret, in the face of God, Nigeria is a mirror of the world. Whenever God looks down to the earth and sees Nigeria, whatever condition or let me say whatever spiritual status he sees in Nigeria, that He’ll assume for the whole world. Sir, for greatness to be achieved, one needs to employ a greater force. Nigeria is becoming too cold spiritually, regardless of the number of churches that has evolved in the past few years. Excuse sir, the spiritual watchmen at the gates of this country are fast asleep and a lot of ungodly and unholy things have found their ways into this great city of God. There is a need for us to fortify ourselves and launch into the extravagance of that greater force.

I would like to restrict my reference to 1kings 18:1-46. So many years ago, in the days of Prophet Elijah;a great man of God, there was famine in the land of Samaria just as there is in Nigeria. The lord has promised to send rain but there are some forces militating against this promise and this is why we need to act fast. We need to challenge these forces with a greater force just like Elijah did. Elijah challenged four hundred and fifty men in the name of the Lord. Sir, the problems in this nation has challenged we the Elijah of this generation but we have always dodged it. This is the time for us to awake and utterly destroy the causative agents of these problems with a greater force;THE FORCE OF PRAYER. Elijah was just a man of God but in Nigeria here, we have many a man of God.

We are fit for this battle. In just one day, Elijah was able to defeat four hundred and fifty prophets and i know that in just one day, God can give us victory over the problems of this Nation if we lift our voices to him in prayer. Sir please let a day be set aside, a day that all the prophetic voices in Nigeria will come together under one roof and lift up their prophetic voices interceding on behalf of this country. I know that People are praying for this country but Lord i thank you, forgive my sins, protect me and my babe kind of prayer is not carrying enough fire to quash the problem we face in Nigeria. This is why we should all come together in one accord and cry to the Lord. We have you, Pastor Adeboye, Bishop Oyedepo, Pastor Iyiade and a host of other anointed men of God. Let us face the problems of this country in a spiritual battle. Let us pray together that the good Lord should send the rain of peace, blessing multiple ideas and other good things to this nation. God bless you sir. God bless Nigeria.

Chief Imam Cancels Special Ramadan Prayer In Abuja Mosque

Posted on by

Sheikh Muhammad Khalid, the Chief Imam of Apo Legislator’s Quarter’s Jumat Mosque has cancelled the special i’tikaaf prayer normally observed by Muslims during the last 10 days of Ramadan in that Mosque. I’tikaaf is a special prayer offered my Muslims during the last 10 days of Ramadan.

During that period, a Muslim is required to retire to the Mosque and remain in seclusion solely with the intention of offering prayers and supplication to Allah. Khalid announced the cancellation of the prayer in an interview in Abuja on Wednesday.

He said the move had become necessary following increased insecurity in the country. He added that “everyone can testify to the fact that insecurity is becoming higher; bombings have become the order of the day in the North, especially in the North Eastern part of the country. “We need to join hands with government to do whatever we can possibly do in our capability to tackle it headlong.

“However, it is a very difficult task to tackle because of the faceless nature of the Boko Haram members that have been terrorising Nigeria.’’

Khalid then urged other Imams not to allow the special prayer in their Mosques so as not to jeopardise the security of potential participants. He said that allowing people to gather in the Mosque for the special prayer was not safe and called for attitudinal change by Nigerians in order to move the country forward.

He urged the Federal Government to create jobs for the teeming unemployed youths to avoid restiveness, stressing that “providing employment for the youths will take them off the streets. “Taking the youths off the streets will go a long in reducing crimes and criminality in the country.’’

The chief Imam said security was a collective responsibility, hence it should not be left in the hands of government alone.

Akiolu, who spoke in Yoruba language, said that when Buhari came to his palace during the campaign period, he was three hours behind schedule. He said that Buhari complained of bad roads and he told him that when he becomes the president he should help the state to reconstruct the road. The Oba said he was sure that God would give him the power to do it.

Akiolu urged the incoming Governor of Lagos, to do what he promised the people. The prayer was conducted by Imam Mujitabah Giwa, the Alawiye of Lagos and his league of Imams. Giwa prayed for peaceful coexistence in Lagos and also for political leaders in the country. Some traditional rulers in Lagos as well as white cap chiefs were present at the prayer session. Chief Rasak Okoya, Chairman of Eleganza Group was also among some dignitaries present.
