Easter: Intensify Prayers For Nigeria – Ekweremadu
The Deputy Senate President, Sen. Ike Ekweremadu, has called on all Nigerians to intensify Prayer efforts for the country.
Ekweremadu in his special Easter message, released in Abuja on Saturday signed by his Special Adviser on Media, Uche Anichukwu, encouraged Nigerians to seize the occasion of the celebration to pray against the wanton killings, destruction, general insecurity, economic hardships and hunger that currently pervades the Country.
The statement reads in part, “On the occasion of this Easter celebration, I call for deeper reflections over the affairs of the nation. Let us pray as patriots. Importantly, let us invoke the resurrection powers of the risen Christ to intervene in the affairs of this nation.
“Let us pray for an end to the wanton killings and destruction, general insecurity, economic hardships and hunger in the land. Let us pray God to imbue our leaders across all political divides with the milk of human kindness and deep insights to lead the nation on the social, economic and political revival, and national unity.”
