The Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, has advised Nigerians to always pray for the country and its leaders.
Obi gave the advice at the Service of Songs of Chief Okuji Awa, a former Deputy Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, which held at the Lagos Presbyterian Church Yaba, on Thursday in Lagos.
The former Anambra state governor, who noted that the country was going through a difficult phase, said that Nigeria possessed everything to be great.
According to him, the major problem facing the country is poor leadership and wastage of public resources.
“Whenever I have the privilege of speaking to Nigerians, I will say, please remember Nigeria in your prayers.
“Remember Nigeria in your prayers. We are going through a difficult time.
“Always put your prayer points to God to touch the hearts of leaders, including me, to use public money for public good.It is not our money. The stealing has to stop.
“They (Nigerians) must pray to God to help them (leaders) to think about the future of the society their children will live in.
“So pray for us. Do remember me and everybody who is listening in prayers, so that God will change our hearts to think for the country,” Obi said.
