Bala Mohammed who was speaking during a Christmas rally organised by the State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) said that, “There is no issue of a political party now, pray for APC and PDP to succeed in working for the people of the country.”
“If Mr President does not perform creditable, it will affect even us in the state. We need to work together, synergse and ensure that the people get the dividends of democracy.”
He further stressed that prayer is very important in changing situations for good saying that, “God is always ready to answer our prayers. Let us pray for more money from the Federal Government for the development of our state.”
