Already the state capital is agog with members of different churches across the country who came into the state adorned in their different attires holding banners showcasing the event which will start on Friday.Â
The chairman of the organising committee of the Total Experience, Pastor Ik Anyalewechi in an interview said 10,000 Christians from outside the state are expected to participate in the crusade.Â
He also said 25 churches had indicated their interest to be part of the event.Â
According to him, the event was designed to pray against wrong things going on in the society and the insecurity bedevilling the land.
“We are holding the crusade in Kaduna because of the things that are going on in the country today. And a lot of things have been going on in Kaduna.Â
“Kaduna has become a centre of attraction, but unfortunately for the wrong reasons.
“Though the state government is doing its best to save the situation, but its best has not protected lives and property enough.
“And as a responsible body of Christ and community of Christ, we have to humble ourselves and pray to God because the Bible says if the people humble themselves and pray to God, God will hear their prayers heal their nation.
“We as a church may not be in government, but we have a connection to government in heaven. There is nothing God cannot do.
“We are not only praying against insecurity, we are also praying for the needs of the people because their needs is multifaceted. The people need security, protection of lives and property.”
