The cleric expressed a strong conviction that only prayers would turn around the fortune of the country while urging rise up to the occasion.

He said, “God will not come in the physical to make a change for us in Nigeria. We need to function in the capacity of who Jesus is. As a body of Christ, we must not fold our arms or close our eyes against all the problems confronting the nation. This visit is prophetic and by our prayers and supplications, there will be an end to sorrow, darkness and tribulations in our dear country.”
