Speaker of the Kogi State House of Assembly, Rt Hon Matthew Kolawole has charged Christians in Nigeria in general and Kogi State in particular to use this season of the celebration of the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ to offer prayers to God to heal the nation of the security menace bedeviling the country.
According to him, prayer is the master key that solves problems, hence it has become imperative for all to return to God in prayers soliciting for divine intervention of the Almighty to lift the cross of banditry, kidnapping and insurgency.
In a statement issued by his chief press secretary, Femi Olugbemi, he urged Kogites to emulate Jesus Christ who sacrificed Himself for the entire human race for us to be saved, stressing that in this season people should sacrifice their comfort by reaching out to the less privileged who may not be able to afford what it takes to celebrate well.
He admonished Nigerians to be more united in tackling the social vices that is becoming worrisome on daily basis, stressing that there is more hope in the united Nigeria.
He prayed that God will continue to keep the state safe while commending the State Government under the leadership of Governor Yahaya Bello for his proactiveness to keeping the safe from the criminals.
