25,000 Pastors To Hold Prayers For Buhari In Lagos by henchamb(m): 4:04am On Mar 08, 2015
25,000 pastors and evangelists in the South-West are to hold a special prayer session for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari, and his running mate, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, on Tuesday, at Teslim Balogun Stadium, Lagos.

According to the coordinator of the programme, Bishop Kayode Williams, the ministers of God will come together to seek divine support for Buhari and Osinbajo.

Williams, who revealed that the spiritual exercise, tagged “Divine Restoration of Nigeria Glory”, is being organized to disabuse the minds of Nigerians about the wrong impression being created about Buhari. “We are four spearheading this prayer session: My humble self, Rev. Moses Iloh, Archbishop Magnus Atilade and Deacon Ayo Opadokun. We are against wrong information being fed members of the public about Buhari.

For those of us that followed the track record of Buhari while he was in public service, we know that this man is not a religious bigot. Buhari is an upright man and not anti-Christ as some people want to portray him,” he declared.

While describing the prayer session as a unique event, Williams implored Nigerians not to use religion to confuse people or to divide Nigerians.

“First and foremost, we should see ourselves as one. We are all Nigerians. We should not allow politics to divide us or cause bitterness among us. We should love one another. It is wrong for anybody or group to say Christians are against Buhari – to us, Buhari is a righteous Nigerian, and Christianity preaches righteousness, and we want righteous people in leadership, and this is why we are organizing this prayer for Buhari to be the next leader of this country”, he stated.

While reminding Nigerians that the country is a secular state, Williams implored Nigerians to be tolerant of one another’s faith, views and opinions.

The cleric revealed that the programme will have in attendance as special guests Buhari, and Osinbajo and other eminent Personalities.

Good one from the real men of God. Most of us know Buhari is not a religious bigot as some people want us to believe. The people who have been spreading falsehood about Buhari are mainly from certain part of Nigeria. They know nothing except to blackmail and lie about Buhari. We know them very well.

Now I expect the children of hate, bitterness and blackmail to come here and do what they know how to do best.

As much as I support Buhari, this religious gambit has got to stop.

I don't want anybody to tie the General's name to any religious group.

The 25,000 pastors should spend their time praying for Jonathan's safe trip back to Otuoke.

One good advice, in this life. Learn to speak only for ur self, not because u like him or want to vote him means u know him
Only God knows his mind, n only God's will shall b done.
I wish these pastors could spend their tym praying for Nigeria. D peace of Nigeria, n ask for God's will .
There is always something about political pastors..
Me I say, Let d will of God b done

Where were they in the first 3 efforts made by the amiable General? They were busy voting other candidates. Ayo Opadokun is an APC card carrying member (correct me if I'm wrong) so I see some measure of desperation in this. GMB does not need this.

It is absolutely unnecessary and the continued ab-use of God and His things will soon backfire on these politicians who give no thoughts to expanding God's kingdom on earth but their partisan kingdoms.

As some of the jokers on this forum would say, the fire from heaven that will fall on these politician pastors is on fuel queue.

When Buhari was head of state with decree and power his deputy also a Muslim, why did he not enforce sharia so is it now in a democratic system it will happen?

I am a Christian and I support GMB.

Say no to bigotry!

You can only call them hungry political jobbers if they are doing it for money. I'm sure noone is giving them any money for this. Buhari does not distribute money like Jonathan.

And also, if all those men of God that you mentioned are not there, are you saying God will not hear their prayers? How do you even know whether the pastors conducting the prayer rally are spiritually rated higher than by heaven by the men of Gos you're mentioning?

However, I also I'm wondering whether Buhari really needs this.
