After Pope, if e like, make e branch go Saudi Arabia go pray for Mecca, Buhari will be President of Nigeria from 2019-2023, after which he will hand over to Prof. Yemi Osinbajo. We ain't playing.
Only in your household. Infact may the leadership style of buhari and everything about his governance style and his level of transparency be your possession. Say amen without adding more words if you sincerely believe that buhari has been doing well or keep silent and accept the truth for your good.

if APC's Osinbajo runs to Baba Adeboye for prayer our PDP VP should also runs to the Pope for spiritual blessings.

I am a Catholic. But the catholicization of politics by Obi in Anambra state leaves much to be desired. Same route he is threading now.
I doubt you are Catholic because I've only heard this sort of view from jealous Anglicans. What concerns politics with where a person chooses to worship or do his Thanksgiving or visit for blessings. Its nothing but envy. Obi catholicized politics in what sense. As in he took house resolutions to the bishop for approval before signing or what exactly. It's disgruntled folks like you for example that politicize the governor's faith and not the other way round

"Although, its unclear the purpose of Obi's visit but its believed to be for prayers and holy blessings"

Obi relied on sectarian religion to become a governor in Anambra state. He should be wise enough not to play that religious card this time around. Too much of everything is counterproductive. Even if he succeeds in convincing all Catholics to vote PDP , that won't save them from defeat. Nigeria is a mix of different faiths .

The Redeem Church Pastor Osinbanjo played out fantastically well with Buhari. Immediately, he was chosen, they all quickly forgot about all the Buhari talks about Sharia which they use in preaching against Buhari in their churches. Lol grin

AND WITH THE MASSIVE MEMBERSHIP OF REDEEM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY, YOU CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT IT MEANT AT THE POLLING BOOTHS.

Just like those agitating for Biafra have now rallied around another FULANI and a MUSLIM because he has chosen one of them to be his VP. ITS ALL ABOUT SELFISH INTEREST OF THOSE WHO SEEK AFTER POWER BUT THE POOR MASSES ARE TOO POOR MINDED TO UNDERSTAND, AND WHEN THEY LOOSE, THEY RETURN TO USING RELIGION AND TRIBALISM FOR CAUSING CHAOS EVERYWHERE WITH THE POOR MINDED POOR AT THE RECEIVING END. grin

The more reason I believe religion and politics should not mix. All politicians should drop their religious garb at home.

No way I will argue this with you except you lived in Anambra state during that era.

Its almost impossible because (DEMOCRACY) is a game of SENTIMENTS. And religion is among what is use in fueling sentiments in favour of or against, others are tribe, race and e.t.c. That's how it's played everywhere in this so called modern world of intellectual VACUITY.

Docadams, you can see, you have immediately been attacked and asserted A JEALOUS ANGLICAN.

"The whole process is one of false pretences and ignoble concealments. No educated man stating plainly the elementary notions that every educated man holds about the matters that principally concern government, could be elected to office in a democratic state, save perhaps by a miracle. His frankness would arouse fears, and those fears would run against him; it is his business to arouse fears that will run in favour of him. Worse, he must not only consider the weaknesses of the mob, but also the prejudices of the minorities that prey upon it. Some of these minorities have developed a highly efficient technique of intimidation. They not only know how to arouse the fears of the mob; they also know how to awaken its envy, its dislike of privilege, its hatred of its betters. " DISEASE OF DEMOCRACY by Henry Mencken.

The Great Napoleon said "Religion is a power, a political engine and if there was no God, I would have to invent one"

For example, take a look at the young man below, he believes the Igbo politician having met a Holy Man, has been canonized and as thus, he is undoubtedly "Holier and better " than the 'devil' in Aso rock.

Peter Obi telling Pope why PDP is better than APC while other communicants were standing on the line.
