I totally agree with him. The problem of this country is not because of lack of prayers. I have told myself that anytime I'm in church and the pastor says "pray for Nigeria", I will pray for myself and family members instead.

Before I was born, people have been praying for this country still no change because prayers can't build infrastructures, stop corruption, stop Nepotism and all the ills bedevilling this country.

They say there's nothing prayer cannot do, but I don't think prayer can solve Naija's problem. I think overhauling our leadership would be better.

Wise words... The hard cold truth!!!

God has better things to do than keep trying to better a nation whose citizens are hell-bent on being unfortunate.

There’s difference between religion and spirituality. Religion is just to enslave and keep the masses in check. And of course, it walks hand in hand with the government ✨�

Who is Seun Kuti?



He is a realistic human being. One who has decided not to keep deceiving himself believing that with prayers one day sun will rise from the west and set in the east.

I come in peace
According to the bible:- Ps.11:3 ….if the foundation is faulty/destroyed/damaged what can the righteous do... , perhjaps nothing. Praying for Nigeria as a country will not change anything; the foundation of the country and her law is a big fallacy... just imagine the opening statement of our constitution - we the people..

The only prayer we can pray is for mark of exemption of one and his FAF..
I go in peace

I think Seun is right because looking at the present dispensation and derivation, it is only logical to withhold without withstanding or withdrawing the initial deposit in the account, thereby making it an advisory of yam and pineapple theory .
What am I saying?
If you look closely to the current agendum or ignoramus of Nigeria and pastors you will notice that the jacket and erosion can't shout without pocketing the river administration admirably

In Nigeria people pray for NEPA not to take light.
You pray for Nigeria today. Tomorrow price of foodstuff have increased by 20 or 50 percent in Nigeria
You pray against insecurity. You hear Bandits have started their wahala the day after.
Our pastors will say we should pray for our leaders today. By tomorrow you hear billions of Naira have been embezzled by these leaders.

Praying for Nigeria is a thing of Choice .... till today a lot of Americans prays for the Country every passing seconds . It has even become s slogan . " God bless America" God bless Nigeria ! Aga Seun Kuti talk another thing

God bless America has been the founding motto of the United States and it's totally different from praying for Nigeria. What Seun said is exactly what happens in developed countries. They kick out dysfunctional office holders and not hide in a hole and pray as we do here.

It's ridiculous how much Nigerians pray about practically every situation. When are we going to take our destiny In our own hands and adopt a different approach? You would think by now we would be the most successful nation on earth with the incessant prayers/ fasting.

Unfortunately, most of the successful countries lobally don't have a culture of praying religiously. Instead they take take the bull by the horns and put in the work neccesary to achieve greatness.

I am not discouraging anyone from praying , the fact is this approach has not worked for the nation ... for christs sake we are the poverty capital of the world and a country plagued by armed robbery, extrajudicial killings, banditry, kidnapping, illiteracy, corruption etc and we the citizens have been praying for over half a century!!!! prayer wont resolve these pressing issues to be honest

The middle east has some of the most religious and prayerful Muslims globally and yet it is the most volatile region on earth.

Lollittaa:
"... men ought always to pray and not to faint" Like 18:1
We're called to pray ALWAYS, for and in every situation. Telling pastors not to urge their members not to pray, is like telling a farmer not to take a hoe and cutlass to the farm.
Why pastors are often the focus of these people is what I don't understand. How many percent of the Nigerian population are pastors?
Are pastors democratically elected?
What's the army and police meant for then?

Stop praying and start working is what he's saying not everything should be about scripture or what your God says it is high time Nigerians stop being so overly superstitious and religious and start taking action and fighting for what they want

Thank you it's time for us to start building up our own political movements and rallying together to get the right people into power if we don't do that then how are we going to get the Nigeria we want?

Your opinion, prayer is talking to God, Him does all things in his time and not your. As Christian we are commanded to pray, but cannot force God. Christ is coming soon repent to avoid hell and destruction

It is quite obvious that Nigeria was created in 1914 and expired in 2013.

The only solution to the problems in Nigeria is DIVISION.

God has blessed every ethnicity in Nigeria greatly with available resources to sustain them.

Why is our leaders suffering Nigerians when they knew that Nigeria has expired?
Re: Seun Kuti Tells Religious Leaders To Stop Praying For Nigeria by iramure(m): 12:28pm On Sep 13, 2021
Prayer is nonsense. We pray for what good government should have provided for her citizens in nigeria.
We build gigantic edifice worth billions for prayers...
We gather everyday of the week for prayers...
We litter every street with worship centres....
We respect charlatans who called themselves men of god as god himself
We demonize our culture and embrace foreign ones...
Our god of men are billionaires.....
Yet the country is terribly sick!
Is this not an indication that religion is nothing but PURE WASTE OF TIME?...
LET'S DUMP THIS SHIT AND START REASONING LIKE HUMANS..
our god of men will oppose this because it's thier source of wealth.
