PRAYERS ONLY SOLUTION TO BRING BACK NIGERIA TO RIGHT TRACK, SAYS GOVERNOR ABIODUN

The Governor pointed out that  prayer is a  promoter of  peace and when there  is no peace, nothing would be  achievable in the country, emphasizing that  his administration believed so much in the efficacy of prayers  because it has helped  and  guided his ‘Building our future together agenda’  

“A lot of Nigerians should change their bad attitudes. People can pray but if they have wrong attitudes and beliefs, it counters prayers. Greediness, disobedient and other immoral behaviors are counterproductive to prayers, so Nigerians have to moderate their behaviours to make sure that the things they do are in line with their prayers” he said
