The Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuade, has said a woman will rule Nigeria someday.
Speaking on Sunday at the Seventh Convention of the Hour of Mercy Prayer
Life Ministry at Akinyele Local Government Area of Oyo State, Oba Sijuade said women are qualified to rule Nigeria.
He said: “I can see a woman ruling Nigeria in the future because they are equally talented to lead the country.”
Oba Sijuade, who inaugurated the Mountain Guest House and Restaurant, urged women to acquire standard education to prepare them for the task of ruling the country.
He urged Nigerians to emulate the owner of the ministry, Mr. Moses Kasali, who he described as selfless and honest.
Advising Nigerians to be prayerful, Oba Sijuade said: “Prayer is the only solution to the country’s problems.”
Kasali urged Nigerians to embrace God as the only way to salvation, adding: “If the likes of our royal father, who has seen everything in life, can embrace God, then who are we not to? When there is life there is hope and I know God will grant us our desires.” Warning Nigerians to watch their tongues in the New Year, he said: “A lot of politicians will die in 2014, but those who are of God need not fear.”
Osun State Deputy Governor Mrs. Titilayo Laoye-Tomori urged the congregation to serve God whole-heartedly.
She told the people that her boss, Governor Rauf Aregbesola, was a God-fearing man, who believed in religious freedom, adding: “He allows Christians, Muslims and Atheists to serve God the way they want.”
Also at the convention were retired Assistant Inspector-General of Police Junior Orubebe; former Director-General (DG), Standard Organisation of Nigeria (SON), Dr. John Aknaya; Osun State Commissioner for Environment Prof. Bukola Oyawoye; Akinyele Local Government Chairman Abiola Ambali; Assistant Comptroller-General of Customs Ade Fadaunsi and Prince Tokunbo Sijuade.
