A Pentecostal Bishop, Rt. Rev. Seun Adeoye has urged Nigerians to pray for the quick recovery of President Muhammadu Buhari, saying his wellbeing is so important to the nation’s co-existence and stability.
Bishop Adeoye warned that if anything should happen to President Buhari, such would be a difficult burden for the nation to bear as Nigeria will fall into wrong hands that are ready do anything to turn this country into their private estates.
The cleric, who spoke during the 1st Episcopal Honours and Gallantry Awards held at the weekend at Sufficient Grace and Truth Ministry (SGTM), Rehoboth Arena, Okinni, Osun State, noted that only God can sustain the president’s health.
He said, “I see trouble should anything go wrong with President Buhari. So, we need to pray for his quick recovery from this ailment. Buhari must not die; Buhari must live and that should be our prayers.
“If Buhari is not the president, we will be faced with more lies and propaganda where we are going to be made to call black white. Rule of law will turn to be rule of fear and democracy will be replaced by despotism, favoritism and god-fatherism.
“We cannot allow Nigeria to be in the hand of any of the present leaders. None of them can be the captain of this ship; they will run it aground with their arrogance and selfish agenda. They will rob, strip us naked and put us in perpetual bondage as slaves. So, I enjoin all of us to pray for the President Buhari to get well quickly,” he said.
On those who were honoured, Bishop Adeoye disclosed that they were shortlisted from over 100 nominees and were screened by the church’s Council of Clergy based on their courage, services to humanity and God and their various contributions to the society.
Those on the successful list were the Commissioner of Police, Kwara State, Mr. Olusola Amore and his counterpart from Osun, Mr. Fimihan Adeoye, Professor Ayo Fatubarin, Pastor and Professor (Mrs) Olusegun Akinwusi, Dr. Kayode Oduoye, Barrister Kanmi Ajibola, Mr. Femi Adefila, Dr. and (Mrs). Niyi Oginni and Deacon and Deaconess Moses Ajayi.
Speaking on behalf of the awardees, Akinwusi, a former Head of Service in Osun state urged Nigerians to pray fervently for the nation and not to keep mute or look the other way when things are going the wrong in the country.

Reverend, if God want Buhari dead today let His will be done. Nigeria has been here before Buhari and after Buhari there will be Nigeria if only God want it to be.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous May 1, 2017 at 5:20, how relevant is your comment to the words of man of God. I can see you can not even read and understand. the writer is not a Muslim but a good xtrain not people like you that preach hate. please read the write up again and maybe register in a bible study school
ReplyDeleteThe first comment never said anything about religion, it is your devilish mind that pricked you to think his comment is religion based
DeleteOk, let me also ask you Mr Condemning another individual....
How relevant is the word of that man of God to the will of God?
As the first comment rightly goes, Nigeria's health will never by the special Grace of God be dependent on the health of Buhari not to talk of any other soul as the case may be.
Didn't Abacha and Yar Adua died while they were presidents of this same country .....What happened?
God forbid the death of Buhari now, it is not something not to wish even an enemy not to talk of our dear President but understand this my friend ..Nigeria is completely indispensable of any individual no matter the circumstance
That MOG should know better the WILL of GOD is incomprehensible
No one gives life except God...weather Nigerians pray or not only God can save
