Ex-Head of State and National Convener, Nigeria Prays, Gen. Yakubu Gowon, has prayed that Nigerians will never raise their hands in
violence against one another again, urging that everyone should eschew all acts that threaten the unity of the country.
General Gowon gave the call on Sunday in Sokoto at a one-day National Prayer Rally organised by Nigeria Prays.
He also urged Nigerians to pray for the quick recovery of President Muhammadu Buhari and for divine enlightenment for the Acting President Professor Yemi Osinbajo and other national leaders to lead the country in the right path.
“We should value the lives of our fellow human beings that God has created for a purpose. May we never take lives with impunity.
“We are offering fervent prayers that Nigerians will never raise their hands against one another.
“They should love one another irrespective of religious, ideological, political and ethnic affinities,” he said.
“Prayer can solve problems better and faster than soldiers, as well as physical weapons of war.
“I have no doubt in my heart that God will honour our collective prayer and intercession for our dear nation, as well as heal our nation of insecurity.
“May we experience abundance of God’s mercy and showers of blessings over our lives and our nation as we raise our voices in heartfelt prayers today in Sokoto,‘’ he said.
