The General Overseer of Prayer Centre Church of God, Akure, Samson Oluwamodede, has declared that governments at all levels in Nigeria have failed in their responsibility of protecting the citizens.
The cleric called on the people of the country to pray and seek divine intervention, which he said remained the nation’s last hope.
He stated this during a ‘Prayer Walk Against Insecurity’ organised by the church in Akure, the Ondo State capital, on Sunday, where the pastor and members of the church staged a walk on major streets of the state capital.
The event, which lasted more than three hours, saw hundreds of church members march through major roads in Akure, carrying placards bearing inscriptions such as: ‘Stop Terrorism, Save Our Children,’ ‘Let There Be Peace in Nigeria,’ ‘Lord Restore Our Economy,’ ‘End Banditry in Nigeria,’ ‘Save Nigeria,’ among others.
