Hundreds of worshippers gathered in Agege, Lagos, over the weekend for the 38th Annual Convention of the Abundant Life Gospel Church Men’s Fellowship, where Christian leaders called on Nigerians to intensify prayers for the nation’s leaders and work towards national development.

The three-day convention, themed “Unbeatable,” was held at the church’s headquarters on Iju Road and featured seminars, prayer sessions, a men’s forum and free health screenings aimed at equipping men to navigate economic and social challenges.

Speaking at the event, the National President of the fellowship, Deacon Bola Showumi, urged Christians to obey the biblical injunction to pray for those in authority.

He said leaders require the support and prayers of citizens to succeed in addressing the country’s challenges.
