A call has gone out to the Igbo people by
a Christian based group, the Apostolic of Prophetic Elders (ACPE)
saying they need to pray fervently so that God could deliver the race
from the spirit of marginalization and dehumanization in the country.
The group said this after an eight-day international prayer
conference in Akwa, saying what is happening in the country is abnormal
and needs an abnormal prayer.
In a communique released at the end of the conference and signed by Very Rev E.S. I. Chukwu, George Enekwechi, Uche Umerie and Rev Canon Chuma Ugochukwu read: “All government establishments must avoid eye-service, hypocrisy, nepotism, tribalism and all manner of evil disposition.
“To this end, the conference urges President Muhammadu Buhari, the governors and all those who are in authority to ensure that all Nigerians are treated equally even while not sparing those that looted the nation’s treasury irrespective of their party, tribe or religion.
“There is also the need for abnormal prayers in our present abnormal situations where insurgency of different descriptions, including kidnapping, political violence, armed robbery, rape, ritual murder and sacrifices, corruption in the public sector and same sex marriage, are prevailing.
“We pray that God will lead all those in authority so that they will lead the nation with the fear of God for the people to rejoice”
Meanwhile, another Igbo group has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to revert the lopsided appointment made so far in the interest of Nigeria unity.
