Muslim and Christian leaders, operating under the auspices of Inter-Faith Prayer Forum, are to hold a joint prayer for President Goodluck Jonathan and Vice President Namadi Sambo in Abuja on March 20.
This was disclosed by leaders of the prayer forum, led by Archbishop Leonard Kawas and Sheik Dan Zanga, when they paid a courtesy call on the Director-General of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation, Senator Ahmadu Ali in Abuja on Thursday.
Spokesman for the Forum, Kawas, said they were in support of the administration of Jonathan and applauded the PDP-led administration for doing “great works.”
He said no one could ascend the Presidency if he did not have the blessing of God, explaining that this had informed the decision of the religious leaders to pray ceaselessly for the present administration.
“Koran and the Bible agree on the fact that only God Almighty gives power,” he said.
He allayed the fears that the forthcoming elections would be violent, declaring that “those in support of mischief will be exposed by God.”
Ali, who was represented by his deputy, Prof. Tunde Adeniran, expressed the appreciation of the PDP presidential campaign organisation for the prayers and support of the religious leaders since the beginning of the electioneering.
