Pray For Better Leaders, Secondus Tells Nigerians

The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Uche Secondus, has urged Nigerians to use the occasion of the 2018 Christmas celebration to offer special prayers for good leaders with love of the people to emerge in the 2019 general elections.
Secondus, in a Christmas message issued by his Media Adviser, Ike Abonyi, on Monday in Abuja, also urged Nigerians to use the season to pray for peaceful elections.
Nigerians, he said, should use the period to seek God ‘s mercy, so He can provide leaders that would bring comfort and peace in the country.
“We need political leaders that can bring smiles on the faces of the people and such leaders can only come from God through our sincere supplications,” he said.
Secondus said the 2019 general elections provide the people the ample opportunity to rescue the country and its democracy, and the desire could only be met by God, whom citizens must use the Yuletide to cry to, for His grace.
He said that as Christmas marked the birthday anniversary of the Lord and Savour, Jesus Christ, there was no better time to seek God’s intervention to send a leader who would save Nigeria than this period.
“Yuletide time like this is therefore very auspicious for Nigerians to bury their political, ethnic and religious differences and go on their knees to seek God’s face in the country’s challenges,” Secondus said.
He said that there was the need for all to pray for peaceful elections to usher in joy in the land.
Secondus urged Christians to use the reason for the season to show love to one another and build on those things that unite, rather than what divides the country.
The National Chairman, on behalf of the leadership and members of the party, wished all Nigerians joyful and trouble-free Christmas celebrations.
