The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has asked Nigerians to continue to pray for the nation.
According to the soft-spoken cleric, prayer remains the best option for peace in Nigeria and ending the Boko Haram insurgency in the Northeast and other parts of the country.
Pastor Adeboye made this known when he paid a courtesy visit on the Borno Deputy Governor, Usman Kadafur, at the Government House, Maiduguri, on Thursday.
The clergyman said he arrived in the state on Wednesday and led worshippers “to seek the face of God over the state of security and other challenges facing the country.
“A combination of physical and spiritual battle had become necessary to end the menace.”
“There are problems that you cannot solve with just human ability, it takes God to get some of these bandits to surrender.
“Because even if you offer them everything, some of them may still turn their back and go back to what they were initially doing.
“We have come to pray on the land. My congregation and I have been praying. I believe God wants me to step on the land and cry and pray for the land and we have been praying since Wednesday.
“In our own little corner at the headquarters in Lagos, we have tried whatever little bit we could to show the government that we are particularly interested in Borno State,” Adeboye said.
