Story by Zara Ahmed
Yobe State governor, Mai Mala Buni, has called on Nigerians to pray for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, other leaders, and security operatives for divine guidance and improved security across the country.
Governor Buni made the appeal in a statement by his media aide, Mamman Mohammed, on Friday when the leadership of the Sheikh Usman Dahiru Bauchi Foundation paid him a courtesy visit at the Government House.
In the statement, Buni explained that prayers bring divine guidance for leaders to deliver good governance and improve the lives of the people, while negative prayers against leaders result in poor leadership and weak service delivery.
