Tinubu’s wife, Ribadu to lead national prayers amid hardship
First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu and National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu will lead a national prayer session to address the numerous challenges facing Nigeria.
The event, organized in collaboration with both Christian and Muslim leaders, seeks divine intervention in the country’s ongoing crises.
Chief Segun Balogun Afolorunikan, Director General of the National Prayer Forum (NPF), announced the initiative during a briefing in Abuja, titled “Seeking Divine Intervention in Nigeria’s Affairs.”
He emphasized the importance of collective action in addressing the country’s multifaceted challenges, noting that unity is essential for achieving lasting solutions.
“By the end of this prayer session, we believe that with God’s wisdom, our leaders and citizens will find the strength to confront our common enemies,” Afolorunikan stated, expressing hope that Nigeria would enter 2025 with renewed purpose and stability.
The prayer sessions will be held at significant venues: Muslims will gather at the National Mosque in Abuja for seven days, during which 313 individuals will recite the Qur’an, culminating in the recitation of the Holy text 2,191 times for national stability.
Meanwhile, Christians will convene at the National Ecumenical Centre for a week of intense prayer, with prayer warriors from various denominations focusing on the nation’s challenges.
Afolorunikan noted that extensive outreach efforts had been made, including meetings with leaders from the National Mosque, the President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), and traditional leaders such as the Sultan of Sokoto.
