NBM, convention, Cherubim $ Seraphim harp on oneness
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Worldwide, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, has urged Nigerians not to relent in praying for the country.

During a ministration yesterday at Ebute-Metta, Lagos, he noted that anyone who had witnessed the consequences of war would not do anything to incite crisis in the land.

In a related development, the chairman of Kaduna Baptist Conference of the Nigerian Baptist Convention (NBC), Reverend Banjo Ajao, said the country’s future lies in the hands of the citizens.

Muslims, under the aegis of Nasirul-Lahil Fathi Society of Nigeria (NASFAT) called for calm and tolerance among Nigerians.

Also, the Neo Black Movement of Africa (NBM) admonished Nigerians to avoid any conduct that would hinder peace and unity.

In a goodwill message yesterday, the organisation said no meaningful development and progress could be achieved in the absence of unity and peace.

Admitting that the nation faces challenges, NBM, however, noted that there was need to celebrate, stressing that the country’s unity remains a priority for all.

The General Overseer of Treasure Word Evangelical Ministry, Port Harcourt, Apostle Raph Williams, also made case for peaceful coexistence.

To the Prelate and Baba Aladura of the Eternal Sacred Order of the Cherubim and Seraphim (ESOCS), Dr. Elder David L. Bob-Manuel, Nigerians must embrace peace to record any meaningful progress.
