Senator Okowa who gave the charge Saturday
(11-02-17) during the Asaba Manna Mountain Prayer Conference at the Cenotaph
said every Nigerian have a role to play in removing Nigeria from the
present economic recession and should contribute their quota through prayer and
righteous living.
According to him " Every one of
us have a role to play individually and collectively to make our nation better.
We need to return to God, seek his face so that he will heal our land, this can
be achieved if each and every one of us play our role through prayer and
fasting, then God will hear our prayers and heal our land as stated in his
words."
He said there is no individual too
small to positively impact on the challenges faced by Nigeria currently "
so we need to play our role as Christians by always praying for our leaders and
country for a better Nigeria rather than always complaining about the bad
situation and our leaders."
The Governor commended the Publisher
of Our Daily Manna, Bishop Chris Kwakpovwe for his contributions in spreading
the Word of God round the world and introducing Christians to ways of righteous
living stressing that " God will bless this effort you are making through
your programmes to heal the land"
In a brief response, Bishop Kwakpovwe
thanked the Governor Okowa for finding time to attend the two days programme in
Asaba and prayed that God will take the centre pace in his administration.
He called on Deltans and Nigerians to
stop complaining about the government of the day but to always pray for those
in authority for God to continually direct them and give them the
necessary wisdom they need to pilot the affairs of the state/country for the
benefit of all.
