About 6,000 Pastors drawn from diverse denominations in South West Nigeria have endorsed Muhammadu Buhari, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
According to DAILY POST, the Pastors who call themselves ”Pastors for Change” on Thursday said that they will be embarking on a 7-day prayer and fasting on 7 mountains in South West Nigeria.
Speaking on behalf of the Pastors, at a news conference in Ikeja, Lagos, Bishop Kayode Williams, National Coordinator, Christians for Good Governance, said: ”We want to observe seven days of special prayer on the seven mountains in the Southwest political zones comprising six states to pray for the victory of Buhari and Osinbajo in the 28 March presidential election.
”We are using this opportunity to call on all pastors who believe that the time has surely come for change in Nigeria to exhort, mobilise, instruct and direct all our members from our churches, numbering 186,000 churches in the Southwest zone to adhere to this divine instruction from God.
”We shall intensify our intercessory prayers to God so that there will be peace in the nation and that the election will be free, transparent and peaceful. We are asking our archbishops, evangelists, elders, deacons and deaconesses to join hands and make sure that the prayer programme is very successful.”
