2023: Nigerians Need Prayers More Than I Do — Tinubu To Lagos Lawmakers In Saudi Arabia

The National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and presidential hopeful, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has urged Lagos lawmakers to pray for the peace and development of the country.

Tinubu, who is in Mecca, Saudi Arabia for lesser hajj, said this in a statement on Thursday while reacting to a special prayer organised for him ahead of the 2023 election by the state assembly.

The former governor also urged the lawmakers to pray for President Muhammadu Buhari and his administration in their efforts to tackle the various challenges in the country.

According to the APC national leader, the lawmakers should go beyond praying for his presidential ambition and pray for the country and its citizens.

He also called on members of the Lagos State House of Assembly to pray that God should touch the hearts of terrorists and other criminal elements kidnapping and killing innocent citizens.
