The Governor said that the church has a duty to pray for the country and its leaders during these challenging times and to impact the gospel on the youths.

“The church must pray fervently for the nation,for the revival of its fortune, the church has a lot of roles to play in the country, we need to pray for the nation to get out of where we are today., pray for things that will impact on the nation and turn it around”, he said.

“ The church having helped to build the nation must impact the gospel on the youths, give them hope that tomorrow will be better than today and we will overcome the challenges”. He added.

He charged the church to always tell leaders the truth in all situations as that would help the growth of the nation, asserting that “ when politicians go wrong you must tell them the truth”.
