“During the period of fasting, which commences from dawn till 12.00 noon and beyond, members are to pray for peace in our country Nigeria and in Edo State in particular.”
According to Osagiede, “We are also to pray that all those who are trying to make Edo State ungovernable for our Governor, Godwin Obaseki, should have a change of heart, as there can be no meaningful development in a state where there is anarchy.”
“Furthermore, we should thank the lord God for giving us a corrupt free, articulate and mass – oriented Governor whose developmental strides are visible to all and sundry, even the trouble makers.”
“Let us therefore commit him and his deputy to the hands of the Most High God for protection and divine wisdom to fulfil the mandate freely given to them by Edo people”, it added.
