However if you are pregnant, sick or you have any ailment, it is advisable for you not to fast but be prayerful at this period”.

The Cleric explained that it is in God that true life and living exists, It is in Him that we find true peace and love. As followers of Christ, we must make this lenten season in unison we must be closer to our God who is kind and merciful, who seeks out and wand every lost sheep to make it home safely.

“Let us make the Holy Bible our friend this lenten period, read your bible day and night, especially all the books from Acts of Apostle to Revelation they are very good scriptures and very inspiring words.

“Let us pray at all times, the more you pray, the more you are closer to God, give to the needy at this period, share what you have with others, be ready to give gifts” Baba Aladura added.

He prayed that we shall go through this period with happiness and joy, and shall not lose anyone in this period in Jesus Christ Name.

Speaking on the general elections, Prophet Abidoye said “as we go into the General Elections, let us tell God that we need His presence in our country we want Him to empower us in Nigeria.

There shall be peace during the elections as we go to vote in the next few days, I urge you all to pray for wisdom for voters, for a safe and fair exercise. Ask the Lord to remove those who might unjustly and illegally change the outcome of the elections. The will of God should prevail”.

He urged Nigerians especially the youths not to engage in thuggery or any form of violence or unnecessary argument during the period of exercising their franchise.

“The Spiritual Father noted “Go to the polling booth do what you must do as a citizen, God will give us the men and women after his heart in Jesus Christ Name”.
