Osun-based Cleric suggests ways to tackle current economic hardship in Nigeria
…..encourages Nigerians to spread love to each other
By Richard Akintade, Osogbo
Founder of the Christ Apostolic Church, Mountain of Mercy and Praise, Ori Oke Anu, Kajola-Owode Ede, Osun State, Pastor Daniel Agbolade, has urged Nigerians to engage in fervent prayers by seeking divine mercy to tackle the current economic and security hardships, saying prayer is the only solution.
Pastor Agbolade maintained that Nigeria needs serious prayer for its current leaders to succeed in office.
The cleric made this appeal at the maiden edition of interdenominational prayer for the year 2024, organised by Kajola Community Landlords’ Association (KCLA), Kajola.
Agbolade, who is the chairman of the Kajola Community Landlords’ Association (KCLA), said, “Nigeria is our country; let’s pray for her prosperity.
He, however, appealed to political leaders to ensure that they have the spirit of God in them, saying, “When someone has the spirit of God in him, he will lead with fear of God.
“And out of that fear of God, it implies that people under them will not suffer.”
He further charged landlords and residents of the Kajola community to spread love among themselves, stressing that where there is love, development will come in.
The ‘Baale of Kajola’, Alhaji Yinusa Kabiru Alade, while speaking on the challenges confronted by his subject, called on network service providers to come to their aid by providing solutions to epileptic network services in order to ensure that residents of his community have access to network services of their choice.
He lauded Governor Adeleke Adeleke’s developmental stride across the state since he assumed office, just as he urged him to consider linking Owode-Ede Road to Atakumosa West for Kajola’s continuous development.
In their separate sermons, Pastor Olukunle Opeyemi and Sheikh Adewuyi Fatai urged members of the Kajola community to live in harmony and be their brothers keepers, encouraging them not to allow the current economic hardship to disunite them.
Elder Olaniyan David Adeyemi, Chairman of the Sumbare Landlord Association, called on the Osun state government to provide more security for them to protect their lives and property.
He also commended the KCLA leadership for ensuring that the spirit of love remained with them, which made them organise the prayer for the prosperity and protection of its members possible, and urged other community leaders to emulate them.
Meanwhile, residents of the community also benefited from the free medical outreach organised by the leadership of the Kajola Community Landlords’. Association (KCLA).
