President Goodluck Jonathan, Friday night made a surprise visit to the monthly prayer meeting of the Redeemed Christian Church of God at the Redemption camp, Ogun State.

President Jonathan, who received a warm welcome by the worshippers was invited to the podium around 9.30pm by one of the senior pastors in the church, Pastor Aboaba.

President Jonathan thanked the worshippers for their prayers and urged them to continue to pray for Nigeria and the peaceful conduct of the election.

“I am here to join you in prayers for our nation tonight. The whole world is passing through a challenge of religious extremism. Our country is facing a difficult moment but very soon, it will be over with the collaboration of our neighbours.

“I am not going to campaign even though the election is near because the General Overseer will not allow his altar to be used for political campaign but I want to tell you to shun violence and pray for peace in all the elections”, he admonished them.

Following his brief speech for which he received cheers from the worshippers, Pastor Adeboye prayed for peaceful conduct of the election and strength for President Jonathan who knelt down before the whole church.

Pastor Adeboye also prayed for the Vice Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Professor Yemi Osinbajo a senior pastor in the Redeemed Church.(Daily Post)
