The Confederation of All Progressives Congress (APC) Support Groups has expressed confidence that Nigeria will overcome its challenges through prayer.
Speaking on Thursday night at the annual Iftar program organized for members, friends, and associates in Abuja, the group’s Director-General, Kailani Muhammad, emphasized the power of prayer in addressing the nation’s difficulties.
Mr. Muhammad stated that with consistent prayers, Nigeria would triumph over issues such as kidnapping, banditry, corruption, and other obstacles hindering its growth and development.
“The only few problems that we have as a country can be overcome with prayers—the issues of armed banditry, corruption and inciting narratives,” he said.
He called on Christians and Muslims to use the Lent and Ramadan fasting periods to pray for peace and unity in Nigeria.

Mr. Muhammad explained that the annual Iftar program was organized for all Nigerians, regardless of religion or tribe, to promote unity and brotherhood.
“You can see both Muslims and Christians are here; that is the spirit of unity and brotherhood. We pray to Allah to give us peace and unity in Nigeria, and we also hope that the way things are going, Allah will guide us to the right path,” he said.
According to him, Ramadan and Lent coming at the same time signifies true nationalism and patriotism.
“For example, when a Catholic is entrusted with a position, he knows that one day he is going to be answerable to his Creator, the same thing with the Muslims, we believe in hereafter, after death.
“So, when somebody is given a position, he should be able to think that one day, he will be no more. So, he should do it to the best of his knowledge with trust, fear of God and sincerity,” Mr Muhammad said.
