We are gathered here today as members of Leadwell Africa Global Initiative in collaboration with Nigerian Cleric Council of Bishops and Imans. Our gathering here are driven by the spirits of oneness and as concerned citizens of our dear nation, Nigeria to share the pain we suffered from the country that is being covered with the cloud of darkness and stained with the blood of some of her innocent citizens, whose souls are either restless in the sky or in the hands of kidnappers, bandits, armed robbers and terrorists, who have turned our day to perilous and fearful night, where evils prevail.
As concerned citizens of Nigeria, who are pained over the ugly situations in the country, we are to say that
1. We feel the pain and the lost of the departed souls of innocent Nigerians whose lives were cut short by the enemies of the country, called, bandits, armed robbers, kidnappers and terorists
2. We feel the pain of the rising cases of insecurities across the country
3. We feel the pain of the rising cost of living in Nigeria and hardship in the land
4. We feel the pain of Nigerians, who felt disappointed at the their fellow Nigerians, who took the advantage of the weakness of Naira against dollars to inflate and maniplate prices of goods and services in the country
5. We feel the pain of the rising cases of corruptions, ranges from embezlement of public funds nepotism, favoritism, tribalisms, amongst others that have taken the order of the day both at the public and private institutions
6. We feel the pain of the common Nigerians, who have lost hopes and confidents on the judiciary system of the country
7. We feel the pain of Nigerians who have lost trust on their representatives at both the lower and upper chamber of the national assembly
8. We feel the pain of Nigerians who have lost confidents and trust for the electoral system in Nigeria
9. We feel the pain of innocent Nigerians, whose souls are being kept at Nigerian Correctional center without being tried at competent jurisdiction for the alleged crimes
10. We the feel the pain of Nigerians who are calling for immediate release of Abba Kyari and His Team, whom they believed wil liberate them from the fear of insecurities in the country
It is upon these pains in the hearts of Nigerians that have prompted our gathering here today as concerned citizens of Nigeria to pray to God Almighty to intervene in the ugly situations which we have found ourselves as a nation.
It is upon these pains that we are here to pray to President Ahmed Bola Tinubu, members of the national assembly, the judiciary and all the security agencies to wake up to their mandates and rescue Nigerians from the pains in their hearts.
Most urgently, is the pain arising from the insecurities in the country, Which is very alarming, and this is where as concerned citizens of our dear nation, we pray to God Almighty and to the leadership of Nigeria to bring Aba Kyari and His Team back to Nigerian Security Architecture.
We know how the doggedness of Abba Kyari and his Team brought down high-profile criminals, Terrorist, Assassins and kidnsppers when there were with us in the society.
We share with the feeling of Majority of Nigerians that the presence of Abba Kyari and his team in our society can largely take away the pain of fear of unknown gun men from our hearts.
We pray for the presence of tested and trusted hands of Abba Kyari and His Team in Nigeria Security Architecture.
We pray for good governance and good leadership in Nigeria
Thank you
God bless you all,
Bishop Lawrence Ngene, President, Nigerian Clerics Council of Bishops and Imans
