2019 election: reason Nigerians must pray more than waste energy on politics – Fani-Kayode

A former Aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, on Monday appealed to Nigerians to be more prayerful ahead of the 2019 elections.

He urged Nigerians not to dissipate much energy on politics but spend more time on their knees praying because the coming year may be “frightful and heart-breaking”.

Fani-Kayode also bemoaned the alleged inaction of the Federal Government over the killings of soldiers and policemen.

In a tweet, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain wondered who bewitched Nigeria in view of the attention they are according politics.

He wrote: “If only people knew what may happen in the next few weeks and months they would not spend too much energy on elections but would instead get on their knees and pray for Nigeria.

“I have been to the top of the mountain and sadly what I saw was savage, frightful and heart-breaking.

“115 soldiers slaughtered in Borno by Boko Haram last week yet no outrage from the people and Buhari could not care less.50 policemen slaughtered in Zamfara by Malian terrorists a few days ago yet no outrage from the people and Buhari could not care less. Who bewitched Nigeria?”
