Insecurity: Okorocha’s wife leads women group in prayer

A group under the aegis of Women of Divine Destiny Initiative (WODDI) led by the wife of the former Governor of Imo State, Mrs. Nneoma Okorocha, has commenced a 40-day prayer session over insecurity in the country.

The former Imo first lady, who is also the founder of WODDI led hundreds of women from across the country and have converged on Abuja yesterday to pray for an end in the spate of kidnapping, banditry and terrorism across the country.

The theme of the 40-day prayer session attended by clerics from across the country is, “Heal our land and let there be peace”.

Okorocha particularly expressed the fear of the fate that would befall upcoming generations of Nigerians if the insecurity situation is not nipped in the bud.

She said: “Nigeria our country is a blessed land, from human to natural resources. It is not a mistake that we are called the giant of Africa. Unfortunately, the enemy has and is still trying so hard to destroy the glory of our land and bring about insecurity, killings, bitterness, underdevelopment and hate in our society. Looking at what is happening almost everywhere in this country.”

“I felt I should reach out to men and women of God for us to come together to cry to God.It is not about me, it is about this country. We have to come together and pray and forget our differences to seek the face of God to stop this ugly trend.”

Okorocha expressed confidence that God would heed to their prayers by bringing to an end the spate of insecurity in the country at the prayer sessions.
