Governance: Nigerians Called to Pray and Fear God

NIGERIANS have been called upon to go closer to God, pray to and fear
Him. The call was made by some of our prominent leaders, particularly,
to Muslims at the end of their Ramadan fast last week. It is
really great, heart-warming, and hope-inspiring that our leaders are
waking up to enthrone God in the affairs of our nation. Though we
appear very religious outwardly as a people, we have no consideration
and respect for the Almighty God. Atrocities are rife in our nation.
