Inter-Faith Group Calls For National Prayers To Defeat Terrorism, Banditry

The National Inter-Faith Religious Organizations for Peace (NIFROP) on Tuesday called on Nigerians to intensify prayers for the troops to defeat terrorists, bandits and all other criminal elements and their sponsors in the country. 

The inter-faith group in a statement signed by its National Coordinator, Bishop Sunday Garuba, said Nigerians must unite in prayer at this critical period to finally put an end to “agents of darkness bent on the disintegration of Nigeria”.

According to Bishop Garuba, the recently launched Operation Sahel Sanity by the Nigerian Army is another testament of the current administration’s commitment to securing the lives and properties of citizens. 

While acknowledging the giant strides recorded by the military in recent times, NIFROP, however, admitted that the battle was far from over yet, calling on Nigerians to rally behind the troops as they edge towards victory. 

It added that the “time is now for Nigerians to come together in one loud voice in prayers and to fast for Gods intervention in the country and to put to shame all the plans of those that have sold their souls to the devil”.
