Dialogue with genuine agitators, Pentecostal Bishop tells Federal Government

The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria has urged the Federal Government to stop bullying justified agitators.

Apparently referring to the cases of
Sunday Adeyemo, alias Sunday Igboho of the Yoruba Nation and Nnamdi Kanu of the Indigenous People of Biafra who are currently under incarceration, PFN
advised the President, Major General Muhammedu Buhari(retd) to "humbly listen and dialogue with such agitators where necessary"

The President of PFN in Anambra State, Bishop Moses Ezedebego stated this on Tuesday at press conference in Awka, the state capital.

He said settlement of issues arising from different parts of the country would ensure peaceful coexistence

The bishop said,“The Federal Government should address purposefully the issues of agitations and insecurity in the country. The government should not bully and suppress justified agitations but to dialogue where it is necessary.

" We believe that the greatest challenge we have in the country is the monumental corruption in the system which the government has failed woefully to address properly”.

On the Anambra governorship poll, the PFN warned the governorship candidates in the race that any attempt by any of them to rig the election would result to generational curse on them, advising them to ensure free and credible poll.

Ezedebego said although PFN had not endorsed any candidate for the election, the Pentecostals all over the state had been put on notice to vote for the best candidate.

He said,“We are calling on all the voters to guard their votes after voting and resist any form of rigging in the coming election. Any money gotten to rig election is blood money and will bring generational curses to the people involved.

“Let the candidates engage in issue -based campaigns since election is not a do or die affair. We also ask our youths not to allow any candidate to use them during the campaign and elections day proper to ferment trouble.

“We have mobilized our teeming members in the state to arm themselves with voters’ card to vote the candidate of their choice on Nov. 6. We have also emphasized that Anambra State needs a God-fearing man, a good manager of resources, a man of impeccable character and humanity.

“We need a governor for everybody; someone that will carry everybody along and we are praying for the right candidate to take over Anambra state on Nov. 6, 2021.”

The PFN leader urged the Independent national Electoral Commission to be an impartial empire by giving all the candidates equal and level- playing ground during the exercise.

He said the PFN had set up a good governance committee headed by Dr. Amaechi Nwachukwu to help galvanize and ensure good representation of the people in governance, describing PFN as an organized body of different mega churches with one central leadership in the state that encourages good governance, religious tolerance and the unity of the body of Christ

He said PFN would organize prayer rally in Anambra State next month to showcase and strengthen the unity of the body of Christ, pray for the nation and the coming election in the state.

According to him, the national president of PFN, Bishop Francis Waleoke would attend the prayer session with top leaders of PFN to pray specially for the success of the Anambra election, adding that all Pentecostals from the 179 communities in the state would participate at the session.

Capital NO !

Buhari will rather host the so called repentant terrorists to the royal banquet and presidential hand shake for the job well done than to free any genuine agitators !!!

Just like telling Talibans in Afghanistan to listen to genuine agitators. The earlier we realize that terrorists have snatched power in Nigeria the better.

The Jihadists dont dialogue, its either you say their satanic Shahada or you have your head your hands on opposite sides chopped off.

This was practiced by the prophet himself.
