He said: “Please tell Mr. President that things are not working, Nigerians’ joy has been turned to sorrow, there is too much suffering in the land and this may lead to anarchy. Go and tell all the politicians, all our leaders to serve Christ and to do God’s will. Nigeria has been blessed with heavenly blessings. We are better than United States of America because God has blessed us with many things.

“We are better than United Kingdom, Japan, Paris, China, if we can harness what we have, Nigeria will be great.
