He said: “We have seen instances in the past were leaders visited churches during their thanksgiving services, and even when leaders appreciate God for victory in their elections.
“Critics of His Excellency Peter Obi in Churches at the leading of the Holy Spirit in line with the Word of God in Proverbs 3:6c that says He God shall direct all our ways and Acts 17:26c that states that “he determine our places of habitation must stop this.”
He continued: “Please critics of the visit of His Excellency, Peter Obi to Churches should ask their principal not to visit churches when they are invited and they should not go to any church or mosque to worship God again because they are running for an elective position. Our respected leaders should be mindful of their utterances concerning their fellow contestants.*
