He said: “The prayer point of the APC members should be that God Almighty should finish His work which He had started on the presidential candidate of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and all the party’s national and state assemblies’ candidates.”
The chairman also encouraged the party members to pray for crisis-free elections and subsequent victory of all the party’s candidates in the election.
