Oliver Aba, the Prelate of the Methodist Church of Nigeria, has called on Nigerians to vote only credible persons, who will address the worsening insecurity and economic hardship in the country.
The Prelate who lamented the horrible situations in the country, insisted that only when credible leaders are elected during the February and March elections, the current Nigeria’s situation will not change.
Aba made the remark at a session with journalists shortly after he inaugurated the Diocese of the Methodist Church of Nigeria in Lafia, the Nasarawa state capital, Saturday.
He stressed that, the country needed credible leaders that would change what he described as the bad situation for the better.
He further lamented that, Nigerians had not had it so bad in the past like what was happening currently in terms of worsening insecurity and economic hardship under the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), calling for change in government at all levels.

He noted that, it was high time for Nigerians to come together and vote only credible leaders that would unite the people and enthrone peace in the forthcoming general election.
“Nigeria is the only country we have. So, I call on Nigerians to vote only credible leaders who will take us to the next level of a better Nigeria.
“As we go to the poll in this year’s general election, let everybody have the fear of God and vote credible leaders that will take Nigeria to a better country.
“It has never been so bad like this in terms of insecurity, in terms of brotherly love when suddenly the devil entered and changed our minds to be enemies of ourselves.
“It is not supposed to be so. We must come together as a people and say to ourselves ‘enough is enough,” the prelate said.
He, however, concluded by calling on Nigerians to continue to pray for a peaceful election as they go to the polls by February this year.
