Founder of the Christ Apostolic Church, Mountain of Peace and Mercy (Ori-Oke Aanu),  Osogbo, Prophet (Dr) George Oluwoye has admonished Nigerians to move closer to God, saying they should continue to praise and worship God despite the current hardship.

Oluwoye, who said the only way to tackle the present worsening security and economic situation in Nigeria is for Nigerians to commit the affairs of the country into the hand of God.

The cleric, gave the admonition while addressing the congregation during the 20th year anniversary of the church in Osogbo.

He stated that apart from prayers, praises is another effective way of communicating with God and getting His attention to rescue Nigerians from whatever situation they found themselves.

Oluwoye emphasized the need for all Nigeria leaders and followers to return to God to solve all challenges facing the nation, saying no human being can end Nigeria’s problems.

He said, ” If we continue to place human being in the position of God, we will fail. If we can all return to God, He is still merciful, He will embrace us as the Father.”

Speaking on some testimonies of the church since its creation, Oluwoye said the mission of the Church was to fulfill the greatest assignment of the lord  Jesus Christ.

Speaking at the event, a traditional ruler in Osun, Alara of Ara kingdom, Oba Olubayo Adesola Windapo who spoke on the rising cases of killing and kidnapping,  called on the Federal Government to channel security votes of states and local governments to local authorities in order to empower them.

Commenting on the gruesome killings of traditional rulers in Ekiti and Kwara by suspected Fulani herdsmen,  the monarch insisted that they (traditional rulers) understand the nooks and crannies of their domains than governors and local government chairmen, hence, they were in best position to provide security of life and property to the people.

According to the monarch “It is the local authorities, the Obas and chiefs that should be paid, we are the ones that can tell you how our terran is.”

In his own view, Oba Pastor Adekoyejo Adebusoye Oyebamiji the Oluwoye of Iwoye who said the country which is experiencing security threat is under serious crisis, called on all concerned leaders to be holistic in their approach.

He stressed that the security architecture put in place should be changed so as tackle the problem of insecurity bedeviling the country.
