Ahead of the Nasarawa State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal judgement in the state, over 1,000 women from various religious assemblies across the 13 Local Government Areas of the state, yesterday held a prayer rally for peace and God-fearing judgement in the state.
The women said they were gathered to cry to God in prayer for divine intervention for justice to be done so that peace can reign in the state. They also prayed for justice for the governorship candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, Dr. David Ombugadu whom they alleged, was voted massively in the March 18 election in the state
The women dressed in black attires rendered emotional songs in Hausa, carrying placards with several inscriptions during the rally, have held series of prayers asking God to intervene and deliver the state from hostages and injustices.
Speaking shortly after the prayer session in Lafia, the leaders of Nasarawa Women Coalition for Justice, Hanatu John, explained that the reasons for the rally was to seek the face God in the case involving Dr. Ombugadu of PDP and Governor Sule of APC.
Hanatu who expressed confidence that God will not fail the aged women in their prayers under the scorching sun, will give wisdom and courage to the judges presiding over the Nasarawa governorship tribunal to deliver judgement with the fear of God.
It would be recalled that Dr. Ombugadu had dragged Governor Abdullahi Sule to court after the declaration of Abdullahi Sule as the winner of the March 18, 2023 governorship election in the state.
