Explaining the significance of the RCCG Youth global prayer walk, the Pastor in charge of RCCG Throne Room Parish, Transcorp Hilton, Abuja, Tunde Benjamins-Olaniyi, who led the walk, said it is invaluable because it carries the value of eternal dimension.
Benjamins-Olaniyi said without peace, prosperity will be nothing because peace is the seal and bedrock of prosperity in any society.
According to him, “Nigeria is a great and beautiful country, so let’s stop all the rancour; let’s stop all the armed conflicts and terror, and let’s stop all the thuggery as election time is coming right now.
” Let everything be done in peace, because the prosperity of this nation is non-negotiable, and if we can’t do anything, at least we can pray, that is why we are standing and engaging for peace, praying that God please intervene.
“So, we are praying let there be peace in our streets, communities, and let thuggery, terror, horror, killings and fear be a thing of the past. And we know that God can do it in Nigeria”.
