Chukwuebuka Anozie ObiThe Spiritual Director of Zion Prayer Movement Outreach, Chukwuebuka Anozie Obi, has urged Nigerians to seek a profound national transformation through a return to spiritual values.
Obi, who was represented by Evangelical Minister Patrick Ihionu, gave the admonition on Saturday at Zion Ground, Okota, Lagos.
He emphasized that unity and economic development are attainable by aligning with divine principles.
Obi stated that Nigeria is poised for radical change if its people reconnect with God.
“We must return to God so He can heal our land. This is a call for unity and a change in our approach to national and economic challenges,” he said.
Obi noted that economic crises cannot be solved by mere government actions alone but require personal commitment and communal support.
“We need to work hard in addition to our prayers. Blaming the government won’t suffice; we must assist one another and embody the values of good leadership,” he added.
As the 100 days fasting period of the ministry comes to an end, Obi called for increased acts of charity, care for the poor, and personal repentance, noting that the fast was an opportunity for introspection, a time to rectify past sins, and a period to foster compassion and support for the less fortunate.
