The Rivers State Government has declared a
three-day fasting to seek God’s intervention
for peace and order in the state, ahead of the
Dec. 10 rerun elections
Mr Austin Tam-George, the state Commission
for Information, stated this in a statement he
issued on Monday in Port Harcourt.
According to the commissioner, the fasting
will span between Wednesday, Dec. 7 and
Friday, Dec. 9.
He said that Governor Nyesom Wike pleaded
with residents and churches in the state to
actively participate in the spiritual exercise.
“The fasting will involve churches and
residents of the state; the essence is to seek
God’s divine intervention in the election.
“We know that when we seek the face of God,
He will cause our state to have a peaceful
rerun election and no principality or power can
stand Him.’’
He enjoined Rivers people to engage in acts
capable of promoting peace during the
election.
The Independent Electoral Commission fixed
December 10 for rerun elections into national
and state assembly positions in the state.
