Wailing Corruption Petition, Wike Hunts for Prayers

By BENEDICTA BASSEY/NEWSTRACK

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has portrayed himself in recent times as a governor that believes so much in prayers as he identifies with church denominations for worship.

Before the heat of the general election in March and April 2015, the governor's level of appearances in churches was not as high as it is now.

Within the past one month, he has been to many churches seeking and getting prayers for himself and the success of his administration.

Just last week, Wike was at the Royal House of Grace International Church where another guest of the church and a renowned cleric, Dr. Uma Ukpai, prayed for him and described him as an asset to the state.

The 'praying governor' has also received clerics from the Methodist Church and Archibishop Ignatius Kattey of the Anglican Church at the Government House in Port Harcourt and none of them left without praying for him and the success of his administration.

With such overwhelming intercession, his case before the election petition tribunal might work in his favour.
