We Need Honesty and Prayer for a Better Nation – Alh. Ijaodola, Olori Aribike Urge Nigerians
Ekohotblog reports that at the special prayer session held to celebrate the birthday of the Olu Epe of Epe Kingdom, His Royal Majesty Oba Shefiu Ọlatunji Adewale, Alhaji Ijaodola (also known as ‘More Blessing’) and Olori Aribike Adewale shared their thoughts on the importance of honesty and prayer in Nigeria in an interview session with Eko Hot Blog.
Alhaji Ijaodola emphasized that leaders should always put the well-being of their people first.
He mentioned that while the President is trying to bring about positive change, it is the people working under him who need to act with integrity for things to improve.
“We need to pray for those in power to do the right thing,”
“The President can not do so much; it’s the people working with him that need to be sincere and dedicated. If they misuse their positions, then nothing will change. So, let’s focus our prayers on them.” He said.
He urged Nigerians to support leaders who genuinely care about their communities and to always remember them in prayers.
Olori Aribike Adewale, during an interview with Eko Hot Blog, used a simple story to illustrate how dishonesty can cause confusion and misunderstanding.
“Imagine a photographer charges ₦200 for a group photo,” she began. “But someone tells the next person it’s ₦400, and by the time it gets to the last person, the price is ₦1,200.
The father of one of the people in the group ends up blaming the photographer, not knowing that the problem was caused by misinformation.”
She explained that, sometimes, leaders are not the real problem. Instead, it’s the people carrying out their plans who create issues due to dishonesty.
“We should be honest and truthful in everything we do,” she said. “If we can live good lives and stay prayerful, things will become better for everyone.”
Olori Aribike concluded by advising Nigerians to turn to God and remain hopeful for a better future.
“When we do what’s right and ask God for help, everything will fall into place,” she concluded.
The special prayer session, which was attended by family members and religious leaders, had prayers rendered for Oba Shefiu Ọlatunji Adewale’s continued reign, good health, and peace in Epe and Nigeria.
Attendees expressed their appreciation for the insightful words shared by Alhaji Ijaodola and Olori Aribike Adewale and agreed that embracing honesty and prayer is the way forward for the country.
