Pastor Nwachukwu prays for Nigeria amidst hardship
The Pastor had earlier, during his sermon, lamented the level of hardship in Nigeria, saying that it is time Nigerians began helping one another.
He said:
"There are persons, who are presently experiencing the temptation of going into sinful acts because of the level of hardship in the country.
"I wish I had a bagful of money to give out. I decided to give to everyone because I knew that some people might not have food in their houses, but because of shame, they refused to come out.
"That was why after giving to the first people that indicated that they didn't have food, I decided to give to everybody in the church. We are hoping that God will deliver this country, turn around the fortunes of the country, and also heal its people."
