“I am here on a familiarisation visit, and I urge you and other religious leaders to continue to support and pray for us, the politicians and other leaders, for God’s guidance to enable us to succeed,” he said.
He urged the people of the state and Nigerians to live in peace and imbibe the spirit of tolerance, irrespective of their affiliations.
