The wife of the Governor of Anambra State and founder of the charity organization, Caring Family Enhancement Initiative (CAFE), Dr Mrs Ebelechukwu Obiano (Osodieme) has called on Anambra women to immediately embark on prayers and fasting for peace in our land from 6am to 6pm for a period of one month.
Mrs Obiano made the call in Awka recently against the backdrop of the violence and wanton destruction across the country and Anambra State which has led to unnecessary loss of lives and properties.
Explaining the urgent need for prayers, Mrs Obiano stated that As mothers, we cannot continue to watch as our children leave our homes in order to express peaceful democratic rights or to work are either molested or do not come back at all or in good piece. As praying mothers we are called on to seek the face of God in times like this. Pointing out that Those who cannot sustain the prayer and fasting from 6am till 6pm can stop at 3pm daily.
Concluding, the 1st Lady noted that Anambrarians are a peaceful and hardworking people as well as our brothers and sisters keepers. There is no better time to seek the intervention of God Almighty in our lives than now as Anambra mothers are the ones to lead the call for prayers as ndi Nne as she is hopeful that by praying together with good intention, God will grant the wishes of each and every one of our families and restore peace in our land Mrs Obiano reiterated.
