PRESIDENT
Jonathan yesterday urged Nigerians to continue to pray for the country, saying
it is the best way to attract God’s favour and blessing to the nation.
In a brief remark at the wedding of Senate President David Mark’s daughter,
Ada, Jonathan noted that without prayers, surviving in the world would be very
difficult.
He called on the new couple, Mr. and Mrs. Inalegwu Egwa, to embrace the virtues
of tolerance and perseverance. He advised them to sustain their relationship
and build their union on solid foundation.
Mark expressed appreciation to God for the grace to give away his daughter in
holy matrimony. Appreciating Jonathan’s presence at the wedding, which took
place at Regina Pacis Catholic Parish, Garki, Mark noted that the “ups and
downs” of every nation bring to mind the capability of the leadership in that
country.
He urged Nigerians to rise to the occasion by participating in leadership
roles, which he said begin from the family.
Dignitaries at the wedding ceremony included Deputy Senate President, Ike
Ekweremadu; PDP Board of Trustee Chairman, chief Tony Anenih; Governor of Kogi
State, Captain Wada; Anambra State - Peter Obi; Cross Rivers - Liyel Imoke,
among others.
