Kumuyi described his visit to the north central state as one meant beyond religion and ethnicity, saying he was sure God loves the people of Kwara and had seen what they might be passing through.
He said he was ready to pray for God’s intervention in the affairs of the country. “Let there be enlightenment; let the media tell us this is where Nigeria ought to be. For instance, we all want an economically stable country.

“We should look at the manifesto of politicians and pick the ones that will deliver, that will help the people, we should not pick just because of religion or ethnicity.
“If we vote for the right people, this country will be great and our politicians must always remember that they are in office for the people”, Kumuyi added. (NAN)
