President of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), Bishop Francis Wale Oke, on Monday, advised that a Southern Christian should be elected as President of Nigeria to ensure unity, stability and peaceful co-existence in the country.
In a statement he signed, Bishop Oke said, “if we are interested in the stability of this country, the South should produce the next president, and by the South, I am talking of the South-East, South-West, South-South.”
Bishop Oke, who is also the President of Sword of the Spirit Ministries and Chancellor of Precious Cornerstone University, Ibadan, Oyo State, further stated that the country needed a God-fearing and cerebral leader that could grasp the complexities of governance of Nigeria, with over 500 ethnic nationalities.
According to him, not only should the South produce the next president, the next president ought to be a Christian, not a Muslim.
He called on the electorate to vote according to their conscience, adding that nobody should allow their vote to be bought.
He also urged Nigerians to bury their ego and unbridled ambitions for the betterment of all.
