Regional
Mothers Hold Spiritual Deliverance Prayers for Niger Delta Governors in Lagos
* Over 2,000 Bibles Distributed at the Event

Lagos, Nigeria – Concerned mothers from the Niger Delta region have gathered in Lagos for a special spiritual deliverance prayer service, seeking divine intervention for the governors of the region. The event, tagged the “Niger Delta Governors Spiritual Deliverance Service Day,” is currently taking place at the Ijaw Monitoring Group (IMG) Office.
Organized by the National Coordinator of the Ijaw Monitoring Group, Comrade Joseph Evah, the prayer service aims to seek divine guidance and wisdom for the governors of the Niger Delta states, including Senator Duoye Diri (Bayelsa State), Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta State), Umo Eno (Akwa Ibom State), Lucky Aiyedatiwa (Ondo State), Bassey Otu (Cross River State), Sen. Monday Okpebholo (Edo State), and Siminalayi Fubara (Rivers State).
Speaking at the event, Evah emphasized the need for visionary leadership in the region, drawing inspiration from past governors who championed development. “We are inspired by the legacy of the region’s founding governors, such as HRM Alfred Diete-Spiff, Chief Udokobo Jacob Esuene, and Chief Samuel Osaigbovo Ogbemudia, who drove development and industrialization in the region in the nascent days of Nigeria,” he said.
IduwiniVoice staff correspondent Tama Perety reports that over 2,000 Bibles were distributed during the service. The prayers focused on asking for economic wisdom and a patriotic spirit among the current governors, as the region faces severe challenges, including economic hardship, insecurity, and environmental degradation.
Evah and the participating mothers expressed their hope that the spiritual exercise would inspire the governors to take bold steps in addressing the issues plaguing the Niger Delta. Quoting from the event’s advertorial, Evah stated, “A mother’s prayer is the solution to her children’s predicament.”
The organizers remain optimistic that the prayers of the mothers will bring about a positive transformation in the region’s leadership, ultimately leading to development and prosperity for the Niger Delta.
