Never before have I seen or heard of a single politician's victory celebrated by everyone regardless of political parties, ethnic, religious and other bias like this. And the fact that God chose the Xmas season to do this surely makes him the greatest Xmas present a people have ever received.
However, the expectations corollary abound. Everyone is expecting so many things and so much from him. And what touches me the most is when I see people in Keke, buses, taxis, at plaza, streets etc thanking God sincerely from their heart for Onofiok Luke.
Then what follows is how they believe so much in him to make everybody happy. Truly we all share this beliefs. But when last did we take out time amidst our happiness, thankfulness and expectations to pray for these beliefs? Have we also asked God to grant him the wisdom, resources, cooperation and all things ancillary to his performance? Don't we think it's important to pray for the Speaker? Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown let alone "the wig". Even myself writing this- I'm guilty of this oversight. That's why I'm calling on all of us to make out time and pray for the success of our speaker. Thank God tomorrow is Sunday, so as we go to church we should make it our prior duty in the service. But peradventure the devil decides to go and wait for us at the church tomorrow we may also want to take him by surprise and do the prayer immediately (today) so we don't forget tomorrow.
Onofiok must succeed and we owe him the duty and love to help him in prayers, reason and otherwise! God is not a magician! So is Onofiok Luke.
Akwaibom dakkada!
