he will be able to face the responsibilities and carry them out so that
at the end of his tenure, we will be able to say, of a truth, this is
God’s handiwork. The church will continue to pray for the President and
the President-elect,” He said.

On the results of the General Election, he said “We
are grateful to God. The children of God have been praying, even though
we did not know what would be the outcome. But the result is what we see
today. We have peace. We had wonderful elections and the outcome of the
elections did not result in burning of houses and killing of innocent
people. The nation is at peace with itself. So, we really thank God for
what He has done for us as a nation.

“Even our international counterparts never expected
that things would go this way. Our God is an all-knowing God. He knows
where He is taking us to and even though each of us has his/her own
thought, the Bible says God knows the end from the beginning. All the
things that gave us fear and anxiety, He knew how to quell them. So, the
election came and the election has gone. We heard the result.

“The pronouncement of President Goodluck Jonathan
conceding defeat to Gen. Buhari is significant and gets to be written in
the book of records, not just in Nigeria, but in the whole world. As
you can see, many people have been sending goodwill messages to Nigeria,
appreciating what President Jonathan did. This is the first time a
sitting president, who conceded defeat, has acknowledged that defeat and
congratulated his opponent,” he stated.
