The announcement for the week-long fast was made by the Chairman of the PDP Christian Religious Body, Presidential Campaign Council, Boni Haruna, who tagged the event, ‘At the Supreme Court of Heaven with Chief Justice of Universe’.

Haruna specified that the prayer’s purpose was to “denounce the Independent National Electoral Commission’s president-select and rescue and recover PDP for Nigeria”.

 

The biblical passages for the event will be taken from Romans 8: 33, Psalms 84: 10-11, and Proverbs 24: 25-26; 9: 7 – 8.
