The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the security agencies in the country have been told to faithfully work towards delivering a free, fair and credible 2019 general elections.

Prophet Muyideen Kasasi who made the call said the success of the polls depend largely on the good conduct of the INEC officials, its ad hoc staff from the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC)and security agents urging them to sustain the peace and unity of our country.

Kasali who is the General Overseer of the Hour of Mercy Prayer Ministry Worldwide Orioke (Alaseyori) Moniya, Ibadan  spoke during the February edition of Hour of Mercy programme which herald 13th anniversary of the programme and the  prophet’s birthday celebration.

“All eyes are on INEC, the security agents and the corps members who will conduct the polls .They must fear God and be thorough in their conduct during and after the election.

On the impending polls, Prophet Kasali, said the elections is not about who wins but what Nigerians stand to gain and benefit thereafter.

“The youths must eschew violence. INEC has power over the polls but it must be seen to be fair and do things right. Security agent must do their best to protect the people before, during and after the polls.

“Electorate should be allowed to vote according to their conscience and for the candidate of their choice.

Neither Buhari nor Atiku can declare themselves winners of the election but INEC. They should just do things right and allow peace to reign in the country.

The cleric, who urged Nigerians to pray for the country said, ” we should rely on God’s wisdom and not our own understanding.

“We should pray against famine and the prices of goods that may go skyrocketed. Corps members should not allow themselves to be compromised so that the glory of tomorrow will not be taken away by today’s loss, he concluded”.
