Former Enugu Local Government Chairman Pastor Sam Iyiogwe has expressed regrets over the misfortune of the former Deputy President of the Senate Ike Ekweremadu, calling for prayers.
Ekweremadu is currently being detained in London following complications over attempted organ transfer involving his daughter.
Speaking in a chat with EverydayNews Iyiogwe expressed concern over the unfortunate situation.
He said; “Ekweremadu is a man who has been a blessing to Nigeria and to Enugu West senatorial zone and the state. In life there are always challenged and trial periods.
“What has happened is a keen desire to save the life of their daughter, a daughter of Enugu State, a daughter of Igbo land. It’s something all of us should put them in prayers; for God to Intervene with mercies.
“I appeal to every Enugu person to put him and the family in prayers; as there’s no part of human body that God cannot heal or at best replaced and as such He can perfect the girl miraculously.”
Iyiogwe noted that the ordeal of this nature should be a serious wake up call to every Nigerian especially people in positions of Authority to ensure that all Sectors of our Nation are restructured and transformed.
He said there is no reason Nigeria should not have efficient and quality Health, Educational, and Infrastructural Systems.
“Even Petroleum Products are being imported from Niger Republic. The Insecurity in our nation is man made. What does it take us to develop good Police Force. Why can’t we fund them adequately and make them to be independent; free from political manipulation.
“There are so many people languishing in prisons and police cells for offences that they didn’t commit. Many unfortunate ones have equally been killed for nothing because of abuse of security agents. Tribal and religious sentiments are the ruling factors in our nation’s security systems. As a nation, we must wake up because we have all the necessary resources and man power to make Nigeria great again.”
