WARRI—APOSTLE Oluwafemi Praise, Founder of Torch of Liberty International Church, has launched the I  believe in the Nigeria Project, in his resolve to awaken national consciousness, unity and pride,  with a view to returning  Nigeria to a lofty height.
In a chat with Vanguard in Warri, Delta State, the cleric explained that the project was to create awareness for nation building, patriotism and righteousness. According to him, it is also to project spirituality in leadership and encourage church leaders to pray for people in authority.

“The project is to encourage people to identify with the national flag, the national anthem, the coat of arms, the naira, Nigerian passport, national identity card, our colour and the Nigerian map.”

He also said that those clamouring for zoning are implying that Nigeria is not one. “What we should be concerned about is credible leadership, aperson who will address issues affecting everybody,” hesaid.

The  calling for zoning is indirectly championing a cause fo a divided Nigeria,” he added.
Apostle Praise added that Americans and Indians do not talk of zoning but credible leadership and better economy.

“They are always proud of their country, they have respect for their national anthem and country,” he added.
