As far as I am concerned, there is nothing wrong with men of God going into politics. After all, people who are not men of God have been involved and nothing changed. So, if it will take a man of God to change it, the Bible says when the righteous is on the throne, the people rejoice. If we have credible men of God who can rule, why not.

There is growing fear that farmers might not return to farms ahead of the farming season particularly as hundreds of people have been killed in deadly clashes and thousands displaced due to Boko Haram attacks.
