LAGOS – Senator Oluremi Tinubu, yesterday, said that the state of insecurity in the country has degenerated, urging Nigerians to pray for divine intervention.

Senator Tinubu, who spoke to journalists in Lagos, during the Christian Pentecostal Mission International Women of Vision International Conference, said there was a form of evil going on in the country that must be tackled spiritually.

Tinubu prayed that God should  touch the hearts of  those that are responsible for recent crisis, adding that Nigeria was not known for such terrorist activities.

She said: “In the spiritual realm, we see that there is something terrible that is going on and we need prayers for God to intervene and touch the heart of those responsible for these dastard acts.”

Tinubu, who said some  of the terrorists arrested in Jos, Plateau State, were not normal, called on President GoodLuck Jonathan to urgently tackle the issue of power in the country,  as rise in mental illness has been linked to emission of carbon monoxides from generating sets.
