Our Heavenly Father, the maker of the whole universe, the giver of lives, King of Kings, the Almighty God, hallow be thy name O’Lord.
God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob, I pray that You would bless our governor Rt. Hon. Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri with Your divine wisdom and the mind of Christ, so that he can make decisions with understanding and humility. I acknowledge Your Supreme authority and ask that our governor would rightly appropriate Your place in his life. Grant him the grace to lead this great people, just like you granted Moses the ability to rule and lead thy people out of Egypt, help your servant, our governor to lead Adamawa State to its rightful destination. AMEN!

I know that all of these that is happening, none surprises you because we have falling short of thy glory. I know you are at work in ways that we cannot see. I therefore pray, O’Lord, please guide our governor Fintiri to the right direction you want the state to move. Teach him the ways of leadership, reveal to him the deep secret things of God and open his eyes to see vision and guide his decision to honour you and let his actions be to the general good of all people. AMEN!

With the general political climate throughout Nigeria, members of political parties and congress are fiercely divided into tribal and religious, unwilling to work together and compromise for the good of the people. I pray O’Lord against this divisiveness that plagues our land. I humbly plead that, by your mercy and miraculous power, let the members of assembly, politicians, civil servants and religious leaders put their agendas aside and work together in humility and harmony to serve for the good of our people. AMEN!
“He appointed judges in the land, in each of the fortified cities of Judah. He told them, ‘consider carefully what you do, because you are not judging for mere mortals but for the LORD, who is with you whenever you give a verdict. Now let the fear of the LORD be on you. Judge carefully, for with the LORD our God there is no injustice or partiality or bribery.’” – 2 Chronicles 19:5-7
Lord Jesus, You are the Righteous Judge who will judge the nations. I lift up our Judiciary and courts. I pray that our judges would judge rightly before you and uphold what is true. I pray for balanced judgment that upholds our constitution and the rule of law. Grant them divine wisdom to decipher what is right. AMEN!
Finally, As the court decides in the election petition of Adamawa State, Lord I pray, may evil not triumph over good and may the will and wish of the people never be trampled upon. AMEN!
Oh God My Father, I commit Governor Fintiri unto your hands, I pray that you uphold him and guide him all through his stewardship as governor of Adamawa State and beyond, protect him the claws and wraths of his enemies and enemies of the state, grant him new ideas for continuous execution of people-oriented governance. I pray that all things be to the glory of your name and the benefit of all people of Adamawa State in JESUS NAME. AMEN!
