He said that with genuine prayer to Almighty God, Nigeria would grow out of its current socioeconomic challenges.

According to the Senate President, “With prayers, Insha Allah, we will overcome [recession] it.

“The most important thing is for us to stay together and give the president support and continue to believe in this great country that we all have and be rest assured that we will all weather the storm and scale through together.

“Once again, as a country in this period we will continue to pray. On Sunday, the day of Arafat, we offer prayer for our leaders and president so that we can do what is right; because we feel the pain, we know what the country is going through.
