President of Faith Women Fellowship Ministry International, Evangelist Lydia Idoko, has charged Nigerian leaders to be transparent, practical and listen to the cries of the people.
Evangelist Idoko, who during the ministry’s 39th anniversary prayer conference in Makurdi, reflected on the state of the nation, told leaders that “If you must leave a legacy, you must care deeply for the people and walk in their shoes. You must be transparent, be practical, and let your leadership make a difference in real lives.
The woman of God urged Nigerians not to despair or relent in prayers assuring that God has already begun to intervene in the affairs of the nation following persistent intercessory prayers.
She noted that the country is already experiencing spiritual breakthroughs that will soon translate into visible transformation.
“We believe that God is already intervening in the realms of the spirit. The prayers have gone up, and we are now watching for the manifestation. God is at work, and change is coming,” she declared.
Evangelist Idoko emphasized that prayer is not just a religious routine, but a powerful tool to influence governance and society.
She maintained that while spiritual responsibility is key, those in political authority must also play their part by leading with compassion and integrity.
“Leadership is a temporary assignment. Our leaders must listen to the cries of the people. If you must leave a legacy, you must care deeply for the people and walk in their shoes. Be transparent, be practical, and let your leadership make a difference in real lives,” she said.
The event, themed “Prayer, a Lifeline,” brought together women and intercessors from various parts of the country for two days of intense supplication for Nigeria, with a particular focus on national leadership and the welfare of ordinary citizens.
Idoko while reflecting on the ministry’s 39-year journey, described it as one of resilience, divine encounters, and discovery, crediting the ministry’s longevity to the power of God and the consistency of prayer.
She said “The triumph of these years is not by our strength, it is God’s doing. We have seen His hand in every situation, and that is why we believe He is already doing something new in Nigeria.”
Idoko called on citizens not to relent in prayer, assuring that while the process may not be immediate, divine intervention is already in motion.
