There is no doubt that Nyesom Wike, has portrayed himself in recent times as a governor that believes in prayers as there is hardly any Sunday that the governor is not seen among congregations of different Christian denominations.

Governor Nyesom Wike's regular visits to worship centres for prayers for his hot gubernatorial seat shows the amount of faith he has in spirituality. There is hardly any Sunday that the Ikwerre-born politician is not seen among congregations of different Christian denominations. His position of authority in Nigeria has made his passion for worshipping God public.

Contrary to his attitude of worship, it should be recalled that Wike never expressed his current hunger for prayers before the heat of the gubernatorial election in March and April 2015.

Within the past one month, he has been to many churches seeking and getting prayers for himself and the success of his administration.

Just last week, Wike was at the Royal House of Grace International Church where another guest of the church and a renowned cleric, Dr. Uma Ukpai, prayed for him and described him as an asset to the state.

The General Overseer of the Royal House of Grace, Apostle Zilly Aggrey, also prayed for the governor.

A week before his visit to Apostle Aggrey’s church, Wike had been to The Lord’s Chosen Church, where he also got a large dose of prayers from the general overseer of the church, Pastor Lazarus Mouka. It was at the Lord’s Chosen Church that he ordered that a major road leading to the church be reconstructed based on his pledge during his previous visit before the general election.

The ‘praying governor’ has also received clerics from the Methodist Church and Archibishop Ignatius Kattey of the Anglican Church at the Government House in Port Harcourt and none of them left without praying for him and the success of his administration.

There is no doubt that this coming Sunday, Wike is likely to be found on his knees in a church praying or being prayed for. With such an outpouring of prayers for Wike, his supporters hope that the ongoing election petition tribunal will rule in his favour.

Now, the question is, will the governor step up his heat of worship when he finally cements his stand as the governor of Rivers state or will he derail?
