The billionaire business mogul, talking to thelaurel.com.ng, said the focus of the prayer session is to pray for Nigeria and the leaders for a greater country, free of insecurity and buoyant economy.

In his words: “I am really happy to witness another Sallah. The citizens should pray more for our leaders so that they can give the citizenry what they deserve.”

In the same vein, his wife, Dr. (Mrs) Folashade Okoya, chief executive officer, Eleganza Industrial City, also affirms that the gathering is specifically to pray for Nigeria.
