The former Anambra State Governor noted it is past time for prayers alone to salvage the country.

“We have prayed enough, it is time to act. With these people in power? You can pray from now until any time, they won’t go until you chase them out.

“So it is time to act, not just pray. It is time for us to close the church and deal with these people,” he declared.

Obi also confirmed negotiations were ongoing between LP and NNPP.
