Former Presidential Candidate, Dr. Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim, has visited Plateau State Governor, Caleb Muftwang, ahead of the Middle Belt Worship Convention in Jos.
Organised by the Covenant Altar of Worship, which Dr. Hashim leads, he seized the opportunity to condole with the governor over recent killings in the state and prayed for restoration of peace in Plateau, a state he described as a once thriving hub of the hospitality industry and agriculture.
The governor had earlier hosted the General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, who was in Jos for a similar activity.
On his part, Hashim, former presidential candidate, said God is set to do great and mighty things in Plateau state and Nigeria, hence the need for the people to return to Him in worship.
He also disclosed that the convention promises to be a significant event, promoting spiritual growth, unity, and faith in the Middle Belt region, while extending an invitation to the state government to participate in the worship convention to intercede on behalf of the state and Nigeria.
