The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has been criticized by some Nigerians over his visit to Koinonia Global Ministries on Sunday.
Koinonia Global Ministries is an interdenominational worship centre founded by Apostle Joshua Selman. The members meet in Abuja.
During his visit, Obi had urged Nigerians to pray for politicians because they are the problem the country is having.
He urged the citizens to pray that politicians would stop stealing government funds.
However, Obi has been criticized by some social media users for visiting churches like he did during the 2023 presidential election.
Some Nigerians who frowned at Obi’s visit to the church took to their X handle to register their disapproval.

“Lol Naso. He waited until the campaign before he went to that church.”
@Dgreatayfocus: “Playing religious cards during an election is allowed, I will only have a problem with you if you criticise another politician when they play theirs.
