According to him, all participating denominations are expected to gather in the evenings of each of the days set aside for the prayers.<\/p>\n

He appealed to CAN members to pray God to give the political leaders in the country the wisdom to do justice and show fairness to all manner of persons irrespective of ethnic group, creed and religion.<\/p>\n
