Dr. Gumi, who was born the same year the nation got its independence, spoke with Daily Trust on the state of the nation 60 years after independence and how Nigerians can overcome the country’s challenges.

We'll pray, and celebrate as well

Sure.

Confusion everywhere... I pity the person that will be president in 2023.

Wallahi kuwa

What we need is prayers. We have nothing to celebrate, when failure is staring on at us on the face. Celebrations don't go with lamentations. O' my native land of 1960. Who has bewitched you?

Neither prayers nor celebration is needed but division

After so much harm from your likes.

Good idea 👏👏

this is the true talk, many challenges faces us. Prayer and working hard for building our nation is what remains for us.

Why not both? Malam

True talk 👍

People always come forward to say what Nigeria need..and it's always been prayer! But prayer to who? Nigeria need men like NelsonMandela who can sacrifice what they can worthily lose to revive what worth reviving.. a nation ! How many men can do this in Nigeria ? Until then!

Keep praying

We don’t need anymore prayers but actions been taken

SodiqTade We have been praying for 60 years. Let's actually work for 10 years at least. The Bible says...faith without work is dead.

Nigeria doesn't need prayers. She needs revolution.

Nigeria need divide ASAP

its_shamex Mad!!!!

SodiqTade Where are those your sharp preachings of yesteryears?

We need to stage a massive and non ethnically influenced protest against this evil government! Heaven will then help us!

Fact

Prayer doesn't help Nigeria but action just like other countries. You should stop to canjole us under the disguise of prayer

surely! Prayer is a successful key for everything. We shall pray Insha-Allah.

On 1st October as NIGERIA turns 60, I appeal to all PATRIOTS to mostly tweet historic photos, quotes, sceneries, things that shows our past greatness & potential futures. Its time for us to have personal Naija albums.

But under GEJ, prayers was not necessary. Ndi Ala

Which prayer while fulanization of Nigeria is on

Even that prayer is not even enough sir, because God has answered our prayers longtime ago with ABURI ACCORD. But deaf people refused to listen, the results are Boko Haram, fulani herdsmen and Bandits.

Fool We need disintegration

Tabbas hakanne malam

God bless you.

Now he is nearly there but not, we don't need prayers we need action backed up by prayers

Nigeria doesn't need prayers, Nigeria problem is man made

What is the prayer point, to avoid praying amiss?

Nigeria doesn't need any prayers, Nigeria problem is made. Western countries think of solutions to solve what ever problem they encounter but Nigeria is always calling for prayers.

Have we not being praying, Alhaji Gumi? Maybe you just want to throw tantrums at Buhari as usual.

We have been praying for over 50 years, we have the highest number of churches and mosques in the whole world. We need action now to save what is left of this Country ,if it is still salvage able

We don’t need prayer we need revolution. Thank you

That's true malam

Serious prayers mallam
