The Adamawa Government on Friday announced that
it had earmarked N200 million to engage prayer
warriors to seek divine intervention toward ending
the state’s lingering security challenges.
Alhaji Abdurahman Jimeta, Chief of Staff, Adamawa
State, disclosed this in a media chat aired on the
Adamawa State Television in Yola.
Jimeta explained that the money was sourced from
the state and Local Governments joint account.
“We have earmarked N200 million for prayers to
seek for Allah’s intervention in tackling the Boko
Haram menace and other insecurity challenges
threatening the stability of the state,’’ Jimeta said.
He said that part of that money, which would be
spent as security votes, would go into assisting local
vigilance teams and security operatives.
On agriculture, he explained that the state
government had ordered fertilisers worth over N3
billion for the 2015 farming season.
He called for massive support toward the success of
government efforts for a peaceful and stable
Adamawa, adding that not much could be achieved in
an atmosphere of chaos.
