The
Senate will be fully represented in South Africa on Sunday for the
final clash of the 2013 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) between Nigeria
and Burkina Faso, Senate President David Mark has said.
Mark said this yesterday while congratulating the coaching crew and
players on their well deserved victory over the Eagles of Mali in
Wednesday’s semi-final tie in Durban.
The Senate president, who disclosed that the senators’ prayers had so far worked for the national team in the ongoing soccer competition, called for intensified prayers for the Super Eagles.
“I believe very many of you watched the match on Wednesday. I want to
congratulate the Super Eagles of Nigeria on behalf of the nation and of
course, the entire National Assembly on their victory over Mali. I
think our prayers have really worked so far. Our prayers have indeed
spurred the Super Eagles into action. Our prayer groups must therefore
intensify their prayers because it is the final victory that would crown
us the champion of football in Africa.
“I will go to South Africa to represent all of you on Sunday. So, we
will need serious prayers. So far, I think our prayers have worked. Our
prayers have spurred the Super Eagles into action. And I want to thank
all of you for your support”, said Mark.
