In her address, Prophetess Ajiye emphasized that the President must deepen his relationship with God, asserting that success in leadership and the forthcoming election depends on spiritual commitment. "My advice for our President is that he should be closer to God, love Him, and walk more with Him because there is nothing anyone can do without God's assistance," she said.

Speaking on the state of the nation, Ajiye maintained that Nigeria's progress depends on both leaders and citizens embracing faith and righteousness. "Nigeria is in God's hands, and that is why I advise all our leaders to be closer to Him. Between now and next year, we shall witness goodness in this country if we all return to God," she stated.
