He emphasized that prayer and civic responsibility should align, especially in shaping leadership.

According to him, Christians cannot genuinely desire God’s kingdom to be established while endorsing governance marked by corruption, injustice, or moral compromise.
He urged believers to reflect deeply on their electoral decisions, stressing that voting is both a spiritual and social responsibility.
The statement has since sparked widespread reactions, with some agreeing that faith should influence political choices, while others argue for a separation between personal beliefs and governance.
