(By Nk'iru. Njoku) - "Many people pray more when they're in Naija than when they're out here. Because
being in certain parts of the world, you do not need to pray for basic
amenities. They are there, they work. You know they will work. If there's a
problem, it will be fixed. Back home, my people pray so much because the country is broken and the only way some of us get to feel like we are doing anything about it is when we physically engage ourselves in vigorous prayer, for OURSEVLES.
Whether prayers are answered or not, the energy that leaves us during prayer is enough to make us feel like we've done something.
Plus, prayer makes our people hopeful. Sometimes things are so incredibly bad that hope is all a person has."
