From
known celebrities to students, market women, corporate giants and
clergy women from different denominations all gathered last week for the
National Women's Prayer Summit with theme “The Supplication” hosted by
Jumoke Adenowo and Awesome Treasures Foundation to pray against
violence in Nigeria. More pics after cut…
Before
prayers were made, a woman would mount the podium and narrate her
personal story in the violence. A woman from Jos for instance came up
and graphically narrated how her community was burnt down with pregnant
women and children slaughtered in the process. As she spoke , what
started as one woman wailing uncontrollably in the back became a wave
that spread accross the room and everyone began to cry and pour their
hearts to God for the blood that was being shed across our nation
including actress Funke Akindele, Ufuoma Ejenobor, Tara Durotoye, Nike
Adeyemi, Mary Alibaba among others. Pics taken by famed photographer, TY
Bello.
