He said: “We know it is not easy; we are solidly behind him; the church continues to stand with the government when the policies are right.
“The church speaks against what it considers inappropriate; the church speaks as a voice for the very many voiceless that cannot come to a place like this.
“So, when government is doing well, we will commend it; synergise with government; this is a great nation; in spite of all our challenges
“We have people who are dedicated and committed to the cause of national development.
“And then, for us in PFN, we are just glad to be part of that.’’
He urged Nigerians to join hands in building the nation; adding that the process of building was not easy.
Omobude said everyone had a contribution to make.
“ So, we call on all Nigerians to shrink what divides us and strengthen what unites us; then we can have a better nation.’’
