Video: Nigerian Presidential candidate Goes spiritual, visits Celestial Church for spiritual back up to win election

Through out the history of democracy in Nigeria, politicians have been known to go to extreme lengths during campaign to garner as much support as possible, and their desperation increases with the imminence of the election day.

 It is during campaign that their religious beliefs are set aside, ethnicity ceases to be an issue and they suddenly become humble. This is has been the case with the PDP presidential candidate; Atiku Abubakar who for weeks now has been going around the country humbly soliciting for votes among groups and  organizations outside his religion and ethnic group (and even getting endorsements from some of them). 

And as the election day becomes more imminent, he  has decided to take things a little further as he was spotted at a white garment church. And it's very certain that he was not there to pray but to solicit for support.

 He can be seen in the video standing with a juvenile demeanor and staring on, as the prophetess explains the reasons why he visited, saying among other things that "even Atiku knows he can't win the election by his own power".
