Peter Obi wasn't attacking the church, critically, he wasn't even against night vigils.

The fact you think he was attacking the church shows you're too dummy to understand the problems Nigeria is facing now not to talk of proffering solutions.
What Peter Obi was addressing in that interview is the lack of teachings that facilitate solid work ethics that brings about national productivity.
I'm sure you have heard this sayings— As goes the church, so goes the nation.
What happens in Schools, most Churches and Mosque is a reflection of what we see in Nigeria Today.
If the church and mosque teach their members right, it will show in the nation's economy, governance, education, and so many others.
If you read the protestant reformation and the teachings of the early protestants that brought about the western civilization that the whole world enjoys till date.
You would understand the fanatic problems of most churches today.
Note that I said most churches not all churches
Digression— I'm in one of the African countries to educate young people on the need for hard work as a tool to personal advancement which also lead to the advancement of their nations.
I will also be traveling to two other African countries this week for a conference on finance and personal productivity.
