The Primate of the African Church, His Eminence Emmanuel Udofia, has urged Nigerians to support the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari to move the nation forward.
While speaking with newsmen during the inauguration of the Oka-Akoko Province in Ondo State, comprising Oka-Akoko Diocese, Ekiti Diocese, Ondo Central Missionary Diocese, Ekiti Oke Diocese, Kogi Diocese and Akoko-Idoani Diocese, Primate Udofia pleaded with Nigerians to continue to support the anti-corruption stand of the president.
The event also witnessed the installation of Most Rev. Toyin Adeyemi as the Archbishop of the province.
The primate noted that Buhari means well for the nation, particularly in the battle against corruption, which he said had militated against the development of the nation.
Udofia described the challenges confronting the country as a passing phase, saying it would soon turn to blessing.
“At the end of the day, God visited Israel and transformed their situation for good. So, the same thing can happen in Nigeria.”
The event was witnessed by the Church Provincial Trustee, Otunba Sehinde Arogbofa; the Provincial Vice Lay President, Chief Idowu Ogunsemi; former Ekiti State Deputy Governor, Paul Alabi and Provincial Secretary, Mr. Oni Friday.
Traditional rulers at the event include the Olubaka of Oka Akoko, Oba Yusuf Adebori Adeleye; Owa Ale of Ikare-Akoko, Oba Adegbite Adedoyin and Olupe of Ipeland, Oba Francis Apata.
