Giving Is A Mission Everyone Must Support – Soludo Says

CHRISTIAN ABURIME

Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, has commissioned the Seraphic Psychiatric Hospital and Old People’s Home, Aguleri.

 

The Governor commissioned the four hundred-bed facility built by the Zion Prayer Movement Outreach.

Speaking at the event, Governor Soludo lauded the Spiritual Director of Zion Prayer Outreach, Evangelist Ebuka Obi for having the presence of mind to construct such facility, stating that it fully aligns with him as a person and what his government is doing.

“Thank you because what you have done is to live out the true essence of Christianity”, the Governor noted.

While emphasizing that Evangelist Obi is changing the narrative, the Governor lamented that sadly, some others in ministry have turned it into an opportunity to enrich themselves. “Evang. Obi is sending a message to all christians and asking a question; who are you able to lift up? Now is the time to give.

The Governor assured of his administration’s readiness to partner with the hospital and promised monthly support to encourage them to do more.

“This is what government should be doing, but we cannot do it alone. In response to your plea, we will provide you with transformer for electrification and we will also construct the access road into this facility.

Earlier, Evangelist Ebuka Obi said that the programme is not a political function, stating that he was received by the Governor at the Light House. “I can’t come to Anambra without calling on the Governor and I went to the Light House, Awka. I have never seen a project like that- in fact, it is a mini-city. I’m impressed, may God bless you.

He revealed that the Psychiatric facility will become fully functional by next month, adding that building such a facility had been his childhood vision and hinted that similar projects will be built in other states of the federation.

 

The Governor had earlier received Evangelist Obi at the Light House, Awka, before proceeding to venue of the event.
