The Deputy Governor of Anambra State Dr Nkem Okeke has called on religious bodies to continually remember the State and Nigeria in their prayers for God’s intervention on insecurity ravaging all parts of the Country in the recent past.
He made the call during the burial service of the Late Very Reverend Chike Ikeotuonye Nwizu at Saint Christopher’s Church, Ndiakwu Otolo Nnewi in Nnewi North Local Government Area.
Correspondent Emmanuel Okonkwo reports that Dr Okeke who acknowledged God as the protector of life, said that religious bodies in the State must support the efforts of the State government in protecting life and property.
Earlier in a sermon, the Archbishop of Enugu Ecclesiastical Province and Bishop of Enugu Diocese, Most Reverend Emmanuel Chukwuma regretted that materialism has driven many Christians out of God’s love, reminding the people that a day is coming when all mortal will appear before God to give account of stewardship hence the need for them to always maintain good relationship with their creator.
The Late Very Reverend Chike Ikeotuonye Nwizu who died at the age of eighty-eight, was a former Provost of the Cathedral Church of the Good Shepherd Enugu.
