Worshippers Decry Weekly Harassment By FRSC Operatives At Dutse-Kubwa Axis In Abuja

0

Christian worshippers in the Dutse-Kubwa area of the Federal Capital Territory have raised the alarm over what they describe as weekly harassment by operatives of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), who reportedly mount routine roadblocks during peak church hours every Sunday.

According to affected residents, the FRSC officials, attached to the Sector Command, regularly set up checkpoints between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m., a critical window when many Christians are rushing to attend early morning church services. Motorists are forced to stop and submit their documents for inspection, leading to significant delays and lateness to church.

Worshippers who spoke with our correspondent described the checks as “avoidable” and “deliberately insensitive,” particularly because the same officers vacate the roads shortly after church services conclude.

Repeated pleas to the operatives to consider the impact of the operation on Sunday worship have reportedly fallen on deaf ears.

Our correspondent, who observed the situation firsthand at the Dutse Market roundabout, noted that the officials involved in the Sunday checkpoint operations were mostly Muslims. When challenged about the timing of the roadblock, one of the officers responded dismissively:

“You can wake up early. Wake up by 6 a.m. and go to your church if you don’t want your vehicle to be checked.”

When asked how he would feel if Christian officials delayed him during Friday Juma’at prayers, the official reportedly replied in anger, saying, “That is your business.”

He repeated his suggestion that worshippers should wake up earlier to avoid being caught in the checkpoint delays.

In an earlier response to enquiries from our correspondent, FRSC national spokesman Mr. Bisi Kazeem Adeniyi acknowledged the complaints and promised that the matter would be looked into. A top official of the corps also confirmed that the Sunday checkpoint operation was discussed internally and briefly suspended—but it resumed again just two weeks later, raising further concerns among residents.

What has sparked even greater suspicion, according to residents, is the fact that the checkpoint is dismantled immediately after church hours every Sunday, leading many to believe that the operation is specifically timed to disrupt Christian worship.

Community and religious leaders in the area are now calling on the FRSC leadership to investigate the matter thoroughly and put a stop to what they describe as “targeted and unnecessary harassment” of worshippers.

As of the time of filing this report, efforts to get an official statement from the FRSC Sector Commander in Abuja were unsuccessful.

Ekiti CP Orders Discreet Investigation Into Housebreaking Incident By Alleged Security Operatives

…Distances Police from Operation Flush Unit, Vows to Uphold Justice

The Ekiti State Commissioner of Police, CP Joseph Eribo, has ordered a discreet investigation into a disturbing incident of housebreaking by armed men believed to be security operatives, as seen in a viral video currently making rounds on social media.

The footage shows the operatives forcibly entering a residential apartment in Ado-Ekiti, raising public concern and sparking allegations that members of the Operation Flush Unit, a joint task force comprising multiple security agencies, were responsible.

In a statement issued by the Command’s Public Relations Officer, SP Abutu Sunday, the police firmly denied involvement in the operation, clarifying that the Nigeria Police Force in Ekiti State does not operate or maintain any unit known as “Operation Flush.”

“The Command is not part of the Operation Flush Unit as being alleged by a section of the public,” the statement read. “The Commissioner of Police has ordered a thorough and discreet investigation into the incident to establish the facts and ensure that justice is served.”

CP Eribo called for calm among residents and urged any victims or individuals with useful information to come forward and assist with the investigation.

Reaffirming the Command’s commitment to justice, the rule of law, and the protection of citizens’ rights, the statement assured the public that Ekiti Police will continue to prioritise the safety and security of all residents.

MRA, IPC Appeal Judgement In Suit To Compel CCB To Investigate David Umahi Over Attacks On Journalists

0

Media Rights Agenda (MRA) and the International Press Centre (IPC) have filed an appeal against the judgement of a Federal High Court in Abuja, which dismissed their suit requesting it to compel the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) to investigate their April 24, 2021, complaint against then Ebonyi State Governor David Umahi, whom they alleged abused his office and breached his oath of office when he ordered the arrest of a journalist and banned two journalists for life from entering any government facility in the state.

In a Notice of Appeal filed on their behalf by Abuja-based lawyer Mr. Noah Ajare at the Court of Appeal in Abuja, they said they are dissatisfied with the judgement delivered by Justice Obiora Atuegwu Egwuatu, in which he ruled that MRA and IPC failed to prove by credible evidence that their petition to the CCB was delivered to the Bureau and its Chairman and expressed concern that the two organisations may be “crying more than the bereaved,” as the affected journalists whose rights they were defending had not made any complaint to the CCB.

Justice Egwuatu’s judgement arose from a suit filed by the organisations on November 10, 2021, against the CCB and its chairman, following their submission of a joint petition to the CCB on April 24, 2021, and a follow-up on October 21, 2021, which the CCB failed to act upon. In the suit, MRA and IPC asked the court, among other things, to issue an order of mandamus compelling the CCB to carry out its duties as outlined in the Third Schedule to the Constitution, particularly Paragraph 3(e), and investigate their complaint against Mr. Umahi.

In their four-point Notice of Appeal, MRA and IPC are asking the Court of Appeal to uphold their appeal and set aside the entire decision of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, dismissing their suit as contained in the judgement delivered on November 29, 2024.

In their first ground of appeal, they contended that the Federal High Court erred in law by holding that they did not prove by credible evidence that their letters of complaint were served on the CCB and its Chairman as the court failed to properly consider the evidence presented by them, including the email sent to the CCB through its official email address and the courier evidence with waybill number 7186272155, which established service on October 21, 2021, adding that the court overlooked testimonies and documents that corroborated the claim of proper service.

In their second ground of appeal, MRA and IPC said the court misdirected itself in ruling that they did not have locus standi as NGOs to bring the action of behalf of the journalists as the court failed to recognize that as organizations dedicated to media rights and freedom of expression, they inherently possess the standing to advocate for the public interest.

Besides, they said the court did not adequately consider the implications of public interest and the role of NGOs in promoting accountability and transparency.

In their third ground of appeal, the organizations complained that the court erred in law in dismissing the case without properly considering the substantial public interest issues raised by them regarding the rights to freedom of expression, good governance and accountability.

According to them, the Court did not address the implications of the CCB’s alleged failure to act on the complaint, which relates to societal accountability and that the court’s dismissal of their suit on technical grounds undermined the merit of the substantive issues at hand, particularly those concerning the public well-being and governance.

In their fourth ground of appeal, MRA and IPC alleged that the court wrongfully dismissed their case without evaluating whether the CCB and its Chairman failed in their duty to investigate the allegations made by them.

They said the court erroneously concluded that the lack of proof of service negated the entire case, rather than considering the responsibility of the CCB and its Chairman to address complaints by the public.

Besides, the organizations argued that the court’s dismissal of their suit ignored established principles regarding the duty of public bodies to investigate legitimate public complaints.

No date has been fixed for the hearing of the appeal.

The exercise book distribution comes on the heels of another notable intervention by the Foundation, which recently provided Education Support Funds to over 500 students across the state to assist with tuition fees and other academic levies.

MDF’s guiding philosophy, “Leaving No One Behind,” reflects its broader commitment to supporting the vulnerable and promoting inclusive development in Nasarawa State. The Foundation’s interventions span education, health, and economic empowerment.

Dr. Maikaya, a respected community leader and development advocate, has consistently emphasised education as a cornerstone for building a progressive society. His vision for Nasarawa State is rooted in equality, opportunity, and justice for all, with a strong belief in investing in the next generation of leaders.

With its latest initiative, the Maikaya Development Foundation continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of students and underscores the transformative power of education.

In a remarkable display of political maturity and genuine statesmanship, the Governor of Gombe State, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, CON, earlier today hosted a grand reception in honour of his predecessor, Senator Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo, as the former governor gave his daughter, Hafsat, out in marriage.

The ceremony, held at the Gombe International Conference Centre, was graced by dignitaries from across Nigeria’s political spectrum, including the Senate President and Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Governors of Bauchi and Oyo States, members of the National and State Assemblies, traditional rulers, captains of industry and well-wishers from within and outside the state.

Speakers at the event acknowledged Governor Inuwa Yahaya’s decision to personally organise and host the reception as a shining example of leadership beyond partisanship. The gesture, they noted, has further cemented the Governor’s reputation as a unifying figure and a true servant of the people, committed to the values of peace, mutual respect and social cohesion.

In his goodwill message, the President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio, expressed deep appreciation to Governor Inuwa Yahaya for the warm reception extended to guests, describing the gesture as a rare act of sportsmanship and hospitality in Nigeria’s contemporary political space.

“We thank you for hosting us and for showing us such exceptional hospitality in honour of one of us. It is clear that Gombe State, under your leadership, has demonstrated a level of political tolerance and unity that is truly admirable,” Senator Akpabio said.

He added that “The presence of over seven senators here today, regardless of party affiliations, is proof of Senator Dankwambo’s unifying spirit and also a testimony to Gombe State’s peaceful and welcoming environment.”

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas echoed similar sentiments, praising Governor Inuwa Yahaya’s bridge-building role and the symbolism of unity reflected in the marriage itself.

I hope that today’s celebration will further strengthen the bonds that connect us, not only as leaders and colleagues, but as brothers and sisters committed to a greater Nigeria,” the Governor remarked.

63 Garlands To Apostle Ogu As He Clocks 63

0

By Eze Chukwuemeka Eze,

“….Apostle Ogu prophesied and encouraged Nigerians that amid the worst and darkest governance, there will surely come an arm of God through a wind that shall blow away every evil political knee that holds on the neck of Nigeria and Nigerians.

Such wind shall be irresistible and unstoppable because our salvation has come. Let him that has an ear let him hear, as the mighty shall run and crawl for safety but there shall be no hiding place for those who brought hardship on Nigerians….

Preamble

I learned of Apostle Eugene Egwuatu Ogu’s 63rd birthday celebration through a congratulatory birthday message sent by the political leader of the progressives in Nigeria, Rt. Hon. Barr. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi and decided to use this unique opportunity to expose to the world the little that I know of this great man of God who has touched millions of human beings since he decided to become an Axe in God’s Hands

The fact remains that writing about this man depends on one’s ability to comprehend the story of the blind men with the legendary elephant, where each interpreted the elephant depending on the angle of their touch of the elephant.v

Even as one of my areas of specialisation in the art of writing is writing on people but writing on this man of different parts was a huge task. I was at some point indecisive as to where to commence this treatise and I gestured and muttered to myself- “Do I start from his angle of philosophy or do I start with his missionary works to evangelise mankind and turn the worst of mankind to Saints.

What about his political activities?” Then I said to myself ‘I will only attempt, knowing that an attempt to holistically to do justice in x-raying the man -Apostle Ogu who rose out of nothing to the great man he is today, will mean writing a book.’

Apostle Ogu demonstrates God in action. A man who couldn’t finish his primary school owing to challenges but later rose to be an Author of many quality books with many Professors studying under him personifies nothing but God’s grace.

His story reminds me of Peter the Apostle who was a mere fisherman but rose to be the Leader of Christ’s Church on earth.

In brief, Eugene Egwuatu Ogu, an apostle, by the will of God, a charismatic and visionary leader, provocative thinker, philanthropist, and quintessential preacher, is the founder and Senior Pastor of Abundant Life Evangel Mission, Port-Harcourt, Nigeria.

I will urge you the reader to find time to go through this treatise and confirm the true nature of this man who has severally been described as a personification of godliness and an embodiment of Grace.

The Birth and Early Life of Apostle Eugene Egwuatu Ogu:

Born on the 22nd day of July 1962 in the city of Limbe Cameroon to an indigent Nigerian family, his parents Mr. & Mrs. Boniface Ogu (late) of Ndiuhu Amuzi, Obowo Local Government Area of Imo State, had hoped to bequeath the ten children of which Eugene was the fourth child with quality education.

Unfortunately, at a very early age in life, young Eugene lost his mother who was the breadwinner of the family and had to drop out of school at Primary 4, his highest level of education to date.

Nothing, therefore, prepared him for the new twist of life, at age 12, due to the inability of his father to fend for him and other children, he was given out as a houseboy to Mr. Edward Ikwenilo of No 13, Mbende Street, Limbe, Cameroon where he hawked palm oil amongst other house chores for 5 years.

On one fateful day, while hawking palm oil on the streets of Limbe, young Eugene missed his steps shattering his wooden crate containing over a dozen bottles of red palm oil with the broken bottles piercing through his body leaving him seriously injured. With such fearsome memory of his madam, Eugene wept profusely owing to the damaged wares and sat by the hills refusing to go home. At the intervention of a passerby who happened to be a Nigerian, he was taken back to his madam with an impression that he was pushed down. This, nonetheless, didn’t save him from been beaten by his madam.

With providence at play, the Nigerian stranger who had extracted some information from him managed to locate his elder brother, Dee Paulinus of blessed memory and narrated the very unfortunate state of Eugene in Cameroon. His elder brother then proceeded to Cameroon and brought him back to Nigeria where he commenced a second missionary journey through the vicissitude of life.

Apostle Ogu, How Men Despised Him and How God Rescued And Uplifted Him
Called by God (concrete evidences abound!) and consecrated for the Master’s use,

This humble servant of God embarked upon the tortuous and turbulent journey of soul winning and shepherding the flock without looking back. Prior to this historic calling, nothing prepared him for the task ahead, as his academic, social, and economic background had no form, comeliness, or beauty that we should desire him. Consequently, he was despised and rejected by men. But trust God and His infallible Word! Whoever He calls, He justifies, equips, and glorifies. Romans 8:30. Today, God has indeed, glorified Apostle Eugene Ogu. In variance with the thinking of men, God used foolish things to confound the wise. By the power of God Almighty, he moved from obscurity to limelight, from zero-catch disciple to boat-sinking catch apostle of Jesus Christ.

Details of His Encounter with Christ:

On his return to Nigeria, Eugene Ogu was given to Mr. Joseph Nwaobi of Bethel Industries to serve as a carpentry apprentice at No 114 Wetheral Road, Owerri, Imo State. In his lowly esteemed state, Eugene slept on the carpentry table for 4years and 7months where his Christian journey was marked by two distinct visits. His first remarkable and life-changing visit was from Sister Edith Onuoha who through the gift of Banana, Oranges and Paw-Paw exposed him to the inherent love in Christianity which prompted him to accept Jesus as his personal Lord and Saviour in December 1979. On the 27th day of September 1983 with His head and hair like white wool, as white as snow and his eyes as a flame of fire appeared the Lord to Eugene on his carpentry table while fast asleep. In the empty room, the voice reverberated Eugene:-

“I shall transform you and use you mightily to my glory”, this marked the beginning of a life transforming ministry.

As an early convert buoyed by the gift of the Holy Spirit, Eugene Ogu joined the Deeper Life Fellowship. His commitment and dedication exposed him to Pastor W. F. Kumuyi who taught him the virtue of humility. He then proceeded to the Redeemers Bible College, Lagos in 1984 under the late Papa Awubajo as principal while Pastor Enoch Adeboye was a lecturer at the Bible College from where he graduated in 1986.

In furtherance of his passion for the kingdom, since Deeper Life Fellowship was just like an interdenominational meeting at the time, Eugene joined the Christian Pentecostal Mission Owerri, recognizing his zeal for soul-winning, resourcefulness, and leadership qualities, after an interview, Papa Dr. O. Ezekiel, posted him to CPM Port Harcourt located at No 11 Egede lane to serve under Rev. Francis Worgu. Pastor Eugene Ogu went on to pastor several other branches of CPM.

The Mandate, Abundant Life Evangel Mission

The mandate ALEM was birthed by Apostle Eugene Ogu under the leadership and inspiration of the Holy Spirit with an instructive vision of Except We Care, the People Perish”. In pursuit of this new mandate, in 1988 with the approval and fatherly blessings of Papa Dr. O Ezekiel, the commission, Abundant Life Evangel Mission was founded. With prayers from Rev. Francis Worgu and other leaders of CPM Port Harcourt, Pastor Ogu was sent forth to conquer the city of Port Harcourt. In its modest state, ALEM started with a couple of members in the living room of Dr. & Dr. (Mrs.) Felix Okafor at Air-force Base, Port Harcourt, and later moved to no 112 Aba road, Port Harcourt (former CAC Ph) donated by Elder Friday Okorie of Assemblies of God Mission, Silver Valley, Port Harcourt.

With the visible manifestation of the mandate through salvation, healings, restoration, prosperity, and the prophetic, ALEM grew in numbers and substance, prompting the purchase of a piece of swampy and water-logged forested land at No 98 Omoi/Orosi. In defiance of the doubt by members, Pastor Ogu commenced the building of a worship auditorium and on the 8th day of December, 1991, ALEM held her first service at the auditorium.

As a result of the surge in membership, the newly built auditorium was restructured with extensions as ALEM had resorted to hiring canopies and chairs a few months after building the auditorium. By divine leading, in 2008 in an exemplary fashion, Rev Eugene Ogu spearheaded the building of the biggest cathedral at the time in Port Harcourt, on completion after 24 months, the cathedral was christened the Temple of Favour” in recognition of the abundant provision of Gods grace. Today, through the commission of ALEM, several other churches have been birthed, generational destinies shaped, souls won and the frontiers of the gospel expanded with the planting of several branches of ALEM within and outside Nigeria.

The Leader and Mentor:

With a burning desire and outstanding trait of being hard on issues and soft on people, Apostle Eugene Ogu’s leadership marks has been such with an impeccable history. He has served and serves as

-Vice Chairman, Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, Rivers State Chapter

-Chairman, Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, Rivers State and Bayelsa Chapter

– National Security Adviser, Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria

– Director, Ecumenism Christian Association of Nigeria, Rivers State Chapter

-Member, National Adjudicator, International Ministers Council of Great Britain and Nigeria

-Member, PFN State Advisory Council

-President, International Ministers Forum

-President, Arm of Hope Foundation amongst others

In all of these positions held, Apostle Eugene Ogu left an indelible mark as he championed the course of the Christian faith and humanity in general. His sterling leadership qualities has endeared him to many within and outside the faith, he is indeed by acts and words, a leader extraordinaire. His published books, Crossing Over Your Jordan, Seed of Change and The Price has greatly impacted and inspired many.

His Philanthropy and Feats:

Pastor Eugene Ogu invented the motto: “Except We Care, The People Perish”, and it was on this platform of caring for people, that the Arm of Hope World Outreach, a non-governmental organisation was founded. Through a nexus of charitable works, he extends a caring and compassionate arm of hope to the needy, less privileged and the hopeless. Today, hundreds of widows enjoy free Medicare with their children and scholarships for indigent students up to the University cadre. Through Arm of Hope World Outreach, succor has come the way of displaced victims of the incessant religious crises in the northern part of Nigeria.

In a world replete with self-seeking philanthropists, Apostle Eugene has carved for himself a niche of silently affecting the course of humanity driven by the vision of ALEM been Except We Care, the People Perish”. In a bid to coordinate the “acts of the gospel, Apostle Ogu and his beloved wife incorporated the Arm of Hope Foundation (a Non-Governmental Organization) in 2010 which broadened the reach of his arms to indigent families, orphans, widows and their children and displaced people due to natural or human disasters. To further underscore his unwavering passion for the advancement of human life, Apostle Ogu through the Arm of Hope Foundation has; in 2012, at a crusade organized by the JCCF Uniport, tagged: ‘Come and See’ offered scholarships to over 450 children of widows and widowers here in the University of Port Harcourt up until their graduation.

In response to the Jos crisis as a result of the herdsmen invasion that left over 354 persons dead, he built the Arm of Hope Grammar School, a free school in Dogo Nahauwa to rehabilitate the displaced children in the community as a result of the death of their parents.

He offered scholarships to over 4,000 indigent students at both primary and tertiary levels, donated over 50 borehole water to several communities, offers yearly free Jamb registration to indigent students and facilitates free JAMB classes, provides free medicals through assistance running into hundreds of millions of naira to members and strangers alike.

He Empowered over 5,000 men and women with start-up capitals and free skill acquisitions, facilitated free legal services for prisoners and oppressed Nigerians,

provided relief materials to Internally Displaced Persons in Borno, Plateau etc and facilitated the resettlement of Rivers and Bayelsa flood victims.

Apostle Ogu the Illiterate Lectures Professors:

A great teacher like his master Jesus Christ, Ogu, who ended his academic career in Elementary 4, teaches professors, Ph. D holders, pilots, engineers, medical doctors etc in his weekly New Convert Class. On one occasion the Use of English lecturer at University of Science & Technology, Port-Harcourt, a no-nonsense professor, sat under Apostle Ogu’s class, taking notes while Ogu was writing on the chalkboard!

As a pastor’s Pastor, Apostle Ogu has pastured over a thousand pastors in Nigeria and abroad, as his office is a spiritual Jerusalem for younger and older pastors, an oasis in the lives of spiritually arid Christians who come for counseling on a daily basis.

Politics:

Though as a father to all, not minding denomination or creed, he has an interest in progressive ideas and that brought him very close to the politics of Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, the erstwhile Governor of Rivers State and immediate past Minister of Transportation. Based on this, every morning, he reaches out to people on the hundreds of progressive Social Media platforms, with faith-induced messages. This he has continued to do over for six years or so and still counting.

Apostle Ogu the Dreamer Who Prophesied About the Gubernatorial Success of Amaechi:

As a custodian of kingdom hidden mysteries, Apostle Ogu ruffled some feathers in Rivers State when, under the anointing of the Holy Spirit, declared openly on 31st December 2006 Passover Night that, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi, the then Speaker of Rivers House of Assembly, as the next governor! Amaechi was later denied PDP gubernatorial ticket by President Obasanjo and Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, describing Amaechi ticket as k-legged. News agents feasted on this prophecy when Sir Celestine Omehia was eventually elected and sworn in as the governor. Many castigated Apostle Ogu and dismissed him as a false prophet. And the table turned on 25th October, 2007 when the Supreme Court sacked Governor Omehia and ordered that Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi be sworn in immediately as the governor, proving Apostle Ogu’s prophecy absolutely correct.

Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi Salutes This Great Icon of Our Time

In his tribute, the former Rivers State Governor and erstwhile Minister of Transportation, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi extolled the virtues of Apostle Eugene Egwuatu Ogu, the General Superintendent of Abundant Life Evangel Mission (ALEM) and the President, Arm of Hope Foundation (AHF), describing him as a great man of God with unshakable integrity, unyielding competence, transparency, humility, simplicity, and uncommon boldness-cum-fearlessness, who staked his life and spiritual reputation to stand on the side of truth and justice in the events that defined the 2007 governorship elections in Rivers state and culminated, eventually, in his emergence as the Governor of the state.

Amaechi went further to describe Apostle Ogu as a charismatic and visionary leader, pro-active thinker, philanthropist, and quintessential preacher, who joined in a spiritual partnership with the two-terms Governor of Rivers State, for service to humanity and Rivers people in particular, and in that union with the great man of God, benefited immensely from God’s favor thereafter.

While acknowledging the extensive services and the great impact of the Arm of Hope Foundation which was founded by Apostle Eugene Ogu and wife Millie, Amaechi recalled partnering with the Arm of Hope Foundation to erect a school for the less privileged and other compassionate and humanitarian deeds,

Apostle Ogu, who is famous for inventing the motto: “Except We Care, The People Perish” for the AHF, as a lover of men and a man who is always caring for people and willing to support every cause that seeks to protect those people in the society who live in the shadows of life,, through charitable works that has extended a caring and compassionate arm of hope and succour to the needy, less privileged, indigent folks, internally displaced victims of the incessant crises across the country and the hopeless in our society.

Eze highlighted that Apostle Ogu built a school in plateau state where 354 persons killed by Fulani herds men were buried and its free for all those who’s parents were killed since 2012 till date.

Apart from this great gesture, he pays the teachers from the church purse and all the victims students who graduated in the school are sponsored to write waec, jamb and through to university.

What a way to demonstrate the love of God to humanity

He has a picture with the indigent widows, children and orphans filling Scholarship forms and some of the orphans and widows children in Jos plateau state when I visited them recently

Marriage:

As a young minister in CPM, Pastor Eugene Ogu was captivated by the alluring beauty and character of Sis. Millie Uboho Ogu (nee Raphael) and on 5th December, 1987 they both tied the knot in holy matrimony. In their 37 years of marriage, through shared mutual love and understanding, Pastor Barr. Millie Ogu has been a strong support base. The marriage is blessed with one biological son, Mr. Emmanuel Ozioma Ogu and a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Tena Ogu.

Eulogy:

At sixty-three years, Apostle Eugene Ogu, the Lead Pastor of ALEM, a precise teacher of the word, a song minister, great yet humble servant of God, an acclaimed mentor, a preacher par excellence, is widely acclaimed for his boldness, fearlessness, tenacity, uncompromising stance for the truth. He is a social crusader and a revered Minister of the gospel of Christ.

He is a true Man of God, selfless and very unassuming, a man buoyed by the passion for humanity. With due respect to our teeming guests and with a standing ovation, here is our esteemed father, teacher, preacher, prophet, mentor, Apostle Eugene Egwuatu Ogu.

HIS PROPHECY ABOUT THE FUTURE OF NIGERIA

Apostle Ogu prophesied and encouraged Nigerians that in the midst of worst and darkest governance, there will surely come an arm of God through a wind that shall blow away every evil political knee that hold on the neck of Nigeria and Nigerians .

Such wind shall be irresistible and unstoppable because our salvation has come . Let him that has an ear let him hear, as the mighty shall run and crawl for safety but they shall be no hiding place for those who brought hardship on Nigerians

Conclusion:

I plead with the entire world to join me to celebrate and wish 63 Garlands to Apostle Eugene Egwuatu Ogu, God’s Axe for a better Nigeria, a General in God’s Vineyard, An outstanding Philanthropist, Peter the Rock of our generation, A Maverick Revolutionist, an enigmatic per excellence, a Progressive of repute and a Phenomenal Personality as he clocks 63.

Happy birthday sir, I wish you God’s stead and more fruitful years ahead for better services to humanity.
