The Convener, Global Crusade with Kumuyi, GCK, and General Superintendent, GS, Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor Dr William F Kumuyi, yesterday, hailed the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara over support for the gospel of Christ in the State.
Kumuyi who just concluded a 6-day Global Crusade with the theme ‘Prevailing Prayers’ in Port Harcourt, which started from February 22-27, 2024, with thousands of participants from within Rivers State and neighbouring States, said the support of Governor Fubara is highly commended and appreciated by the Deeper Christian Life Ministry and the entire body of Christ in the State.
Being represented by the River State Overseer, Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor Andrew Osagie, while speaking during a side event of the GCK, the Ministers, Church Workers and Professionals’ Conference with the theme, ‘Staying Faithful Amid End-Time Ministry Challenges’, at the Obi Wali International Conference Centre, Port Harcourt, said the Governor’s practical partnership with the body of Christ in the State promotes peace and stability in the State.
He said: “We want to thank His Excellency, Sir, Similaiyi Fubara, GSSRS, the Executive Governor of Rivers State, for his magnanimity. For his practical partnership with the church.”
“In his inaugural speech at the swearing-in ceremony as Governor, he promised to be in partnership with the church and he has always fulfilled that.
“The place we use here, is owned by the State Government. He has given here to us, twice now, free of charge.
“What ought to cost millions , he gave it to us free of charge for these many days. “This is practical partnership. He has not only said it with his mouth, he has demonstrated it.
“We just want to thank God for Governor Similaiyi Fubara and we pray that the almighty God will keep him to fulfil his purpose in this state like King Cyrus.”
Meanwhile , the Convener of GCK also commended the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, and the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, for the unity, love, sacrificial spirit and selflessness in mobilising the people in the State to make the programme a success.
