In a classic demonstration of his trademark politics of no bitterness, the Gubernatorial Candidate of the All Progressives' Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom State, Obong Nsima Ekere, on Sunday, called for a peaceful election and publicly embraced his opponent, Governor Udom Emmanuel, during the closing ceremony of the New Year prayer and fasting assembly of the Catholic Diocese of Uyo. Ekere drew thunderous cheers and applause from thousands of worshippers and others present when he dramatically walked to where the Governor was seated and embraced him moments after being honoured by the Catholic Bishop of Uyo, Dr. John Ayah, in appreciation of his (Ekere's) contributions to the development of the church. The APC standard bearer's gesture was commended by the clearly elated Bishop. The immediate past Governor of the state, Senator Godswill Akpabio, who has been at loggerheads with his successor, did a similar gesture by going to greet Emmanuel after speaking at

YOU CANNOT GET BY PRAYER WHAT YOU SHOULD  GET BY CHARACTER & OBEDIENCE A man’s character is his fate- Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States (US), said: “Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.” As a clergyman, I have watched pitiably how people self-sabotage themselves by seeking spiritual solutions to character-deficit issues.

Arguments don’t improve the validity of a ‘truth;’ they only determine how lo

Preaching on the theme, Apostle (Dr) Patrick Jerome shared the story of David and Goliath and how David was able to destroy the fierce oppressor of his brethren. He added that as Obong Nsima Ekere and his people have recognized and sought the face of God, they shall all, like David, triumph over their enemies in the opposition, as they would become victorious in the next year's poll. He assured them that their help is from He (God) who made the heavens and the earth, adding that God who will neither suffer their feet to be moved nor allow the sun or the moon to smit
