He said, “it is the responsibility of government to provide roads for you, and that is what we are doing to see that the Elioparanwo road is completed before the end of the dry season. I have promised and we will do it, but, please, don’t use the state of the road now as an excuse to stop coming to church. We have paid the contractor and we hope he will deliver”, Amaechi said.
“I thank you (the church) for the honour of inviting me to church, especially at your 17th year anniversary celebration, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. What will solve the problem of the church is for you to come to church and join efforts with the General overseer to get things done”, Amaechi noted.
