Banigo Solicits Spiritual Support For Repentant Cultists

As cultists in Rivers
State begin to embrace the Amnesty Programme of the State Government, the State Deputy Governor, Dr. (Mrs) Ipalibo Harry Banigo, has called on the Church to partner with the state government by proffering spiritual succour to repentant cultists in the state.
In a statement through her Press Secretary, Paul Damgbor, the Deputy Governor who lauded Governor Wike for the initiative, said the church has a crucial role to play in the rehabilitation of repentant cultists, stressing that since cultism and kidnapping are the handiwork of demonic influence, there is the need for the church, as a change agent to lead cultists to Christ even as they denounced their devilish and criminal activities in order to be properly integrated into the society.
She commended cultists and kidnappers who have decided to embrace the Amnesty Programme and live responsible lives and enjoined them to be steadfast and resolute in their new life as the Governor Nyesom Wike-led administration is committed to the general welfare of all citizens.
The Deputy Governor advised those who are still sitting on the fence to join the restoration train and get converted from their criminal lifestyles before it’s too late adding that a secured Rivers State, would attract more investors and boost the economy of the state.
Dr. Banigo appealed to the people of the state not to stigmatise cultists who have genuinely repented and embraced the Amnesty Programme, urging those who have turned a new lease of life to build their foundation in God who has answer to all their needs.
