Wike Will Be President Some Day -Cleric …Church To Open New Satellite Parish

Published

on

The Senior Prophet and General Overseer of Dynamic Flame of Fire and Miracle Ministries in Woji Community, Port Harcourt, Prophet U. O. Miracle, says the Governor of Rivers State, Chief Nyesom Wike will some day be the President of Nigeria. This is even as the church has set machinery in motion to open its new mega satellite parish in Rumuodomaya Community in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area, slated for Sunday, September 4, 2022.
Prophet Miracle, who gave the indication while preaching the sermon during Sunday’s service in Port Harcourt, centered on, ‘You Are A New Creature’, said Wike will surely rule Nigeria as President in future, going by his good works, boldness and doggedness, and confidently told the congregation to mark his words.
He further noted that he loves Governor Wike for his boldness and penchant to speak the truth, and expressed displeasure over former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi for apparently playing into the hands of Hausa/Fulani, who allegedly deceived him that they were going to support and endorse him to be President of the country.
Prophet Miracle harped on the need for leaders to carry along their people while in office. He gave the admonition against the backdrop of what befell Amaechi, who he said apparently forgot his Rivers people while he was Minister, and regretted a situation where railway lines that were serving his people had been dismantled.
The man of God also recalled that Amaechi equally fought and worked against his brother, Goodluck Jonathan, who lost the 2015 presidential election toPresident Muhammedu Buhari. He lamented the fact that Northerners and others are today enjoying modern rail transportation while Amaechi’s people are deprived.
To buttress his point that leaders should always carry along their people while in office, Prophet Miracle cited the case of Buhari, who positioned his Hausa/Fulani people in virtually all critical sectors of the economy.
The man of God, who is well known for the miracles performed by his church, regretted that Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is doing nothing, even as a Pastor in the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), while Fulani herdsmen and Muslim bandits are killing Christians in the country.
Prophet Miracle, who anchored his message on sacrifice, stressed the need for sacrificial offerings by Christians, to actually open the doors of miracles and prosperity for them, and listed Noah, King Solomon and King of Edom in the Bible as people who provoked God’s quick response through their sacrificial gestures.
He said the opening of the church’s satellite parish on September 4, 2022 will be preceded by rallies, beginning from today at Rumuokoro and Rumuodomaya communities, and hinted that the church was poised to take Rumuodomaya by storm with earth-shaking miracles on Sunday, September 4.
In Dynamic Flame of Fire and Miracle Ministries, the lame walk, the sick are healed; the blind see; the afflicted are delivered, demons are destroyed; and the barren become pregnant.

Residents Embrace MNCH Week Services In PH

Published

Antenatal care and immunization services recorded high patronage during the just-concluded Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (MNCH) Week as residents in various communities across Port Harcourt took advantage of the free healthcare interventions.
The exercise, which was aimed at improving maternal and child well-being, attracted women, caregivers and children to different health facilities where a range of free healthcare services were provided.
Findings from selected health centres visited during the exercise showed encouraging participation by beneficiaries despite a few operational challenges experienced by health workers.
At Ozuboko Health Centre, the doctor in charge, Dr. Flag Amachree, said the facility recorded a good turnout throughout the exercise.
 The Tide  gathered that the team of immunization officers embarked on outreach immunization activities to schools to ensure that more children benefited from the programme.
She, however, identified inadequate supplies of deworming tablets as a challenge, noting that available stocks were being carefully managed to meet demands.
One of the beneficiaries, Emmanuella Edwin, who visited the facility for antenatal registration, expressed satisfaction with the services provided by the health workers.
She commended the staff for their dedication, professionalism and friendly disposition, adding that the registration process was stress-free and without any major challenge.
Similarly, Mrs. Esther Abbey said she registered for the free medical services offered during the healthcare week and described the process as smooth and simple.
She added that the programme also created an avenue for her daughter to benefit from immunization services through arrangements by her school.
Another beneficiary, Mrs. Philomena Ezekiel, said she was unable to access the service for her children after she was informed that a National Identification Number (NIN) was required before the test could be carried out.
At Amadi Health Centre, the Medical Officer in charge, Dr. Ebere Ikonwa, attributed the low turnout recorded at the facility to inadequate community mobilization, noting that no town crier was assigned to create awareness.
Despite the situation, she said the facility carried out outreach immunization services successfully and recorded significant patronage in antenatal care and immunization services.
