The people of Imo State know that even though election is over, the constant struggle to rebuild the state is still ongoing.
The Catholic Archbishop of Owerri Ecclesiastical Province, His Grace, Dr. Anthony J. V. Obinna butressed this fact recently during a unction for members of the Catholic Women Organisation, CWO, at Maria Assumpta Cathedral, Owerri, where he noted that another Herod cannot be allowed in Imo State.
His words, “As we thank God for this wind of change, may God grant the Governor-elect humility because we don’t want another tyrant. Imo people must continue to pray for the state because the battle to fully recover and rebuild Imo is not yet over”
“winning or losing election in this part of the world is not everything”,
“the exercise however, brings joy on one hand and sadness on the other”.
“whether it is Herod, the tyrant and ruthless ruler of the Jews,who stopped at nothing to keep his throne, or Caiaphas the Jewish priest, who organised a plot to kill Jesus or Pontius Pilate, who presided at the trial of Jesus and gave the order for his crucifixion, we are all guilty.”
