Abuja: Founder of Revival House of Glory International Church (RHOGIC), Goodheart Ekwueme, on Sunday, lauded the Federal Government’s declaration of a state of emergency in the country’s security situation.
Ekwueme said the government needed to tackle insecurity through multiple approaches, adding that declaring a state of emergency might be just one step.
He said this in Abuja on the occasion of his 40 years in the ministry.
According to him, declaring a state of emergency in security situations in the country is just a step; there is much more to it.
“It is not only one thing that will solve the problem, but the government also needs multiple approaches, and I want to believe that they will and are working behind the scenes to tackle the situation from all angles.
“Without security in the country, it will be difficult for the nation to grow and improve its economy, and for the people to have a peaceful environment to work in.”
The Cleric, who expressed joy and satisfaction with what he had achieved over the last 40 years in ministry, said the celebration allowed him to dream again and see what God had in store for him, adding that he knew there was much more ahead.
“I feel very excited to be 40 years in Christ and in active ministry and to be alive, well and strong to still be able to dream again and see what God has in stock, and I know that there is much more ahead,” he said.
In a goodwill message, a former presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), and a friend to the celebrant, Mr Dumebi Kachikwu, described the Cleric as a man of wisdom who had impacted his generation.
Kachikwu, who was also the chief launcher of the occasion, said Ekwueme typified his name, adding that his good deeds should be emulated.
He also called on all Nigerians to support the government’s effort in the fight against terrorism.
According to him, the important thing is for all Nigerians to join in the fight to end terrorism in the country.
One of the highlights of the occasion was the inauguration of the Goodheart Ekwueme Ministry International (GEMI).
GEMI is dedicated to mentorship, soul-winning, and support for vulnerable groups across communities.
