… Interacts With Ekiti Journalists
By Olarewaju Falayi
The Brotherhood of the Blood and Stars Church, founded by the Sole Spiritual Head of the Universe, popularly known as Olumba Olumba Obu has arrived Ekiti State for a three days crusade targeted at evangelising more souls.
Arriving Ado Ekiti, the Ekiti State Capital, the team led by the International Chairman, Archbishop David Irefin, while addressing Journalists at the State Secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, said, they have made NUJ their first point of call, believing that Journalists are vital to the purpose of their coming to Ekiti at projecting their mission.
Describing the Church as a brotherhood of the blood and star of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Archbishop noted that the misconception about Jesus Christ and Olumba Olumba prompted them to embark on evangelical mission in the State to preach and spread the gospel of Olumba Olumba.
Professor Irefin in his clarification about the misconception, explained that brotherhood means oneness which he said was the reason the Olumba Olumba couldn’t belong to any religion association.
“The International Missionary Crusaders fellowship of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star converged in Ekiti State for a week long evangelism work, that would attract members from the 12 formations that made up the nation”, Irefin revealed.
Speaking further, Irefin who is also a Professor stated that the 3-day evangelism work which started this Thursday would end on Sunday morning and that they will be visiting some villages and towns including institutions in the State for house to house evangelism.
In his words, “some of the programmes lined up for the week include courtesy visits to many dignitaries in the State including, traditional rulers, educational institutions, administrators and the political leaders”.
Other activities include humanitarian services, fasting and prayers and evangelical outreach among others, the Chairman added.
Debunking the rumour about the passage of their leader, His Holiness, Olumba Olumba, who many believe he is no more, Irefin said “he is very much alive and that he is currently in Calabar, the Cross Rivers Capital”.
Speaking on the security Challenges ravaging some parts of the country, Professor Irefin said that “Olumba Olumba has the blueprints to all the problems facing the country, particularly economic and insecurity but expects people to come to him first having said that Nigeria needs to be returned to the old National Anthem and the former 12 states that made the federation”.
Noting that, even before Tinubu emerged as the President of the Country that, Olumba Olumba had expressed optimism that the Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), would become the next President of Nigeria and that it came to pass as predicted.
In his remarks, the Chairman, Nigeria Union of Journalists, Ekiti State Council, Comrade Rotimi Ojomoyela assured them, the readiness of journalists in the State to give them needed support as requested to make their mission to the State a successful one.
Other members of the team include; Bishop E. N. Igbeke, Posted Priest, SCS, Ayisi Daniel, C. A. Michael Adoh, E.N. D. Paul Tayo, D.V. Ogagbe Anthony and Bishop Peter Olowu.
