The Vice President who delivered a lecture entitled “The Christian, Politics and Nation Building,” at the event, said, “The late Archbishop Benson Idahosa was a role model to many Christians and church founders within and outside the country.”
He saluted the Christian virtues of the current overseer of the church, the Mrs Margaret Idahosa, and said “she is a woman of history, destiny and the future, who has been able to crack the glass ceiling in the gospel world that is dominated by male preachers and whose messages have changed the destinies of many.”
Archbishop Idahosa expressed her appreciation to the Vice president for gracing the occasion and said that the mercy of God had kept the church thus far.
She further said that the church is living the legacies of the founder which include, evangelism, greater works and risk-taking, adding that God is not gender specific as he has chosen her to preach the gospel in a world full of male preachers.
She listed the achievements of the Church to include establishing over 100 chapters of the Word of Faith schools, three branches of Faith Mediplex Hospitals and Golden Age Centre for old people amongst others.
