I wish to sincerely congratulate my dear elder brother, Pastor Ituah Ighodalo, as he marks his 63rd birthday anniversary today. His visionary leadership at Trinity House Church has been a beacon of hope, guiding those around him towards spiritual growth, and enlightenment.
Beyond the pulpit, his commitment to philanthropy and advocacy for good governance continues to yield positive changes in society.
On this special day, it's my prayer that God blesses him with more healthy and fruitful years ahead, renewed strength and endless joy, as he continues to impact on more lives positively.
Happy Birthday, Pastor Ituah Ighodalo! -PO

I remain concerned about our borrowings, considering their galloping rate over the years, and its concomitant effects on the economy. More worrisome is the fact that there has been no corresponding visible usage or investments as required by the law,
to show their impact on the nation’s development. At the end of the second quarter, Q2, of 2023, our debt stood at N87.9 trillion, which was very disturbing to us, because we were at a loss as to what we did with the huge debt, especially the over N23 trillion ways and
means borrowed by the last administration, which for me, would have been the end of borrowing without any visible and corresponding investment and benefit to the nation. But sadly and more worrisome is the fact that between the end of the third quarter, Q3, and
After my return visit to Tungan Madaki village in Abuja earlier in the day, to fulfill the promise I made during the 2024 World Sick Week, I flew to Owerri, Imo state capital from where I traveled to Ntigha in Isiala Ngwa, Abia State.
I was joined by my dear brother, and Governor of Abia State, Alex Otti, to honour Hon Ginger Obinna Onwusibe, member representing Isiala Ngwa South/Isiala Ngwa North at the Federal House of Representatives at his Thanksgiving Service.
While we rejoiced and thanked God with Hon Ginger for his electoral victory, I leveraged the opportunity to remind him, and all of us political leaders, that all power comes from God and we, the political leaders, must use such God-given Grace to serve the people.
Today, March 30, 2024, I made a return visit to Tungan Madaki village in Abuja to fulfill a promise I made during the 2024 World Sick Week last month.
I visited Tungan Madaki Primary Healthcare Centre in Abuja as part of my nationwide tour during which I pledged the sum of 2 million Naira to support the upgrading of the facility.
My decision to provide this financial assistance is deeply rooted in my firsthand observation of the dire conditions within the facility when I visited. It has become evident that urgent reforms are needed to address the deteriorating state of our healthcare infrastructure,
I join the global community of Christians, especially Christians in Nigeria, in celebrating Easter - the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. This great occasion brings to an end the Christian Lenten season of fasting, prayers, and almsgiving and
ushers us into the season of glory and victory over death. For us in Nigeria, this very significant celebration holds vital promises of victory over our present myriads of challenges and travails, if we do not despair.
Our dear nation has continued to stagger under the heavy weight of high insecurity, soaring hunger and poverty, ballooning debts, galloping inflation, and mindless corruption that have pervaded every part of our national life.
I join other well-meaning Nigerians in congratulating the Chairman of Air Peace, Allen Onyema, and his entire team at Air Peace Ltd, as they commence their direct flights to London, United Kingdom.
Their inaugural flight from Lagos to Gatwick Airport in London is scheduled for midnight, 12:10 am on 30th March 2024, just a few hours from now. This feat, as achieved by Air Peace, not only, arguably, offers unbeatable fares to Nigerian travelers,
but also helps us save the much-needed foreign exchange in the country. This will further create jobs for our people and contribute immensely to our economic growth.
It is saddening how cheap life has become in this country today. It is now a daily occurrence to read reports of our fellow Nigerians who lose their lives while struggling for basic food to eat.
Just 3 days ago, I lamented the disheartening occurrence involving some of our children at Nasarawa State University who lost their lives in a stampede while hustling for government provided food.
Yesterday, another four people have also reportedly lost their lives in a stampede during an almsgiving zakat exercise for the poor in Bauchi State. These regular occurrences of stampede and struggle for food only reflect the depth of hunger and starvation in the country.
