Pastor Kumuyi Predicts Economic Rebound In Ebonyi

A renowned  preacher and the General Superintendent of Deeper Life Christian Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, has declared that the wealth hidden in the land of Ebonyi State  would henceforth  flow out for the economic well-being  of the people.

Kumuyi, who was in Abakaliki for a one-day Bible Study/ prayer programme organised by  the church, on Monday described Ebonyi  as a state bestowed with abundant natural resources.   

He admonished the people of the state to refrain from sin  in order to overcome their  economic challenges as it is only through this way that the blessings of God will be made manifest to  them.

The cleric, according to a statement by Umahi's Chief Press Secretary, Emma Anya, offered special prayers   for  the governor  and his family, the  state Executive Council  members and the entire state. 

Earlier,  Governor Umahi had described   Kumuyi's visit   as a huge  blessing to the people of the  state.

He said, "By your coming here sir, our suffering has ended.  I thank God Almighty who brought you at a  time we needed you most. 

"We don't have much to say but we want you to know that we are  very expectant. We have faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.  The Bible tells us that when God calls a man, he enables him. And we are confident  that  you are going to  bring  huge blessing to each and every one of us.

"I know that our state is going to be richly blessed through you."

The  event was attended also by the wife of the governor, Rachel Umahi;   Deputy Governor Kelechi Igwe;  Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Francis Nwifuru; members of the State Executive Council and other top government functionaries.
