The President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Revd. Samson Ayokunle, has described Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma, as ‘miracle governor’.
He stated this Friday when he delivered his homily at the Imo Prayer Summit for Peace, held at Heroes Square in Owerri.
According to the cleric, Uzodinma emerged as a result of “God’s decision” and as such, any campaign against him will fail.
Ayokunle assured the governor that the security challenges that enveloped the state in recent times were not unique.
He stated that storms would definitely come at a point in the life of every individual or entity, stressing that “the part way to lasting peace, when a situation like this arises, what do we do, always prepare to step up to the high ground under the guidance of God”.

The CAN President said, “Let me tell you this: Before you take any step or action, hear the voice of God, and you don’t reject the voice of God. I say this because you are a miracle governor. Your coming as governor was as a result of God’s decision.
“So, you are a miracle governor. That is why any step taken against you will be subdued because your coming as governor can only be possible by God.
“For you to continue to stand you have to stand strong. Calling on God always is a part way to victory. Everybody must eschew violence. Everybody in Imo State should join hands together to say no to violence.”
Reacting, Uzodinma expressed gratitude to God for dousing tensions that had turned the state into a “theatre of war” in recent months.
He said he cried to God to put an end to the menace and he listened.
