Nwankwo Felicitates with Assemblies of God Church on Fathers’ Day Celebration
The Deputy Chief of Staff, office of the deputy governor, Hon. Barr. Chijioke Nwankwo, has extended warm felicitations to the Assemblies of God Church on the occasion of their annual Fathering Sunday celebration.
In his goodwill message, Hon. Nwankwo praised the enduring strength, compassion, and selfless sacrifices of fathers, highlighting their vital role in nurturing families and shaping society. He described fathers as the backbone of both homes and nations, urging them to lead lives of integrity, discipline, and godly virtue.
“The values and ethics instilled by fathers have a profound impact on whether a society progresses or declines,” he noted. “Truly progressive societies are those that draw daily inspiration from the Word of God.”
Speaking on the importance of godly leadership, Nwankwo attributed the ongoing transformation in Abia State — from infrastructure development to improvements in education and healthcare — to the visionary leadership of His Excellency, Dr. Alex Chioma Otti.
He described the Governor as a father figure whose commitment to good governance continues to yield tangible benefits for the people of the state.
Hon. Nwankwo called on all fathers to continually seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit and let the teachings of the Bible shape their lives and decisions. He emphasized that their role in raising responsible and morally upright children is critical to building a stronger and more prosperous future.
“To every father, grandfather, and father figure,” he added, “thank you for your unwavering dedication and for instilling godly values in the next generation. May God bless and strengthen you always.”
He concluded with a special message to the fathers of the Assemblies of God Church, commending their steadfast faith and commitment to their families and communities.
