Rivers State Government hands over Ecumenical Centre to CAN

Governor Wike charges to CAN to use the centre to promote unity 

The Rivers State Government on Sunday  formally handed over the State Ecumenical Centre to the Christian Association of Nigeria  (CAN), after the church was commissioned and dedicated to God by the General Overseer of the Reedeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye. 

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike on behalf  of the State Government announced that henceforth the Ecumenical Centre belongs to the Rivers State Christian Association of Nigeria, saying the body will manage and run the facility. 

In confirmation  of the new ownership  of the structure, the governor declared that the certificate of occupancy for State Ecumenical Centre was prepared in the name of the Christian Association of Nigeria. 

The governor invited the General Overseer of the Reedeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, who made the presentation of the certificate of occupancy  to the Rivers State Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Archbishop Isaac Anyanasikike. 

Speaking  at the thanksgiving/commissioning  of the State Ecumenical Centre, Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike said the construction of the church was in fulfilment of the  promise he made to Christian leaders during the campaign. 

He charged the Christian leaders  to see the Ecumenical Centre  as a place that will foster unity amongst different denominations and not a centre that will engender  division. 

He said: “We promised to build a centre where people from different faiths will meet to worship God. This is a job  that we have paid 100percent”.

He urged Christians to unite under the banner of Christ, saying that Rivers is unapologetically  a Christian State.

Dedicating the Christian Ecumenical Centre , General Overseer of the Reedeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye commended  Governor Wike for doing what no other governor has done.

He prayed that the Ecumenical Centre  will become a centre of miracle where people will always find solutions  to their life challenges. 

The cleric stated that the Ecumenical Centre will attract progress and peace for Rivers State and her people. 

Intercessory prayers were said for Nigeria, the Church of Christ, Rivers at 50, the governor and his cabinet by the Archbishop of Niger Delta Province, Most Rev Ignatius Kattey, Most Rev Sunday Agwu and Pastor David Ibiyeomie .

A special golden jubilee prayer was said for Governor Wike and his wife by Pastor Enoch Adeboye. 

Chairman of the Rivers State Christian Association of Nigeria, Archbishop Isaac Anyanasikike said the State Ecumenical Centre will promote  friendship , love and refuge for the need.
