NGO partners with Church to combat crime
The Atmosphere of
Love Chaplaincy (ALC), a Non Governmental Organisation (NGO) and
Founder of Praise Land Royal Springs International Church, Apostle
Chinedum Ejiofor, have joined forces to support government’s efforts in
the fight against crime and crimiÂnality the Federal Capital TerÂritory
(FCT).
Commandant
General of the Chaplaincy, Prince DesÂmond Ononuju, gave the indiÂcation
during the decoration of Apostle Ejiofor as one of the national patrons
of ALC at his Church auditorium in IkÂwa-Zuba, Gwagwalada Area Council
of FCT.
According to him,
the recÂognition of the Church GenÂeral Overseer was to spur him in
doing more for the less privileged individuals across the FCT and the
country in general.
Ononuju described
the positive contributions of the cleric to better the lives of the
poor masses as the best way to reducing crime rate in the society.
He, therefore,
urged influÂential Nigerians, Church and opinion leaders to emulate him
in complementing the effort of government in job creation.
According to him,
if people are provided with the enabling environment to learn skills
that could make them earn a living and become self reliant, it would
curb the challenges currently threatening the seÂcurity and peace of
Nigeria.
Speaking after
his decoraÂtion alongside his wife, the cleric, Apostle Chinedum
EjioÂfor, said that the task of buildÂing a virile Nigeria should be the
concern of churches and philanthropists.
He explained that
most of the sickness and other menace being heard across the country
where avoidable, if the people are given the needed support.
Apostle Ejiofor
urged church leaders, to, rather than being selfish trying to accumulate
wealth for themselves, take the plight of their members and indeed the
masses more seriÂous, by making necessary proÂvision that could be
providing jobs and financial assistance to both members as well as none
members.-The Authority
