General Overseer (GO) of Omega Power Ministries (OPM.), Chibuzor Chinyere, has been inducted into the Nigerian Books of Records Hall of Fame and also decorated with Fellowship Award by the Supreme Council, Nigerian Books of Record Research Centre, Abuja.
The event took place, yesterday, at the OPM’s International headquarters, Mbodo Aluu, Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Director-General of the Centre, Prof. David David, who performed the decoration, said the cleric was honoured in recognition of his untiring commitments to humanity and contribution to national development.
David said the Nigerian Books of Record Research Centre is the encyclopaedia of everything good about Nigeria and its citizens.
He said: “We decide to go on the good side of Nigerians; the positive sides of the contributions of Nigerians. We discovered that Nigerians are very good at celebrating the wrong people. So, we go after people who have credible records and to tell the world that there are Nigerians with credible records to celebrate despite the global poor image…
“I see what Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere is doing, still a Nigerian, and there are so many Apostle Chinyere on the streets of Lagos, Port Harcourt and other parts of the country. With the things he is doing, Nigerians need to believe in themselves, that it is not always about wrong records,though in every country, there are always the good and bad people. So, we want you to identify us by the content of our character as a person.”
Responding, the OPM general overseer said the honour bestowed on him would move him to do more in uplifting humanity with social services.
“I am highly elated, excited; I never expected this. I didn’t ask for the recognition, but being recognised by the government, I will really do more to humanity in this year 2023. A lot of things are on the way. Let us believe in God.”
The cleric said one important area to alleviate the sufferings of poor Nigerians would be to establish a free university.
