The Labour Party candidate for Bende Federal Constituency, Dr. Chimaobi Desmond Anyaso, has congratulated the District Superintendent, Rev. Dr. Henry Ochuba Emelike, and the entire membership and presbytery of the Umuahia Central Jerusalem District of Assemblies of God Nigeria on the successful hosting of the 2026 Mega Worship.

The Mega Worship, held on Sunday at the Assemblies of God Church, 5–8 Item Street, Umuahia, Abia State, brought together church leaders, government officials, political actors, ministers and members of the church for a time of worship, fellowship and spiritual reflection.

Dr. Anyaso, who was one of the Guests of Honour at the event, was represented by the Director-General of his Campaign Organization, Pastor Dike Okechukwu, and the Director of Media and Publicity, Hon. Promise Uzoma Okoro.

In his message, Dr. Anyaso congratulated Rev. Dr. Henry Ochuba Emelike and the entire district for the successful programme, describing the gathering as an important opportunity for the Church to strengthen its spiritual commitment and reflect on its responsibility to society.

He also commended the Guest Speaker, Rev. Dr. Chidi Okoroafor, for his message on spiritual revival and the need for the Church to return to its original position and mandate.

Dr. Anyaso said the Church has an important role to play in shaping society, particularly by promoting values of integrity, morality, compassion and responsible leadership. He stressed the need for Christians to be more deliberate about supporting leaders who can restore hope in governance and society.

In his welcome address, the District Superintendent, Rev. Dr. Henry Ochuba Emelike, welcomed the distinguished guests and worshippers to the annual Mega Worship, describing the gathering as a testament to God’s faithfulness despite the economic challenges confronting Nigerians.

Drawing from 2 Corinthians 4:8–9, Rev. Emelike noted that Christians may face difficulties and pressures but must remain resilient in their faith, stressing that the challenges facing individuals, churches and the nation should not lead to despair.

The District Superintendent specifically commended the administration of Governor Dr. Alex Chioma Otti, OFR, stating that the Governor’s foundation in faith had contributed to his determination to tackle corruption and promote good governance in Abia State. He consequently emphasised the need for greater investment in institutions that promote morality and godly values.

Speaking through his representatives, Dr. Anyaso appreciated the leadership of the Umuahia Central Jerusalem District for the invitation and commended the District Superintendent for his leadership and commitment to the growth of the Church.

He also called for continued prayers for his aspiration to represent Bende Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives in 2027, expressing confidence in the importance of prayer and divine guidance in the political journey.
