At the residence of the late Apostle Uwah (Rtd) in Atan Offot, Uyo, he paid glowing tributes to the deceased who had served as an Apostle for 30 years. He said his soul is at home with the Lord and assured the wife and children that they are not alone in their moment of travail.
At Afaha Essang, Abak the home of late Apostle Namse (Rtd) he prayed for the sweet repose of the soul of the late Apostle. In his remarks: “our Apostle is better where he is now, thanks be to God for releasing him for the burdens of the flesh”. He urged the family to be still and know that the Lord is God. Meanwhile, funeral service is slated for Thursday 18th May, 2017 at the deceased compound at Afaha Essang.
