Pastor Kumuyi Prays For Gov. Otti, Says, ‘God Has Set You Up To Be A Star’ In Nigeria

Pastor W. F. Kumuyi, Founder and General Overseer of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, also known as Deeper Life Church, believes there is a bright light shining in Abia State.

Pastor Kumuyi, who has been in the state for about a week for a crusade titled “A Glorious Transformation Through Christ,” spoke on Tuesday during a working visit to Abia State Governor, Dr. Alex Otti, OFR, at his home in Nvosi, Isialangwa South Local Government Area.

The revered cleric, who arrived with his wife, Mummy Esther, praised the breath of fresh air and ongoing reformation in Abia State under Governor Otti over the last 11 months, particularly in the areas of road infrastructure, citizen welfare, and security, among other initiatives of the current administration.

He declared that Governor Otti’s exemplary leadership has elevated Abia to a position of pride among Nigeria’s progressive states, as well as in terms of economic development and growth.

“It has not even been a year since you became Governor, and your accomplishments are impressive. Even before I arrived, we had heard about Abia state’s progress and reforms. Apart from preaching, we have heard the state’s story from 2023 to the present.

“May the Lord continue to strengthen you and assist you in achieving all of your goals for the state, as evidenced by the state’s security, progress, and productivity.

“We pray to the Lord to keep you strong and healthy. We pray that this work will continue, and that others will see the bright light shining in our state, God’s Own State.

“God has set you up to be a star in our country, and you will remain a shining star,” Pastor Kumuyi, who will be 83 on June 6, prayed.

Governor Otti welcomed his august visitor, who was accompanied by other elders and senior church officers, and thanked Pastor Kumuyi for choosing Abia State as the venue for the crusade, which began last Thursday and is being held at the Aba Mega Mall.

Governor Otti expressed the government’s willingness to collaborate with the Deeper Christian Life Ministry to help the less fortunate in Abia and improve the well-being of its citizens.

He highlighted his administration’s accomplishments over the last 11 months, including the recent liquidation of a decade-long arrears owed to state pensioners by previous administrations.

The Governor recognised Pastor Kumuyi’s global good works through the ministry and pledged support for the Deeper Life Ministry and other churches’ charitable efforts.
