The air, thick with the fragrance of faith and fellowship, hummed with the unexpected harmony between two prominent figures of Anambra politics: Senator Chris Ngige and his former godfather, Chief Chris Uba.

Their presence at the Holy Trinity Cathedral Church, a beacon of hope in Orumba North Local Government Area, was not just a coincidence, but a testament to a burgeoning peace.

The occasion, a magnificent tapestry woven with threads of thanksgiving, a silver jubilee marriage celebration, and a golden age birthday, all honouring the union of Hon. Okwudili Ezenwankwo and his beloved wife, Lolo Obiageli, provided the perfect backdrop for this political rapprochement.

The event commenced with a sacred service presided over by His Eminence, Peter Ebere Cardinal Okpalaeke, Bishop of Ekwulobia Catholic Diocese, whose sermon resonated with the spirit of reconciliation that permeated the air.

His Eminence, in his profoundly insightful homily, underscored the crucial role of familial harmony in fostering a healthy society, urging a return to traditional values and the importance of agriculture as a cornerstone of self-sufficiency.

His words, imbued with both spiritual wisdom and practical counsel, resonated deeply within the hearts of the congregation.
