“This is even coming at a time we are celebrating our Lord Jesus who gave himself for mankind on the cross of Calvary. So, there is nothing too big to give in support of one another this period. This is really our third outing and we will still do more to ensure that our people do not go hungry.

“Nigerians must also not lose hope because of this ravaging disease because very soon, just as it happened in Samaria when there was lockdown in the book of Second Kings Chapter 7, we are also coming out of this present moment into abundance.”

The deadly virus spread in the nation has been increasing exponentially since the first case was announced in March with numbers of confirmed cases now up to 373.
