Canon Emeka Nwabia, one of the invited clergies at the recent Easter programmes that is ongoing at Nkpor New Auto Spare Parts Thursday charged traders to shun cultism, barbaric and other forms of maltreatment towards their fellow traders, so that God in his infinite mercy would forgive their sins.
Rev.Canon Nwabia who gave this charge during their weekly prayer at the market prayer ground also gave instances on the need for them to amend their ways and seek Christ as their personal Lord and Saviour stated that “I am born again today, not because I am poor but because i had tested those lifestyles but sees nothing in them.
In his sermon from the gospel of St luk chapter 10 verse 30, which was about a man traveling from Jerusalem to Jericho and was attacked by robbers who beat him half dead.
He reiterated that one can surpass all challenges, obstacles from relations, friends, business partners who are on your ways and in the positions to help but couldn’t, due to wickedness and selfishness only when you are a genuine born again.
The programmes which are being hosted by the New Parts Evangelical Team with theme” Calvary Experience ” are dated 7,21, 28 March and 4 April which are been done during the market weekly prayers.
The Chairman of the market Chief Obiora Ofoleh(Award) after the prayers unveiled temporal dual urinal system (Men and Women) which he provided for traders in D Line and other lines around them which was as a result of complaints from the traders from D line that the normal traders toilet facilities are far from their shops.
On unveiling the temporal urinal system, the Chairman said that those around the D-Line are free to use it, in addition to the existing toilet facilities with about 20 urinal basins in the market and promised to erect toilets for those in D line in no distance time.
According to him” I did this in line with the state government aim of a clean, liveable and prosperous anambra state and to ensure that the just desilted drainages are not messed up with urine, also because by the time somebody from D line will reach the toilet facilities, it will take some time, so we decided to erect a temporal one and warned that they are for urine alone not for detection.
One of the market stakeholders Chief Festus Okonkwo in his prayer for the unveiling of the temporary urinal system prayed God to bless the traders and the executives of the market
