The Philanthropist, Chief Chika Emenike said he was led by his spirit as he woke up from bed in the morning to do a donation to the Anglican Churches in his community. “When I woke up this morning, I felt a strong urge to invite the two priests of the Anglican Church in my community and give them money to support their church building project.

“I have for some years observed that St. Pauls’s church project has remained uncompleted and I promised myself that after building the one I was involved then, that I will support them to finish up their church.

“Today when I woke up from sleep, I felt the need to fulfill my promise. I made inquiries and invited the priest of St. Paul and equally that of St. Silas to come to my house after their church service and now they are here.

“To St. Paul Anglican Church, I’ll be supporting the completion of your Church building project with the sum of N7 Million and will also support St. Silas to put up something befitting with the sum of N3 Millon.”

In his show of appreciation, Ven. Ben Chima Nwigwe of St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Uruala expressed surprise that a Catholic person will support the building project of an Anglican Church and said he never knew Chief Emenike from Adam, talkless of expecting any form of support from him and prayed for God’s continuous blessing upon his business and his household.

Chief Emenike had earlier stated that “whenever he is involved in doing the work of God, God blesses all aspects of my life, and as a result of the blessings of God upon my life, there is nothing that I will use to thank God that is enough. Money cannot buy God’s blessings. God owns me and everything I have belongs to God.”
