Bishop of Nnewi Anglican Diocese, Right Reverend Ndubisi Obi, has pledged the commitment of the church in ensuring that good morals are instilled in school children, despite interruptions in academic calendar, due to COVID-19 pandemic.
He said with the establishment of Diocesan Moral Instructions Committee, the Diocese is poised to assist government with needed
manpower to achieve the objective in public, private and mission-owned
schools in the area.
The Prelate, who disclosed this at a media parley ahead of the Nnewi Anglican Diocesan Synod tagged “Uruagu 2020”, said though the COVID-19 pandemic has remained a disturbing reality, the Diocese leverages online teaching and learning to ensure that her academic programmese are on course.
While advocating strict compliance with COVID-19 protocols, Bishop Obi called on the people to seek divine solution in ending the pandemic.
He said the synod, holding between Wednesdays 9th to Sunday 13th September, 2020, will provide opportunities to mobilise supports for government’s objectives in education, health and agricultural sectors of the economy, pointing out that agriculture is the way to go presently.
