The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) , Living Spring Model Parish, yesterday inaugurated Bayo Adeyemo Street in Oke Ira, Ogba, Lagos State.
The Provincial Pastor of Lagos Province 2, Pastor Yemi Lebi, said the gesture was inline with the church’s vision in giving back to the society.
His words: “We believe in giving back to the society where our church is located. We thank God for the completed project and we are also grateful to the community and those who supported in making the project a reality.”
Pastor-in-charge Femi Onasanwo said the bad state of the road brought about the need to fix it. “Part of the vision of the church is to win souls and double attendance. We saw the need to fix the road because prior to now, many of our invitees do not come and and those who come do not want to come back. We used interlocking stones because we wanted a quality job which would last generations. We spent about N6 million for the about 750 square metres road. I don’t know how God raised the money but I know He did it.”
He urged residents and road users to maintain the road and ensure it is kept clean.

Amaechi made the disclosure at the Future Awards Africa held at the Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos last Saturday. He said that he would have done otherwise by staying in PDP and fight for the change, instead, there was a need to cross over to APC because of his belief in President Muhammadu Buhari. “I moved from PDP to APC because I am tired of what is happening in the party, I have the option to stay because of my position as the Chairman of the Governors then. “I can use my position to fight them (PDP) and get what I want because I believe Nigeria was not going in the right direction by then. “My attention and belief shifted to Buhari which was the viable alternative, I believe in the change mantra because it is the only way to improve on what is on ground. “He has not...
