The Standing Committee of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion), comprising the House of Bishops, and delegates from the House of Clergy and the House of Laity, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit and the leadership of the Most Rev. Peter J. Akinola, Primate of All Nigeria, met at St. Andrew’s Diocesan Center, Nnewi, Anambra State between 26th and 29th March 2008. We are profoundly grateful to the Rt. Rev’d Godwin Okpala, the Bishop, Diocese of Nnewi, the Governor, His Excellency, Mr. Peter Obi, the Government of Anambra State, HRH, Igwe Kenneth Orizu, Igwe III of Nnewi, and the
good people of the Diocese of Nnewi, for the warm hospitality and generosity shown to us.
2. We were privileged to take part in the dedication of All Saints’ Anglican Church Parish,
Irefi – Oraifite (The City of Joy) Ekwusigo Local Government Area. This magnificent
edifice was made possible through the generosity of a single donor, Sir Emeka Ofor, who
was present to be honoured for his generosity. In his dedication sermon the Primate
reminded us that we can only enter into the House of the Lord when our hearts and hands
are made clean by the redemptive work of Christ. He also encouraged other benefactors
