The week-long Centenary celebration of the Eastern Nigeria Union Conference (ENUC) of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church has finally come to an end with an advice to the Governor of Abia State, Dr. Alex Otti, and his predecessor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu to put aside their political differences and work in the interest of the state.
This was according to the General Conference President of the church, Ted Wilson who spoke at the Enyimba Stadium in Aba, the commercial nerve of the state on Saturday during a church service to mark the end of the celebration.
Both leaders have had a frosty relationship with regards to the administration of Abia State.

It was further heightened when the Labour Party’s Alex Otti was declared winner of the March 18 governorship election in Abia, after which he set up a committee to recover assets belonging to the state government alleged to have been unlawfully taken away by officials of the Ikpeazu-led immediate past government.
The Adventist Church World Leader who reminded Otti and Ikpeazu that they were also brothers of the same faith noted that both of them could work to bring more progress to the state if they should put away their political differences and reconcile
“The former and current governors of Abia State are both Adventists. And to the two of you, my dear brothers, you are brothers in Christ.
“The two of you, working together under the power of the Holy Spirit, can bring about amazing forward progress and reconciliation to help the people of the great state of Abia.”
