Obi urged them not to rest on their oars but continue to work harder for the good of society, spiritual and temporal.
“I heartily congratulate you, Ven. Obiorah Uzochukwu on your election as the Bishop of Mbamili Diocese, Anglican Communion. I urge you to remain steadfast in your kingdom service, totally depending on God, the author and finisher of our faith.
“To the new President General-Elect of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Prof George Obiozor, I enjoin on you to draw from your wealth of experience as a diplomat to lead the Ohanaeze to greater heights. I have confidence in your ability to serve Ndigbo well on this position,” Obi said.
The former Governor of Anambra State called on them to avoid all forms of corruption, abuse of office, greed and self aggrandisement which has continued to destroy the Nigerian society. He urged them to use their new positions in life to touch more lives positively.
