All is now set for the hosting of the Prelate, Methodist Church Nigeria, His Eminence, Dr. Samuel Kanu Uche (JP) and his wife, Nneoma Florence, by the Archdiocese of Lagos Mainland, as part of his farewell tour, as he rounds off his tenure as the head of Methodist Church Nigeria.
The week-long event will start from today and end on Sunday. The Prelate will tour the four federating dioceses that make up the Archdiocese, namely Diocese of Lagos Mainland, Diocese of Lagos Central, Diocese of Lagos West and Diocese of Lagos North.
The chief host, the Archbishop of Lagos Mainland, His Grace, Most Rev. Obafemi Adeleye, said Dr. Uche and his entourage would start his farewell tour today with a Eucharist Church service at Hoare’s Memorial Methodist Cathedral, Yaba by noon.
“During this week-long visit, His Eminence will celebrate some achievements of the Archdiocese with us such as the inauguration of the new science laboratory and block of classrooms at Methodist Girls’ High School, Yaba, among other events,” he said.
The Archdiocesan Lay President, Sir Benjamin Oshadiya, said: “Members of our Archdiocese are prepared to give our Prelate a befitting send-off, considering the activities lined up by the Archdiocese with the dioceses during this farewell tour.”
