Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State has urged the 300 Christian pilgrims from the state to the Holy Land of Israel and Jordan to pray fervently for the state and the incoming administration of Dr. Peter Ndubuisi Mbah.
The pilgrims were sponsored by the Governor Ugwuanyi-led administration.
Governor Ugwuanyi, who spoke when he saw off the pilgrims at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu, also urged them to be decorous while in the Holy Land and focus on experiencing the teachings in the Bible during and after the life of Jesus Christ.
The Governor pointed out that his administration since its inauguration in 2015 handed over Enugu State to the hands of God, disclosing that “God in His infinite mercy guided the administration and Enugu till date remains the most peaceful state in the country.â€
