“Why I donated a car to St Mary’s Church.” Chief Arthur Obieze.
2 min readProminent Akalite and a Lagos based business man, High Chief Arthur Obieze has explained why he and his family donated a car to St Mary’s Catholic Church Umuaka. High Chief Obieze in a recorded message he sent to Umuaka Times explained that as a Lagos based businessman, he has been contributing a lot of resources to the Catholic Church in Lagos where he lives while his first church where he was born and baptized had received just a little from him. For that reason, Chief Obieze according to his message, decided to be focusing on St Mary’s Catholic Church which he described as his root because charity begins at home.
On another note, Chief Obieze further explained that the donation was also a part of his ways of appreciating what God has been doing for him and other Akalites both in Nigeria and outside. He used the opportunity and urged other people to contribute for the development of the work of God and Umuaka community in general.
On his final note, he thanked Umuaka Times for its journalistic and humanitarian activities in and outside Umuaka and prayed God to continue to bless Umuaka people in their different endeavours across the world.
The car gift from Chief Arthur Obieze was presented to St Mary’s Catholic Church Umuaka last week Sunday being December 26th 2021. High Chief Arthur Obieze is the Nwanyere Ugo 1 of Akah Ancient Kingdom, Olowo Maye of Ikaleland and the Okwadike 1 Ezikeukwu Uba Umuaka.
