“We acquired ambulances for our free hospital in Port Harcourt and decided to donate one to the state government because the fight against coronavirus is a fight for everybody.
“As we are praying against its spread, we should also be seen giving support.
“The donation which shall be permanent with the Rivers State government is part of the Church commitment towards assisting the masses in this trial period,” Chinyere said.
According to him, OPM will not relent on its effort to support the government in whatever measures within its reach to fight the satanic epidemic that can sweep the earth of its inhabitants.
The General Overseer who operates a free Specialist Hospital in Rivers State said the ambulance donated to the state was acquired from the tithes and offerings of Church members.
