It would be recall that The Story, had published that the Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori had appointed the Spiritual Leader of Okpe Kingdom, Archbishop Godday Iboyi as member of the state’s Christian Pilgrims Welfare Board.
At the time of publishing this report, the State government was yet to officially react to Archbishop Iboyi’s rejection of the appointment.
His state reads:
MY ATTENTION HAS BEEN DRAWN TO A PUBLICATION FLYING ROUND ON THE SOCIAL MEDIA THAT I HAVE BEEN APPOINTED AS A MEMBER OF DELTA STATE CHRISTIAN PILGRIM AND WELFARE BOARD, WHICH WAS WITHOUT MY CONSENT.
I’M USING THIS MEDIUM TO INFORM WHOSEVER MADE SUCH INSULTING APPOINTMENT THAT I’M NOT INTERESTED AND IT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED REJECTED.
THE GENERAL PUBLIC SHOULD PLEASE TAKE NOTE!
THANK YOU,
ARCHBISHOP IBOYI GODDAY
(THE SPIRITUAL LEADER OF OKPE KINGDOM).
