Like you see him do today during service announcing palliative distribution and giving out cash to the widows in his congregation. We are on the lookout for individuals with enviable personality, who give back to society, and have also promoted peaceful co-existence among the people and Archbishop Idahosa passes all that bill,” Bankole explained.

“One of the responsibilities of the Universal Chaplain Corps and Rescue Mission is organizing prayer summits for nations of the world. When the military engages their professional training with arms to combat insurgency, insecurity, terrorism and banditry, we believe in using the spiritual warfare to engage too.

He is also expected to intercede through prayers for the leadership of our dear country Nigeria. His responsibility is also advisory,” Bankole remarked.
