James Ibori’s Survival Thanksgiving Service Following Prison Ordeal.

It was an electrifying atmosphere, in Oghara on sunday at the Baptist Church, when Chief James Ibori came to church for thanksgiving to God for rescuing him from the jaw and valley of death.

He thanked God profusely, for according to him, when he saw what fellow men planned for him, he took off and only was able to change his wrapper on the waters.

Arch Bishop Awomakpa held the congregation spell bound and tears flowed freely, when he recounted his visit to Ibori in prison.

Chief Ibori had told him, “when a lion is caught in a trap, there is nothing to fear for it will surely get out.

Tell my people I will be back”. We have joined and continue to join Chief Ibori to thank God. If God were not with him, today would have been for sorrowing. But, “to God be the glory, great things he has done.
