SALVATION MINISTRIES: CELEBRATING FAITH, VISION AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF GOD’S WORK Following several meetings and engagements in Abuja yesterday, I travelled to Lagos in the evening to continue with additional meetings. Early this morning, I journeyed from Lagos to Port Harcourt, Rivers State, to attend the dedication service for the newly completed Global Headquarters and Cathedral of Salvation Ministries, under the leadership of Senior Pastor David Ibiyeomie, a respected man of God and prominent Christian leader. The ceremony was a significant celebration of faith, worship and gratitude. I was especially struck by the vision, magnitude and architectural excellence of the new cathedral, which can accommodate more than 100,000 worshippers. This achievement represents a major milestone for the ministry and reflects the dedication, commitment and perseverance necessary to realise such an ambitious vision. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Pastor David Ibiyeomie, his wife and the entire team on this outstanding accomplishment. I also commend the Salvation Ministries family for its steadfast commitment to spreading the Gospel of Christ. -PO

BAYELSA STATE: WARM CONGRATULATIONS TO SENATOR HENRY SERIAKE DICKSON Yesterday, 30th October 2026, I travelled from Enugu to Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, to attend the homecoming ceremony honouring my dear brother and our Party’s National Leader, His Excellency, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, while continuing our engagement with the people. During the grand event, I reminded the good people of Bayelsa State that, after more than three years in office, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has not considered it appropriate to spend even one night in Bayelsa State, despite spending over 260 days abroad. I assured our numerous supporters and the people of Bayelsa State that this will not happen under my leadership. I will visit Bayelsa to hear directly from our people and respond to their concerns. In Bayelsa, I pledged that we would begin efforts to upgrade ports throughout the Niger Delta, including those in Warri, Port Harcourt, and Calabar. We will also begin construction of the long-delayed Ibaka seaport in Akwa Ibom State and establish a new port in Bayelsa State to serve our riverine communities and the broader Niger Delta more effectively. I reaffirmed our commitment to unite and secure the country, fight corruption, and make substantial investments in healthcare and education while lifting our people out of poverty. The visit concluded with my joining Senator Seriake Dickson, for a traditional canoe war game and boat regatta in his hometown of Toru-Orua, Sagbama Local Government Area. I congratulate my dear brother, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, on his successful return home. I appreciate our party’s national and state leadership, members as well as the good people of Bayelsa for good organisation, warm reception and successful event. A New Nigeria is POssible, and Nigeria will be OK!. -PO
