“I can say for sure that he is a kind man, a humble, humane and compassionate person and that explains this gesture to inmates in Onitsha.
“Personally, I was moved by his show of concern, love and that’s a great lesson to all of us as Indigenes of Anambra.
“We must practice love, kindness and empathy. It is good Mr Governor is showing the right example with his actions, it is left for us to learn and implement.” He told NewdayReporters.
The Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, had over the weekend pledged support for the prison ministry of the Archbishop of Onitsha, Most Rev. Valerian Okeke.
Soludo made the pledge during the birthday mass for the Archbishop, who marked his 70th birthday.
