Warri—The President of God’s Kingdom Society, GKS, Church of the Living God, Godwin Ifeacho, has decried the collapse of social support system of  being one’s neighbour’s keeper in African society, blaming it on the plethora of woes confronting the continent.

According to him, this value system that was an integral part of the socio-economic reality of Africans had collapsed into individualism.

Speaking in Warri, Delta State, Ifeacho expressed the belief that the effects of this collapse were unpaid salaries, loss of jobs, inability to pay back loans or foot basic bills, increase in suicide rates, conflicts and post-conflict tension, “that have  turned the continent to a metaphor for disease, poverty, unemployment, corruption mismanagement and bad governance.”

Speaking during the church’s Freedom Day Divine Service at the headquarters, in Salem City, in commemoration of the birth of Christ in October, Ifeacho noted that the solution to the challenges was not in any miracle worker or government, but in God.

Also, during the same Freedom Day celebration by the Lagos zone of GKS, the General Secretary, Michael Ekiseowei, said “any government, leader or prophet who says he or she has the solution to the problem facing the world is a deceiver.”

Speaking at the event held at GKS church in Olodi-Apapa, Lagos,  Ekiseowei said Nigerians must brace up for tougher times, except they sought the only true solution, Christ, which the church preached.
