144 virgins from the Olumba Obu`s
fold are warming up to organize a lavish banquet for their father in the lord,
Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, to mark his birthday which comes up in November.
Speaking to journalists on the theme
for this year`s birthday activity, which a close source to Olumba Obu, said
would be centered on “World Peace” at the Headquarters of the Brotherhood of
the Cross and Star in Calabar.
Chairman Planning Committee, Dr.
Goodnews Brownson, said that this year father’s birthday celebration is earmarked
to impact much on the less privileged like orphans and prison inmates, and award
scholarships to indigent and intelligent students to pursue undergraduate
programmes at the nation`s tertiary institutions.
Brother Goodnews maintained that
Obu`s birthday marking would attract dignitaries from the Nigeria`s entertainment
industry like Nollywood stars, captains of industries, business tycoons,
academic icons and religious adherents from various denominations.
According to him, top on the agenda
would be welfare visitations which had been packaged to bring succour to under
privileged people, adding that Olumba would use the opportunity to consolidate
on his support to orphanages and prisons, including scholarship awards to
indigent people.
The Planning Committee Chairman
enumerated Obu`s strides to include establishment of orphanage called Mother
Theresa`s Home (The Redeemed Home) where he is catering for over one hundred
children and Brotherhood colleges in Nigeria including some economic ventures
to support them.
Dr. Goodnews maintained that the
event will create a platform for friends and associates of Olumba Obu to dine
with the father.
