He recounted how he used to represent the Christian Divine Church in competitive Bible quizzes, often emerging victorious and bringing honor to the local assembly.”I am a son of this house,” the Paramount Chief remarked. “The values and the scriptures I learned here as a young man shaped the leader I am today. Winning those Bible quizzes wasn’t just about the prizes; it was about building a foundation in faith.”
