“I am still amazed to the glory of God Almighty at the level of passion and humility exhibited by our brother and father, Prince Ibe Ozoma toward the rehabilitation of the Institutions. I make bold to say that his choice to lead the work was from God and not from any man. God at any point in time will always appoint his own to do his work and that is what I have seen in Prince Ibe Ozoma leading this great work in Pilgrim Baptist Hospital. He is not a man of denomination, but a great man of God,” the Moderator stated.
