The General Overseer of the Port Harcourt-based Omega Power Ministries, Chinyere Chibuzor, has cancelled this year’s Jesus Night of Coconut Convention of the church that would have held this month in Port Harcourt.
Chibuzor in a repeated media announcement said the programme was being called off because of the scourge of the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I know it’s a programme that brings people from all over the world both from outside Port Harcourt and it attracts so much crowd.
“With this third wave of COVID-19, which is sweeping all over the world, I would not want to risk the lives of people that are coming to the programme,” Chinyere said.
The Presidential Steering Committee on Covid-19 had listed Rivers as one of the states to take extra care to check the new wave of COVID-19.
