Cardnal Michael, however, prayed for the new Bishops to excel in life through the gospel of Jesus Christ, as he said the new Bishops were anointed in order to move the gospel of Christ to the next level.

Also speaking, the retired judge of the FCT High Court of Justice, Hon. Balami thanked the leadership of the church for the honour done to him.
