    On Saturday, the Catholic Diocese of Warri urged Delta politicians to respect sacred lines as they campaigned.

    The Very Rev. Fr. Mark Ikeke, Parish Priest of St. Jude’s Catholic Church in Effurun, Delta, made the appeal in a statement issued in Warri.

    The church was responding to rumors that All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege is not a Christian.

    Omo-Agege, according to Ikeke, is not only a Christian, but a baptized, practicing, and dedicated member of the Church.

    “Our attention has been drawn to a rumour that one of our parishioners, Sen. Omo-Agege, the Deputy President of the Senate is not a Christian.

    “For the avoidance of doubt, Sen. Omo-Agege is a baptised, practicing and dedicated member of the Church.

    “He is a member of and a communicant in St. Jude’s Catholic Church, Government Reservation Area, Effurun in Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta,” Ikeke said.

    He added that the church recognises that this is an election season and encourages political leaders and their supporters to strive to uphold decorum, respect sacred lines and show love to all in their campaigns.

    According to him, the sole purpose of the press statement is to encourage decorum and uphold the truth regarding Sen. Omo-Agege’s religious identity.

    “We hope and pray that our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ should thoroughly guide our actions and inactions,’’ he added.
