The Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, BCS, is set to celebrate the silver jubilee of Leader Olumba Olumba Obu’s physical coronation as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
A spokesperson for the BCS, Dr Amah Williams, who spoke to journalists on Wednesday in Calabar at a news conference, said that the celebration will be a universal event, marking 25 years of His Holiness Olumba Olumba Obu’s reign as the King of Kings.
He said that the event will feature series of spiritually enriching activities, including a flag-off ceremony, medical outreach and humanitarian activities, starting from April 13 to 19, 2026.
Obu called on all Nigerians to live in unity and peace, saying, “It is meaningless to create boundaries between believers in the name of church.
“The time for the unity of the body of Christ is now, and the time of doubt and deceit has come to an end.”
He stressed that the celebration will also feature the consecration of bishops-elect and archbishops, and the unveiling of BCS Germany’s 40th-anniversary celebration.
Leader Obu declared that Nigeria one country that is loved by God, adding that the glory of Jerusalem has moved to the country, urging leaders to serve with justice and compassion and warned against oppression of the down trodden by the rich so as not to suffer the wrath of God.
He was quoted as saying, “No one should fan the embers of disunity neither should anyone perpetrate violence; all ethnic nationalities should live together in brotherhood, knowing that we are all children of the same father.”
The silver jubilee celebration would have thousands of worshippers, including several dignitaries from different continents of the world, including the king of Cape Coast, Ghana, His Royal Majesty Nana Osabarimba in attendance.
