He observed that greed and corruption are destroying Nigeria.

He emphasised that such acts of greed and wickedness could make one to lose heaven, noting that the amount of money allegedly spent on plastics seats by the leadership of the NDDC was almost the amount which Awka Diocese had utilised in the ongoing Peter University project.

The Bishop regretted that while the poor masses are suffering due to difficulties, people in leadership positions resorted to rob the country and her xtates of public funds that ought to be used for public good.

He flayed government officials and other public office holders over their involvement in what he termed the culture of contract fraud and other corrupt practices, which, according to him, had robbed communities and various regions of Nigeria their needed development.

While pointing out that wisdom and rationality were what differentiated human beings from animals, he prayed God to endow all with the grace to make the right choices in life.

Hd urged Nigerians to desist from selfish lifestyle, but make proper use of their abilities for their own good and that of others.
