UMUNNEM,IT'S ANOTHER LENTEN SEASON- SOLUDO. (PHOTO).#PRESS RELEASE.

Ụmụnnem, it's another Lenten season. For me, it can only be divine that this period coincides with our transitioning into the next administration, reflecting the actual mood required for serious takeoff. In the light of our faith in God and humanity, the period of Lent reminds us of the ephemarility of life, and the need to make each day of our existence count. As we commence this solemn journey of faith, let's commit ourselves to the mortification of all things evil. Let's remind each other of the need to "die empty" - - holding back no good to the benefit of Society.   May we continue to reflect on the need to leave this Society better than we met it.  God bless us all Immensely.  CC.
