Enugu Is In The Hand of God: A Huge Irony!

The Enugu people are known for their peaceful and even docile nature. So, it was so easy for the slogan ‘Enugu is in the hand of God” to resonate well with the people of the state. We love the magical slogan. Who could quarrel with such a beautiful idea? Even an atheist will live with it.

But the whole scenario changed on Friday, 2nd August, 2019, when catholic priests matched toward the Government House chanting: “Enugu is no more in the hand of God. It is now in the hands of herdsmen!”. It was quite a spectacle to watch them in their priestly robes. And really, when it comes to telling who is in God’s hand, who can tell it better than the priests?

They just have to pray the State back into the hand of God. The people of Enugu cannot afford to be anywhere else.
