Anambra Gov Willie Obiano, on Saturday, admitted the presence of evil spirits in the Government House, and was about expecting the clerics he addressed at a rally to invoke the host of heaven.

But he got a shocker.

The Archbishop, Province of Niger and Bishop, Dioceses of Awka, the Most Rev. Alexander Ibezim, said that the evil spirits in the government house were human beings.

“The government should fight the evil spirits themselves in the state house, while the church will fight those outside the government house,” he said.

He was responding to the statement the governor made  at the Province of the Niger, Anglican Prayer Rally of Anambra State (APRAS) 2019, with the theme “The Righteous shall Flourish like Palm Tree”, held at the Dr. Alex Ekwueme Square, Awka Anambra State.

Obiano, who spoke through the secretary to the State Government, Prof. Solo Chukwubelu, said there are evil spirits in the state house.

“In the government House, the evil spirits come and go. We urged the church to pray hard to let them leave the government for good,” he said.
