The overzealousness of security personnel’s and protocol to top government, political and religious officials is an issue that needed urgent attention.
On Saturday, September 23, Dr. Pastor Enenche and his wife was at Ughelli, headquarters of Ughelli North LGA, Delta State for the official commissioning of a microfinance bank, Revelation Micro-Finance Bank, along Post Road Ughelli.
Though the program was scheduled for 9:00am, and guests seated even before the time. The man of God who arrived Warri on Friday, came late possibly as a result if his busy schedules. He arrived at exactly 12:35pm. With the excitement, guests and onlookers were eager to get glimpse of the popular Televangelist and gospel preacher, but the attitude of some private securities and some of the protocols was so appalling as they forceful pushed journalists around even telling them they will impound their cameras, and pounced on them.
A guest at the ceremony asked one of the protocols with a name tag ‘Charles’, “if you can deprive people from seeing him here on earth, will you deprive people from living with him in heaven?”. He said, we have been waiting for him for hours and here you are chasing people as if we are criminals. It is wrong and uncalled for. The man of God is a very humble man and he didn’t approve what you are doing.
The overzealous protocol officer, Charles responded by saying if you want me to show my character, you will fear me.
Men of God should always admonished their protocols of their excesses and respect the right of the citizens especially professionals on official duties.
