He said: “Any position I have occupied which were by divine providence, it was my belief that it should not be used to create hardship for the people,”

“Most great men of God came from very humble beginning and we are happy that Pastor Charles has impacted on the society at just 50”. 

Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta, also added his voice and described Pastor Osazuwa as a man of truth.

He said: “I thank God that he is 50 and I know that the Lord has many more years for him in His vineyard.  “He has impacted so many lives, including mine, and one good thing you enjoy here is that you have a man of God that preaches Christ and salvation and whenever he is with me that has always been his emphasis and I cherish it.

“When you are in privileged position of authority you need people to remind you of your purpose in life as a Christian.  He speaks with the fear of God only and not the fear of man and I believe that all our church leaders should continue to speak in that manner.  It is important for us as church leaders to speak out bodly in the interest of the nation because the prophetic words that come from their mouth will also help to change this nation.  “The problems that we have in the nation today will be solved through the church because the Lord will hear the prayers of the church,” Okowa stated.
