Wife of former Edo State chapter chairman of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ, Mrs Judith Aladenika, was among the set of graduands at the 38th convocation ceremony of Benin based theological school, The Freedom Bible College.

The 32nd  convocation ceremony of the Benin based theological school, took place at the college's premises in Benin, the Edo State capital.

 Mrs Aladenika emerged as the best graduating female student and also won a prize for her exemplary performance.

 Addressing the graduands, visitors and other christian ministers from various denominations who thronged the convocation ground for the ceremony, the Rector and General Overseer of The Freedom Bible College, Rev. (Dr.) Bishop Abraham Chigbundu , noted the college has so far trained and graduated more than 10, 000 students, most of whom as ministers in the vineyard of God have engaged themselves in the selfless task of spreading the gospel at various levels.



 Rev Chigundu added that COVID- 19 pandemic brought a lot of disruptions and challenges and noted the college was only able to cope because of the forward thinking approach of the college's management team which envisioned and incorporated innovations into its curricular, including the introduction of an online school which has graduated several   students from across the world.
 In his address, the principal of the college, Rev (Dr.) Kennedy Chukwukwere, spoke of the need to upgrade the competencies of Christian ministers in a 'sin ravaged' world.

He urged the graduands to be good ambassadors of God in their respective dealings with the people and whilst they attempt to lead others to God.

: The graduands were taken through a rigorous academic session which spanned several months and covered the three broad categories of Diplomas, Associates and Bachelor of Arts.
