Ezeofor who stated this while delivering his sermon at the Cathedral Church of Saint John, Ekwulobia, during a special service for the collation and installation of Venerable Ifeanyi Mgbemene and Henry Okonkwo as Archdeacons expressed regret that the faith of modern Christians is under serious attack.

He further stressed that God knows how to deal with the wicked, calling on Christians to live lives of integrity.
