"The church has maintained a consistent and enviable record of cordial relationship with the government and this cannot be forgotten in a hurry.

"The church has offered prayers, moral support, spiritual backing whenever the need arises; physical participation in government programmes is a demonstration of solidarity and unalloyed support to the government."
