Elumelu further stressed that the “crucifixion and triumphant resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead offer us heavenly assurance of the triumph of life over death, health over sicknesses, happiness over gloom, hope in despair as well as our healing, deliverance from pestilences and our complete victory over this COVID-19 pandemic
