Rev Steve Joab added that a servant is expected to take instruction and be obedience so that he/she can take over from the boss at the right time. Corroborating the guest speakers the host Rev Hyacinth N. Anie Director ACTS lamented that some of the present Churches have derailed and lost their glories.

They allowed many things to happen such as materialism, worthiness, politics and other vices. Those things have entered into Churches and people are now compromising.

So this Integrity Seminar is organised to restore the lost glory . According to Rev. Hyacinth N. Anie, a good and Faithful Servant Leader is expected to be disciplined, have wisdom, courageous, integrity/sincerity, faithful and endure in discharge of duties.

He concluded by saying that the major challenges facing is how they can relocate to a better site and students living up to expectation in payment of their school fee so that lectures can be paid.
