AIM (Advocate for the Interest of the Masses) We missed church on this day; a Sunday, but our convictions remain that, doing the humanitarian works of love, there shouldn’t be regrets and we gladly left the shores of Makurdi by 7am, traveling, first to Anyiorikyo-Wuese, deep into the hinterlands of Konshisha Local Government Area.
