The OPM General Overseer in an interview with newsmen after his celebration with pupils of OPM Free Autism and Down Syndrome School 2, situated at Greg Ogbuife Street, GRA phase 2, Port Harcourt, Rivers State described these kids as a special gift from God.

The birthday celebration recently held attracted parents of these special children where they expressed thanks to the general overseer for lifting a huge burden off their shoulders considering the expensive nature of educating such children.
According to Mr. Okafor Richard who has an 11-year-old boy in the school said he’s very happy seeing the quick changes in his child within a few terms of joining the school free of charge.
“Before my son was so dull and only stayed on a spot but now he’s normal and behaving well and even hyperactive and soon I think he could join the normal school. I must say God has used the Apostle Chinyere to change the fortune of my children”, said the parent.
She said “we used to Another parent, Mrs. Gloria Ehyinimen in her experiences shared with newsmen said “before this, my child, 12 years old cannot talk or do anything in the house, in fact, I feed her with my hand, but by the time she started in this school, now she can feed herself.
“She can bathe herself and do other basic things, but before she couldn’t do anything. And we have not paid anything as school fees or for uniform, writing materials; all was given to her for free, so I thank the man of God and congratulate him”.

And I am not a member of OPM”.
Also sharing good testimonies about the OPM Free Autism and Down Syndrome School was Mrs. Suzan Henry who has a 12 years old daughter, Mary Henry that was schooling somewhere else before where she claimed to have paid so much with nothing tangible to show for it, but since her daughter had enrolled free in OPM School.
“Now she’s been responding well to the learning process and the teachers here have promised us that soon we can move her to the normal school for her to continue her studies. I must just pray for the Man of God to witness many more years in good health and abundant blessings”, said Mrs. Henry.
