Brass Gospel carnival non-political, APC legislator says

Over 20 Nigerian gospel artists are expected to be in Brass Island, Brass Local Government Area  of Bayelsa State, for brass ultimate praise night. Speaking to journalists during pre-event press briefing in yenagoa the Bayelsa State capital, Hon. Isreal Sunny-Goli,  a member of the Bayelsa State House of Assembly,  denied the claims by some politicians in the State that the December 15th Brass Gospel night is organised by the All Progressive Congress (APC).

According to Sunny-Igoli, though the Brass Ultimate Gospel Night is organised by all the Christian Leaders in Brass Local Government Council in partnership with him as the member of the constituency at the State House of Assembly‎, the Gospel festival is not a partisan canival but one targeted to fulfil a promise he had with God.

“According to him, “It might interest you to know that couple of months ago, I promised God that I will organize a programme of this magnitude to honour Him for His interminable providence and protection upon my life, my family and all those who associate with me. The Brass Ultimate Praise Night is therefore, a fulfillment of that solemn promise.”

Hon. Isreal Sunny-Goli, said ‎as against the misperception of some persons, which of course has been expected, the praise night is not organized to champion any political cause, but principally to glorify the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.”

“It remains my unwavering faith that as we take praise to new heights on the 15th of December, we shall encounter divine renewal, reformation and revitalization of our spirit, soul and body. And that Brass Island and indeed Bayelsa State will never remain the same again.”

Sunny-Goli, who was with Chief Nengi Ayerite, Head of Publicity, Chief Feliks Siese,Secetary Central Working Committee and John Okhai, PRO,Central Working Committee, said “I want to assure those who have security concerns to not fret, as adequate security arrangements have already been made to protect every guest to and from Brass.Let me categorically state here that the waterways will be utterly secured and the praise night will be a huge success, hence there is no cause for alarm.”

“Come let us together worship the merciful, gracious God that seats on the highest throne. Come let us together praise the name of God with songs, and magnify Him with thanksgiving just like King David did (Psalm: 69:30).”

Sunny-Goli also announced that over 20 gospel artiste will attend the Gospel canival with Mignight crew, Frankie Edwards and many others listed to entertain over 10,000 visitors expected in the island.
