The momentum of the day's courtesy visitations carried the ABAS RSU delegation forward as they proceeded to pay a visit to the State President of ABAS Rivers State, C.A Ini Johnson. This visit, coming on the heels of the earlier engagement with the Rivers State Administrator, further underscored the chapter's commitment to strengthening relationships across all levels of leadership within the Brotherhood fold. The delegation, once again led by the Chapter President CPS Bethel Dokubo, comprised Bro. Atagwung Gogo Mgbowa — VP Evangelism, Sis. Zinabari Heywood — VP Events and Logistics, Sis. Joy Amah — Mother III, Bro. Elemele Favour — Provost I, and Bro. Testimony Silas — Provost II.

As had become the order of the day, the session was opened with a prayer to set the spiritual tone for the engagement. Bro. Atagwung Gogo Mgbowa, serving once again as moderator, introduced the delegation warmly and articulated the purpose of the visit before handing the floor over to the chapter leadership.

CPS Bethel Dokubo opened proceedings by lifting his heart in gratitude to the Father for the successful resumption of academic activities, a testimony of His faithfulness and grace. He then brought to the fore the chapter's most anticipated event of the year, Erudite Gramercy Version 9, themed "Celebrating the Omniscient Luminary," slated for 1st – 6th June, 2026. Beyond announcing the event, the President went deeper, highlighting the profound significance of the celebration — both spiritually and physically. He spoke passionately about how the event serves as a beacon, not only for graduating Abasites stepping into a world full of uncertainties, but also for incoming ones, paving the way for them to thrive and stand firm despite the challenges life may bring. In essence, Erudite Gramercy is more than a celebration — it is a spiritual and academic lifeline.

Sis. Zinabari Heywood followed with her characteristic precision, walking the State President through the full rundown of activities lined up for the event week. She gave a confident account of the progress of the planning process, assuring Him that this edition of Erudite Gramercy would be the best the chapter has ever witnessed, owing to the innovative approaches that have been deliberately adopted in its ex*****on. The promise in her words was unmistakable — Version 9 was set to rewrite the story.

The floor was then extended to Sis. Joy Amah, Bro. Testimony Silas, and Bro. Elemele Favour, each of whom took a moment to express their hearts. Their words, though varied in expression, converged on one resounding theme : gratitude to the Father. Their faith was evident and infectious; for them, the event was not something to hope for — it was already a success in the spirit, and they were simply walking into the manifestation of what the Father had already ordained.

The State President, C.A Ini Johnson, received the delegation with warmth and genuine delight. He expressed heartfelt appreciation to the chapter for the honour of the visit and made clear how pleased he was with the zeal and dedication the Erudite Family had demonstrated. His counsel to all Abasites was pointed and powerful — to take their academic pursuits seriously, for the Father is well pleased when His children excel and distinguish themselves in their respective fields of endeavour, standing as true representatives of His glory in every sphere of life.
His pledge of support to Erudite Gramercy Version 9, physically, financially, and otherwise — was a source of great encouragement to the delegation. But perhaps the most stirring moment of the entire visit came when the State President, speaking as the Commander of all academic forces in the state, gave his word that the state would show up in full capacity to support the chapter — both men and spirits. It was a declaration that transcended the physical, and it left the room with a sense of divine assurance that no event backed by such authority could be anything short of glorious.

The visit drew to a close in the warmth of fellowship, a shared feast, and the familiar clicks of a camera capturing yet another landmark moment in the story of ABAS RSU.

The highly anticipated Erudite Gramercy Version 9 kicked off on a high note this morning as the Erudite Family of ABAS RSU gathered to mark the beginning of what promises to be an extraordinary week at 50 Obidianso Bethel. The morning commenced with a Super Morning Devotion conducted by the Father in SCS Aloy Ejiasa, setting a spiritual tone and igniting the hearts of all present for the days ahead.

Following the devotion, the Father declared an outing exercise, which was promptly led by the VP Evangelism, Bro. Atagwung Gogo Mgbowa. The outing served as a bold witness to men and spirits alike, announcing to the world that Erudite Gramercy Version 9 had officially begun.

Upon their return, the MC for the morning took charge and moderated the session with energy and order. The highlight of the morning was the Official Flag-off, performed by the Holy Father Himself, marking the formal commencement of the event. This was followed by an inspiring President's Speech delivered by CPS Bethel Dokubo, after which the Chairman, Sis. Zinabari Heywood, made the necessary announcements. The Vote of Thanks was graciously given by the Supervisor, Bro. Stefan Ogbolosingha, expressing gratitude to all who made the morning possible.

The Anthem was then rendered to usher in the Father, after which the atmosphere shifted into one of joy and celebration. A sumptuous love feast was shared among brethren, making the morning doubly special as it also coincided with the first day of a brand new month — a moment of double blessing and new beginnings.

The flag off session concluded on a warm and memorable note with a session of photography, as the Erudite Family captured the smiles, the bonds, and the spirit of the moment. It was indeed a morning of blessings, and a beautiful launch into what lies ahead this week.
