Most Rev Henry Chukwudum Ndukuba is Primate of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion and Bishop of Abuja. In this interview with Advent Cable Network Nigeria crew, Archbishop Ndukuba reveals his growing up years; how he came into the ministry at early age, challenges and his advice to upcoming ministers.My name is Henry Chukwudum Ndukuba. From my life’s story, my parents made me understand that I came as the answer to a special prayer unto God after some time of anxiety.
While in the secondary school and we went home during holidays, young children and teenagers loved staging ballroom dances and other things. They would walk along the roads with their hands in their pockets, trying to do ‘guy,’ as was the vogue then, but my dad wouldn’t allow us. Who are you? If you tried it, you had to face the music. We were trained in such a way that, regardless of whether you were a boy or a girl, you had to learn to do all chores, such as sweeping and washing.
As a teenager, you try to discover life for yourself, find your own level, answer your own questions and try to be independent. I taught in children Sunday school and all that. All those things we did as a kind of duty, at least doing what mummy and daddy wanted us to do. But when I was in Class Four at BSC Orlu in 1977, we had a new teacher, who was an SU man. He was very quiet but very strict. He was very dutiful and we watched him closely.
So, when I was given an option to choose whether to be a banker or any other thing, I chose to be a Librarian, and that was how I got employed in the Ministry of Education, Kano State. I used to go to Kano to stay with my uncle, and after my secondary school, I went to stay with him permanently from 1978, and until now, I haven’t left the North. It was a wonderful experience.
Was it a difficult choice to go into ministry? So many people struggle with the fact that God has called them…
Very gentleman man ,happy to have come from same community with you.
Lol 😂
