He noted some people plan to engage in evil acts such as alcoholism, theft of the domestic animals, and adultery among others during the festive period.
He says that farmers are having sleepless nights guarding their farms because of the increasing theft of animals such as livestock and poultry among others because of people still living in darkness.

He called the public to repent and live lives that glorify the name of God.
