Besides, Ekuri emphasised that the brotherhood was established to unite the human family in love, peace, unity, truth and righteousness.
“The brotherhood is known as the Spiritual School of Practical Christianity. The World Headquarters of the Brotherhood is Calabar, Cross Rivers State,” he said.
According to him, the society holds women in high esteem, as they are given high positions to operate among themselves, and that there is no racism in the brotherhood.
Similarly, Ekuri stated that sidelines of the activities of the programmes include fasting and charity works by members worldwide in their places of domicile.
“They will go out on charity activities and visitation to orphanages, destitute homes and carryout activities to support the less privileged at their various locations,” he added.

Ekuri underscored the importance of global peace, unity and security wellbeing, urging world leaders and government to embrace global peace through the doctrines of the BCS.
“World leaders should embrace divine precepts of the brotherhood of man where all forms of discrimination shall cease to exist,” he said.
