An IT professional, businessman, and philanthropist, Sir Charles Omiyale, and his wife, Lady Shaneka Omiyale, have been ordained the Knights of Saint Christopher (KSC) at the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) in Houston, Texas, the United States of America (U.S.A.). The investiture took place under the auspices of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) America Mission (CONNAM).

The solemn religious ceremony was officiated by Rt. Revd Dr. Augustine Unuigbe, the Coordinating Bishop of CONNAM.

In a special tribute, the Bishop of CONNAM Region 2, Rt. Rev. Celestine Irona, acknowledged the significant contributions of Sir Charles and Lady Shaneka Omiyale to the steady growth and advancement of the Anglican Communion in North America.

He said: “The new Knights have been found worthy in spiritual and moral character and for their outstanding devotion towards the propagation of the gospel of our lord Jesus Christ.”
