In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to any law. It recounts the life story of His Most Eminence, Prophet (Dr.) Emmanuel Adewale Abiodun Alogbo, born in 1933 in Lagos, Nigeria, including his musical upbringing, his spiritual awakening in 1959, his founding of the first branch of the Cherubim and Seraphim Movement Church in Southern Nigeria in 1960, and his 2025 appointment as Supreme Head of the Cherubim and Seraphim Unification Church of Nigeria. The resolution formally honors him on behalf of the Senate and extends well wishes for his health and happiness. It also directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to him. The document creates no new rules, funding, or legal obligations.
