The oldest Institution on earth is the Church and sorry for being fanatical, the Catholic Church Precisely! Very organized, highly uniformed, full of traditions and have survived for over 2,000 years. Her doctrines are well laid out and her teachings infallibly-handed down from generation to generation. One remarkable line in her numerous teachings is that the church is a church of saints and sinners! It is not a monopoly of saints nor an institution where all arrogate Sainthood unto themselves and see no room for examination of conscience and mea culpa to God and humanity. I was brought up in this tradition, I believe in it and so too must all who belong to that Christendom. I am sure Peter Obi, the ex-governor of Anambra State belongs to this tradition too.
