On his election, he adopted a motto “that all may be one” (John 17:21), with the intention of uniting the entire Diocese into one. In his apostolic work in the Diocese he has displayed the fatherly image in that he knew the Diocese from one corner to the last end and was more alert with the contemporary issues in the Diocese and in the country.
He was a visionary leader in his style of leadership, a virtue seen in the many projects he has undertaken in the Diocese including the drafting of a strategic plan for the diocese. Archbishop Martin was simple, open to dialogue and involved the Clergy, Religious Men and Women and Lay leaders in running the affairs of the Diocese.
