The conference of the Methodist Church of Nigeria has computerized the clergy of the church in a digital move that is designed to strengthen evangelism and engender quality humanitarian work. The church has standardized on Zinox Computers as the appropriate work tools for a church that continues to focus on how best to reach their immediate environment with the message of good news through John Wesley's method of aggressive evangelism. The conference of the MCN, through the Secretary, His Lordship Bishop Chibuzor Opoko, ordered the Zinox Pride laptops for all the clergy in Nigeria. This was formally launched in Umuahia, Abia State, on August 7, 2010.

Under the partnership Zinox offered the choice Zinox Pride laptops at concessionary prices to help the work of God. Each Zinox Pride laptop comes standard with Microsoft Windows PRO/Vista Business loaded with 1,000,000 e-books, electronic bible, over 80,000 work sheets, revision questions and answers for WAEC, JAMB, and Post UME examinations, and a shock proof laptop bag. The Zinox Pride runs on T4400 - Duo Core 2.2 GHz/160GB HDD with a memory of 2GB DDR, Touch pad, Net Trace - Theft Tracker, built-in Blue tooth, built-in 2M pixel Camera, and Wireless LAN CARD.

When contacted on phone Bishop Chibuzor Opoko said that the exercise was part of an on-going computerization program which, would enable the clergy to access the deep knowledge embedded in the internet, network with like-minded people globally through the huge database of the church, develop skills and attitudes to sustain interaction with the reality of digital natives and immigrants, and keep pace with spiritual and humanitarian trends globally. Bishop Opoko said that the computers would help ease the administrative functions of pastoral work. He confirmed that they chose the Zinox Pride laptop because it is rugged, has compelling aesthetics and is Nigerian.

Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Sunday Mukoro, the Managing Director of Zinox Computers, said that the computerization of the Clergy would usher a bright future for the church. These digital tools would bring about a new way of seeing and doing things. For example, he expects these tools to re-define charity from giving people fish to giving them digital skills for sustenance. He explained that the e-books suite embedded in the computers could be a source of life saving tutorials for WAEC, JAMB, and Post UME examinations. Mr. Mukoro said that the Methodist Church is a major player in the educational sector and the e-books suite would be invaluable.

Mr. Mukoro said that the Methodist Church Nigeria is the newest addition to the growing list of churches that have standardized on Zinox. Others include the Anglican Communion that recently bought Zinox laptops for all her clergy. The Dunamis International Church in Abuja is also among the list of Churches distinctively computerizing their workers with Zinox Laptops. The Roman Catholic Church relies on Zinox for many of her IT needs.
