The only factor I recognize is God- Gov Okpebholo

Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has again reiterated his trust in God, revealing that he contested the September 21 governorship election without seeking help from native doctors or prophets.

The Governor made this disclosure on Sunday at Winner’s Chapel, Akho in Irrua, Esan Central Local Government Area of Edo State, where he worshipped alongside top members of his administration.

“I want to thank God for his wonderful deeds in my life, as no one can accomplish this except Him alone. My life is filled with testimonies, and God has consistently granted me victory in all my endeavours,” Governor Okpebholo noted.

“This is the first instance where someone has contested an election without seeking help from native doctors or prophets. My faith is in Christ alone. If God does not will it, then let it not be done.

“In Nigeria, and indeed the world, no prophet or native doctor can claim that I visited them for help in winning the election.

“The only factor I recognize is God. If He cannot accomplish it, then let it not be done. This marks the first time in Nigeria that a person has contested an election, and the prevailing sentiment is that God’s grace is upon him or her.

“As a member of Winner’s Church, I am confident that we cannot be losers, especially since both my Deputy and I are part of this community. How can we lose? While others were strategizing and utilizing media outlets, I trusted in the Lord, and He granted me victory,” the Governor revealed.

The Pastor of Winner’s Chapel Church, Akho, Peter Osawe, spoke on the topic ‘Wisdom kits for joy and rejoicing,’ emphasizing that God is the pivotal factor in human life.

He noted that nothing occurs without God’s knowledge and encouraged the congregation to continue drawing strength from God’s word.

“Nigeria will become a better nation if we work together, as the process of improvement begins with us,” he added.

Governor Okpebholo also attended a service at God’s People World Wide Prayer Ministry in Illeh, Ekpoma, Esan West Local Government Area of Edo State.

Apostle Ehijele Unuayan, the General Overseer, urged the Governor to remain focused on his vision for the state’s development and the welfare of its people.

Apostle Unuayan expressed gratitude to the Governor for approving automatic employment for First Class graduates of Edo origin from universities in Nigeria and worldwide.

In his address, Governor Okpebholo stated that he was in church to seek prayers for success in governing the state.

“I am here to pray for the strength to move the state forward, to work for the Edo people, to utilize the state’s resources for development, and to promote justice and fairness for the Edo people.”

The highlight of both church services was the prayers offered for the success of Governor Okpebholo’s administration over the next four years.
