The vice-president of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo yesterday (September 6, 2015) attended the 33rd Holy Ghost
Convention of The Sword of the Spirit Ministries in Ibadan, headed by Bishop Francis
Wale Oke, where he spoke about the nation and assured Nigerians again that
their government will make this nation great again. Osinbajo who
was accompanied by his wife, Dolapo said it is too
early to rate the president and himself in office now, but one thing he assures
all is that this country will be great for us all to enjoy. “I think that the
nation has high expectations and I know that things are just getting better by
the day. I believe that by the grace of God, all of those expectations and
beyond will be met. So, we are looking forward to more exciting times and great
things for this nation.” Continue,,.
Speaking about his nomination back then as the
vice-president, he recalled that a lot of pastors and general overseers wanted
to know why he agreed to run for such a position…. “A meeting of men of God was
called by Bishop Wale Oke and they wanted to understand why it was that I was
running for office and they wanted to ask questions about the threat of
Islamisation. They needed answers. “After I answered the questions, they began
to support the effort. They decided that they have heard enough and they were
convinced that what the Lord was about to do was something that will make a
difference in this country. “I am happy they have not been disappointed. God
fulfilled the promise and we won the election. “Winning an election and being
the Vice President is nothing. The most important thing is that God has said
that we must be the light of the world. All the accolades and prestige of my
office cannot compare with the duty that God has given us to be true disciples.
“I pray that God will help me and the President to truly do the work. With the
prayers of Nigerians, we will see a change, prosperity and all of us will enjoy
this nation,” he said.
Also speaking, Bishop Wale Oke urged the people to protect
the welfare of others, adding that God had always been with the righteous.
“When you answer the call of God, definitely you become a blessing and that
blessing will transform to divine enlargement,’’ he said. He said God had promised
to use the convention with the theme, “Divine Enlargement, ” as a symbolic
season.
