The General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye has anointed and given his fatherly blessings to the Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke.
The incident which took place on Wednesday was revealed in a statement signed by the spokesperson for the governor, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, which was also shared on his Facebook page.
Pastor Adeboye who was accompanied by his wife and senior pastors of the RCCG while attending the inauguration of the Jennifer Etuh Medical Centre held at Ifewara, urged Adeleke to continue to govern with the fear of God noting that as long as the governor continued to uphold the path of God, he would continue to earn the favour of God.
Adeleke, earlier described how his governorship ambition began with the anointing and prayers of Pastor Adeboye.
He said, “I remember Baba Adeboye anointed and prayed for me. His prayer for me is answered and I am here today as the Governor of Osun State.
“Baba has again prayed for me and re-anointed me. I will continue to toe the path of God. I govern by the fear of God. I will not derail as my governorship is anointed by God”, Adeleke declared.
Adeleke also said the reason he continued to sing and worship God on every occasion was a result of his agreement with God.
He said, “When Baba Adeboye was anointing me, he asked me to continue to sing and praise God. So when you see me dancing and praising God, that is my promise to my God as instructed by God. That is my secret.”
While inaugurating the centre, Pastor Adeboye described the ultra-modern multi-billion naira medical and vocational centre at Ifewara as a divine intervention in favour of the community while also praying to God to bless smaller towns without the possibility of government medical and educational interventions.
Pastor Adeboye while praying for the Etuh family and the repose of the soul of the late Jennifer, commended many human intervention programmes intended to impact people’s lives promoted and supported by the Etuh family. He urgef well-meaning Nigerians to extend hands of fellowship to their kith and kin.
Adeleke who was accompanied by his brother, Dr Deji Adeleke, the Chief of Staff, Kazeem Akinleye, Sunday Bisi, Adewale Egbedun, Niyi Owolade, Rev Bunmi Jenyo and others later inaugurated the medical and vocational centre.
The Jennifer Etuh Foundation which is responsible for building the medical centre is inspired by the late Mrs Etuh who before her death instructed that such medical centres should be built in six zones of the federation. The Ifewara Medical Centre is the third of the planned medical centres.
