PASTOR NAMES SON AFTER GOVERNOR GODWIN OBASEKI

A pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in Benin City has named his newly born son after the Edo state Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki.

Pastor Daniel Ekhator, simply known as “Demon destroyer”,  whose wife was delivered of his bouncing baby boy at about 3:45am on Monday morning after 16 years of waiting, appreciated God for wiping away his tears and hinged his decision to name his son ‘GODWIN’ after Governor Godwin Obaseki in appreciation of his outstanding achievements over the last few years in Edo State.

He specifically praised the governor for his stellar accomplishments in various sectors across the state and his doggedness and resolute commitment to improving the welfare of the ordinary Edo man and woman in the face of opposition from some few self centred persons who care more of themselves rather than the collective interests of the people.

He saluted the unusual courage of Governor Obaseki who has remained unfazed by attempts by the APC to deny him the chance to contest on its platform and noted that Edo people will support him to return for a second term against all odds and that unique trait of courage and resilience was what motivated him to name his son after the governor.

He encouraged all Edo people to unite and rally behind the governor as he seeks to return for a second term as he (Obaseki) is God sent just like his son to help wipe away their tears of suffering and frustration.
