Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, has advised state governors to emulate their Ekiti State counterpart, Mr Ayo Fayose, in protecting the interest of their people.
Adeboye stated on Saturday in Ado-Ekiti at the palace of Ewi of Ado-Ekiti, Oba Adeyemo Adejugbe.
The renowned cleric, who paid a call on the monarch before attending a crusade at the unusually crowded Oluyemi Kayode Stadium, Ado Ekiti described the governor as a great defender of his people and their cause.
He commended the governor for taking great risks of defending and protecting the interests of his people.
“Your Excellency, we thank God for your life, courage, boldness and being willing to take the risk.
“You are doing this so that your people can be protected and I know you are aware of what I am talking about.
“You can be sure that we are praying for you and you will succeed., i hope other governors will stand for their people like you and defend their people and say enough is enough,” he said.
Adeboye who prayed for the restoration of the lost glory of Ekiti, also commended Oba Adejugbe for leading his people in the way of the Lord.
Earlier, the governor said Nigerians appreciate the efforts of Adeboye at taking the gospel round the world.
“We know that it is at this time of the year that you go round and we pray that God strengthens you.
“Your visit is annually and when a man of God passes by, we want to take that advantage for him to bless us, we appreciate your efforts at taking the gospel round the world,” he said.
Oba Adejugbe described Adeboye’s visit as a blessing to the palace, and the people of the state in general.
Pastor Adeboye later held a revival at the stadium and later visited Ikere Ekiti, Ilawe Ekiti as well as Ogotun-Ekiti

Well spoken man of God.ur among the few that hold on to the truth.
Ma only Yoruba governor hope u are planning well for ur state coming forth election against thy wolfs
God bless U man of God for always saying the truth.
EXCENLLENCY GOVERNOR FAYOSE is out spoken man A man wt integrity brilliant Young D LORD is ur strength we believe u no complain
I HOPE FAYOSE WILL NOT MENTION PASTOR’S NAME AS A BENEFICIARY OF BLOOD(ARMS] MONEY THE DAY HE HANDS OVER AND ARRESED TO JOIN OBANIKORO & FANI KAYODE.
God bless you. A heartless man keeping/ holding firmly to d blood money ( just bcos of d stupid immunity in d constitution ) is bn praised while his crime colleagues are making tangible refund. I don’t think he knows it dat he is leaving evil inheritance in d spiritual treasure for his children. It is abt GOD, not abt man-of-God . As a christian let him read abt d story of king Ahab, how d prophets were afflicted by d spirit of lies bcos God wanted to kill him. Let Fayose listen to d whispering of d spirit of God. The spirit dat can never lie.
Fayose really helped his people when he begs and seek forgiveness from Fulani herdsmen for the fear of their revenge after he declared war with them….Fayose proved to be real indigene of ekiti state and dullest among many literates Professor, Doctors, Masters etc in Ekiti state.
When Fayose is not paying Salary what help is he doing to his people except spending money on over-head bridge in a city that have low traffic flow may bé for the future but such spending is not justify during reccession
33 state cnt pay salaries so wat r u talking abut is fayose ur state governor
Yes he is my State Governor he should face business of governance rather than making noise. Why can he emulate the 3 state that is paying if your statistics is right
U lacked what we may called future prospect as far as Ekiti is concerned
How would you love us more than ourself busy body face your problem of kidnapping and arm robbery that dominate your region. i beg
Is he the only one owing? Bad Belle keep ur mouth shut!
Nasiru Tijani Do u collect 13% oil derivative in Ekiti state like Cross River and Akwa ibom states or does Ekiti state has Tax base that can bring more taxes like Lagos state. Therefore, you should stop blaming him.
@ Abiodun I never blame him but he does not deserve praises as well since he and his other 33 Governors that could not paid failed in their constitution duty. however the issue of 13 percent does not even arise since Bayelsa, Rivers, Imo etc collected and still owning. You people need to bé sincere nobody good governance should not bé replacing by just abusing Leaders the way Fayose is behaving that making Igbo people to bé praising him is that what we elect him to do. fooly should bé the beginning of wisdom
Am sure d great man of God is not aware dat d governor has not paid his civil servants August till today salaries. As it is in d bible dat a labourer is entitled to his wages. They give wrong impression of themselves to these men of God. God will judge.
Don’t blame fayose for your salary, cos if he get his own allocation he will surely pay the civil servant
That’s how he annoitted Gej.
Those useless nigerian 4rm another state commenting rubbish is fayose ur governor go nd comments ur state governors is dey r better Dan him.
Those useless nigerian 4rm another state commenting rubbish is fayose ur governor go nd comments ur state governors is dey r better Dan him.
If man of God,said they should emulate fayose,that mean is not truely man of God.
Reason why u say that
@umaru,please dont insult our father in the lord. Or else,
so let adeboye also emulate former c.a.n president oritsajafor flying looted fund dat was seized in south africa.
Mallam Pastor Adeboye when did u bcame Fayose’s campaign manager??? Dats one ting wit our pastors or imams ones dey hav meet wit any of dese politicians deir preaching change a tune jst 2 mislead ppl. Fayose is a rogue.
If he says it to pmb,u will aplaud him
You hav ur reasons, Pst has his own. Why did you think your own is correct.? Have you been to the State like the Pastor did? We just talk becouse data is cheap. Ok na,NCC and FG will soon increase data.
If them increase u too go shut up
Do you give respect to your lmam,why do you call God servant mallam.watch your comment so that you will not receive a curse on your head.God servant is not campaign for anybody
Kahinde Adeyemi dont be part of dose ppl dat re worshiping pastor, dey re humanbeing like any other person, dey also sins nd ask God 4 4givness nd if i wil be cursed bcos i talked 2 ur pastor de way u dont like den dis world would hav stop existance since de day Jesus was crossified nd remember, Evrybdy is a servant of God nd dere is no different btw u nd pastor Adeboye in de eyes of de Almighty GOD.
Emulate fayose on what? on corruption? No I don’t believe the Pastor GO of rccg can say this.
Do u people know he stop the herdsmen frm terrorising the people,Do u he enforced the reductn of foodstuffs.U people shd be careful the way talk to men of God.
Pmb is best man 2 them.Let wait til 2009,to see his performance.
emulate who. propaganda governor
instead of him facing governance. he is busy talking about prediction of which. ALFA OR PASTOR THAT SAYS THERE IS GOING TO BE HUNGER ON THE LAND. REMEMBER HIS OR HER SONS OR DAUGHTER WILL NOT EAT GRASSES…
If ur pastor says it,wont u belif?
baba fayose z lyk u visitd him dix xmax?
Baba Adeboye, pls sir don’t involve urself with d Nigeria politician sir God bless u
Bcos he said Good thing about Fayose?if pmb its alright?
Fayose is a man that speak against oppression and injustice. I love your integrity sir.
man of God no more than we d followers he must have ses something unique in fayose
We celebrate d Governor.
Yes, baba Adeboye has spoken. Fayose deserves to be emulated especially by the boot-lickers & other lily-livered politicians. The Ekiti state governor is a reference point in courage & boldness. Bravo.
I always emphasized Fayose is a boil on the knob of Nigeria. Its time to pop that sucker and clean up the clutter”
Why is all the useless Northerners, the cows in human body, not talking about their governor? Every State in this Country has a governor, let those cows from the North tell us what their own governor has done. Governor Fayose is the voice of the people. He goes for what he want and believe in. He went to School and he can prove himself anywhere not the stark illiterate who cal himself a president.
Yesooooo
Austin Essien, yeeeh wetin u throw?.
THE PEOPLE THAT REMAINED IN THE P D P UNTIL NOW ARE THE ORIGINAL POLITICAL DEMOCRATIC MEN !!! OTHERS ARE SYCOPHANT AND COWARDS , WHO COULD NOT CORRECT PAST ERRORS NEITHER CAN THEY CORRECT PRESENT ERRORS !!! AMAECHI AND OTHERS !!!
Na so comrade
Fearless man
Leave them
What type of quality can other governors emulate from him?
Yes ooh
pastors should not be followed like God. Pastor Adeboye said his own side of view which has nothing to do with the reality
Yes God sender as spoke.
Misplaced praises by Adebayo.
Hard truth. Eye service towards Buhari vis a vis party’s interest will not permit many of them to be on d side of their people
Very very very rock hard truth.
Wao fayose carry go jor
Let our new generation churches’ pastors say the truth.Tell those govs that are not doing the wishes of those who voted them there.I don’t know what Pastor Adeboye wants us to emulate in Fayose.This a man who refuses to pay his workers salaries and pensioners allowances.There is nothing to emulate here.Pastor Adeboye himself should emulate those prophets in the Bible who told erring kings the home truth.
Ohun ti o ma je lo nwa.he knew how he went to see the bulldozer politicians invoke.forget.happy christmas and happy stomach infrastructures.yoruba will say,bi ebi onje ba ti kuro ninu lse,lsee ku ranpe.but o dowo gbogbo wa ooo.recall,history will not forget fayose.good or bad.
a wrong statement indeed !!!!!!!!
Some people will die or get cursed of what they know nothing about. Don’t be quick in insulting any pastor or Imam on what does not benefit or concern u. U better don’t regret ur life after now.
I love fayose forever
Pastor Adeboye perspective to Gov Fayose is different from the public. Every body have pros and cons .So for Pastor to call others Gov .to emulate Fayose may has his own reason. Thank you all.
Hmmmmm looting to continue ? Lobatan
He is my best governor for now, his people first
To emulate thugery adeboye misseed it
I love fayose so much, even though am not from his place but I love him
other governors fear d presdo b/cos of there coruption but fayose dont mine i love him
Na true
@mufu or what u call ur self, do u ever know mining of Governor or there responsible as governor? If one of ur family attack by this useless Fulani , u cud av understand what the man of God is saying, the Man his not talking about fayose political but saying fact about fayose protect his people from useless Fulani Muslim , okay
Emulating stubbornness. And lnsults,,,
D fearless lion of justice keep talking,indeed u ar a true democrat,I look forward to meet u sir.
I wish south east governos wil be like fayose
Daddy G.O was referring to how Gov Fayose nibbed the problem of cattle rustlers in the bud before it led to a serious problem
Am sure if the Gov of Bornu state has done some thing at the initiative stage of Boko Haram he too cloud have saved the lives of his people So the Governors were advised to emulate how peace can be maintained in their territory
You can fault the gov in any other aspect and f governance because he is human but whoever does not applaud him in the way he handled that crisis by enacting a law must be a sponsor of Cattle rustler n whoever is annoyed because the G O praised him must be an enemy of progress of Ekiti state
Cattle rustling is neither a religious or Political matter It is ploy of destabilisation n d gov has acted well in that regard His other actions like his prophesy n direct attack on the President can be subject to debate but this one,no controversy
Only bad people support bad things I thrust in Jesus my Lord and my saviour, there are no men of GOD again and that’s why I worship my GOD at home every Sunday, only papa kumuyi doesn’t involved in political matter. Hmmmmmmmmm pastor ageboye Christ or of PDP
na you get your month
na you get your mouth
You can worship your God anywhere you like but be careful not to make comment on an issue you don’t understand Is it a crime for a pastor to say other governors should emulate how peace can be maintainedn there state by enacting laws that prevent chaos as it happened in Bornu ,Benue n other states where their governor could not do anything until it became national disaster
Be careful of what u are commenting,
All the so called men of GOD should also emulate papa kumuyi the only true man of GOD
And adeboye should prepared to be the next PDP chairman
Is this adeboye we no or not. Wen did adeboye be come a curopt pastor. That will be in support of curopt devil like fayose. Wen did the devil over adeboye that will make him say a thing like this.
I stand with Fayose
Who is man of God?Only God knows His people and those who are worshipping Him.Man’s judgement is in the hands of God.Please thou shalt not judge.
