Ademola Adeleke, the governor of Osun State, remembered how Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the general overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, anointed him back in 2018 and foretold his rise to power.
Adeleke also said that even though the prophecy did not immediately come to pass, he was not discouraged. Adeleke made these remarks on Wednesday at the opening of the Jennifer Etuh Medical Centre and Skills Acquisition Centre, both of which were built by the Jennifer Etuh Foundation in memory of the late Jennifer Etuh. Ifewara, Osun State.
The governor, who pledged to lead the state in fear of God, noted that the foundation’s supply of the health facility was in line with his administration’s free medical and surgical effort, which saw the treatment of various illnesses in over 20,000 disadvantaged inhabitants.
He said, “Pastor Adeboye anointed me in 2018, and said that I would be the next governor of Osun State. I have faith in his declaration. After I was cheated in 2018, I went back to school to prepare. I returned in 2022. The prophecy of Baba Adeboye started manifesting.
“Since I took over as the governor of the state, I have rolled out several initiatives. Part of it is Imole Medical Outreach. A leader must have the fear of God; I have the fear of God; that is why I am paying backlog of salaries that they owe pensioners and workers. A leader must do what is right for the people.”
In his remarks, Pastor Adeboye referred to the late Jennifer Etuh as “one of my favorite daughters,” noting that before her passing, she requested the construction of six hospitals, one of which would be located in Ifewara, where he was born and raised.
The clergyman claimed that, prior to the health center being donated by the foundation, he had tried to create a similar facility for the community but had been unable to do so due to the expense.
