Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom has recounted how Rev Samuel Alaha, who anointed him in 1992 that he was going to be Governor of the state rejected a car gift from him when he eventually became Governor.
Governor Ortom made this disclosure Sunday, January 23rd, 2022 as the guest preacher at Faithway Gospel Ministries, Gboko, with the theme, ‘Help from Above.’
The Governor explained that after the prophecy by Rev. Alaha had been fulfilled and he became Governor in 2015, he visited the Pastor and presented the new car in appreciation.
According to the Governor, even though Rev Alaha received the gift on the spot, “he called after few days to inform him that he appreciated the offer but begged to return it because he did not find it necessary.”
Governor Ortom described Rev Alaha as a committed and true man of God whom he knew since 1980 for his zeal and commitment in service to God, pointing out that as Governor, he is determined to executing God’s counsel to people of the state at all times.
Governor Ortom who took his text from Thessalonians 5:18 and Philippians 4:6, enjoined the congregation to be thankful for the air they breathe, stressing that whatever one passes through is a route to greatness.
He admonished the congregation to seek first the kingdom of God and its righteousness and assured that “all other things will be added onto you.”
Governor Ortom also called on Christians to go back to the time when there was love towards one another “as it used to be in the past when we became Christians. True brotherly love is lacking today that is why there seems to be conflict all the times.”
