programme, said to Fayose: ”
We thank God for your life sir. We
thank God for your courage, for your boldness, we thank God for your being
willing to take risks so that your people can be protected. You have been a
governor who knows when to say enough is enough in defense of his people. And
I’m sure you know what I’m talking about and am sure the world knows. I don’t
want to say more than that but be assured that we are praying for you and you
will succeed in Jesus name.”
Urging other governors to equally defend their people, Adeboye prayed for all state executives, adding: ”

Revealing that Ado-Ekiti remain his home as his grandmother had hailed from the town, Pastor Adeboye explained to the Ewi of Ado that he could not resist his invitation to call at the palace even though his shedules were tight. He therefore promised to specially visit the monarch someday, saying: “Kabiyesi, this is my home as my grand mother hailed from here. Many have been waiting for me in all parts of the state and I have to visit all of them, that is why I haven’t been coming. But I promise to specially visit you someday.”
The Ewi of Ado also appreciated Adeboye’s visit saying: “you have come to your source. By your coming here today to bless the palace, you are by extension blessing all the palaces in Ekiti State and also all the people of Ekiti.”
