Oba of Benin Kingdom, Oba Ewuare II joins Rev. Dr. Felix Omobude at New covenant Gospel Church for annual thanksgiving service.
In his speech he did acknowledged the elders of the church, the distinguished guest and all the chiefs that accompanied him. It was really mind blowing as the congregation applauded while he made his speech, he said after he received the invitation the Lord almighty spoke to him that he must be in attendance ……..
He said this is the very first time he would be in the Pentecostal church all his life and that he is grateful to God almighty and made some prayers for the people in attendance. Thanking Rev. Omobude and the other churches that always come to pray at the palace and also cheered up the man of God with a sense of humor.
The Oba acknowledge that the last time he stood before a large congregation was when he was an ambassador in Italy in a catholic archdiocese to speak to the then trending issues of human trafficking and illegal migration of the people of Benin in particular to Italy and by extension Europe for prostitution, he quoted the Holy bible from the book of Genesis peculiar to Moses and Pharaoh……..
He condemned the act and urged the church to help rehabilitate those who are ready to stop this immoral act without any iota of stigmatization.
He also spoke on how his reign has helped to make the land of Benin accommodative to tourist and everyone by putting an end to CDA which was supposed to stand for ” community development association” but was operating as “community destructive association”………………. watch for more insight
