Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, has reiterated his commitmen`t to serve the people with all his strength just as he vowed never to stop worshipping God.

The governor made the vow while participating at the 70th Anniversary Thanksgiving Service of the Gideon House of Prayer Church of the Sacred Order of the Cherubim and Seraphim, Joseph Lambo Area, Ebute-Meta, Lagos State.

Adeleke recounted his old days at Joseph Lambo area of Ebute meta, declaring that he can never be too busy to praise God in spite of his current position as a governor.

He said: “As a governor, I govern with the fear of God. I focus on meeting the needs of the people. Those values of God-driven life I learnt from childhood were from here at Joseph Lambo.”

The governor vowed never to disappoint the people of his state in the discharge of his duty as the governor while praying that God will grant the church the grace to actualise its 5-year development plan sooner.

Earlier in his sermon, the Deputy Baba Aladura of the Church, His Eminence, Dr. Olusegun Demuren, lauded Senator Adeleke for his love for humanity and outstanding fear of God, which he attributed as the secret behind his monumental achievements as the governor in less than one year in office.

The cleric, who preached about steadfastness of faith, forgiveness of sins, and love for humanity, called on Christians to be mindful of the second coming of Jesus Christ, and prepare for the day of accountability before their God.

The event was also attended by the Deputy Governor, Prince Kola Adewusi, the Speaker and members of the Osun State House of Assembly, commissioners, and other important dignitaries.
