For triumphing in all the 38 court cases filed against him by his political opponents before and after the 2023 election climaxing with the final victory at the Supreme Court, Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has expressed appreciation to church leaders for their prayers.

Speaking on Saturday at the Light of Christ Ministry, Sapele, where he graced the wedding ceremony of the Ovoke Akpobasas, Governor Oborevwori, in company with his wife, Tobore, and other top government functionaries, said “”I want to thank all the great men of God that stood firm praying for me to survive 38 cases. It was indeed the grace of God”.

He described the groom as a son to him and congratulated him and his wife on their successful marriage ceremony.

Oborevwori, who said he was governor for all Deltans, stated that he wasn’t bothered about the size of the church when he was told, stressing that one could serve God anywhere.

Chairman of the occasion and chieftain of the All-Progressives Congress, APC, Ominimini Obiuwevbi, described Governor Oborevwori as a people-friendly and Grass rooted leader.

Obiuwevbi expressed joy at the presence of the Governor at the event and said, “this is the first time I am seeing a Governor that is so grass-rooted and attending ceremonies.

“I am therefore led by God Almighty to pray for the Governor. Your Excellency, by the authority of the Lord you serve, it shall be well with you; receive mercy, receive more opportunities and grace. The Lord will be gracious to you.”

Commending the newly-weds for being obedient to their parents, he posited that coming together as a couple was a thing of joy to their parents, and that honouring one’s parents is a biblical injunction.

Obiuwevbi charged them to continue to love each other, noting that the marriage institution was a place of continuous learning, but that they must have love and tolerance for each other.

Earlier in a sermon titled “The Pillars of Marriage”, the Pastor of the church, Efe Okuigbedi, admonished the couple to live as friends, pray together, love each other, and never allow third parties in their home.
