EKITI State governor, Mr Ayodele
Fayose, has said the state will further explore agricultural opportunities
which he said he discovered during his recent pilgrimage to Israel.
The governor made the disclosure
in an interview with newsmen after arriving from Israel.
A statement by his Chief Press
Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, quoted the governor to have said: “My trip to Israel
was both religious and economic. We went there to pray for Ekiti State and
Nigeria. There were other state governors from Benue, Plateau and even the
Speaker of the House of Representatives was there.
“By God’s grace, our state will
experience great rebirth in all ramifications. I will use the fresh anointing
from God to pray for our dear state. The agricultural opportunities we found
out in Israel, we will further explore to bring the sector back to the
forefront,” he said.
Commenting on the revelation by
the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Honourable Yakubu Dogara, that he
prayed for him to become the speaker, Fayose said all the glory belongs to God.
“Yes, he came and we prayed. God
can use anybody. But all the glory belongs to God. Those trying to twist what
happened for political reason, that is their own cup of tea. As far as I am
concerned, God can use anybody for His glory,” he said.
