I have passed through so many Governors, but Daniel, has been exceptional. Every promise he made he fulfilled. If you are looking for original Omoluabi, you will find in him. People like him are very few. I respect you, OGD. The Redeemed Christian Church of God owe you in high esteem. You started well and you will end well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGod does not count in years, He counts in days. Anyone who does not fear God is a fool. To begin to be wise, you must fear God. Wisdom is the correct application of knowledge. From the day you are born, you begin a journey back to your exit on earth. Every journey has an end and at the end you will give an account.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery religion talks about it, Christianity, Islam and even our forefathers says what ever you do will be waiting for you at the gate, unfortunately how soon our journey will end is not made to us. We are all going to be on the path of a journey of no return. A journey of accountability. It is a compulsory journey. Do you know the way?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, the Ogun State governor, Dapo Abiodun, described Daniel as a leader whose life reflects service, excellence and commitment to national development.<\/p>\n<p>Abiodun who was represented by his deputy, Noimot Salako-Oyedele, said the former governor brought energy and purpose to the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAttaining the age of 70 is a remarkable milestone, one that calls for reflection on a life marked by impactful service, enterprise, and sustained engagement with society. It is a moment to recognise his immense contributions not only to his state but also to the nation at large\u201d the governor added.<\/p>\n<p>In his \u2018thank you message\u2019, Senator Daniel appreciated the clerics for their continuous support over the decades, stressing that their prayers and support sustain him.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that he will continue to serve the people with the rest of his life, urging Nigerians to be hopeful and support President Bola Tinubu.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe people should be hopeful. We have a good President. He is intelligent. He has a plan. People always say that you cannot have a crown without a cross. So we are wearing the cross now. And from what we are seeing, the cross is turning to a crown.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
