Rev. Dr. Sam Ogedengbe, the Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to former governor Babatunde Fashola, has discussed why he will back the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate in the general election of 2023.
Ogedengbe, the general overseer of Overcomers Pentecostal Prayer Ministry and the national president of All Christian Leaders and Ministers’ Forum (ACLMF), made the announcement yesterday at the conclusion of a national prayer session held at the church’s Abule-Egba, Lagos, headquarters.
He claimed that he and the late Dr. Lanre Obembe had served as Asiwaju Tinubu’s pastor since 1999. He also claimed that when he and Pastor Enoch Adeboye founded a Christian chapel at the Lagos House, Marina, along with other religious leaders, he automatically became one of the officiating pastors.
Ogedengbe said: “Although the APC standard-bearer is a Muslim, for the past 15 years, he has never failed to present Christmas gifts to me and other Christian leaders in Lagos State and other parts of the country.
“Senator Oluremi Tinubu is a wonderful sister and supporter of our ministry.”
He said no matter the situation, he and his followers would never deny Tinubu, asserting that “we will vote for him.”
