Olu of Warri Celebrates 28 Years on The Throne

The Itsekiri people on Friday gathered at the Palace of the Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse II to commence the 28th Coronation Anniversary of the monarch. They gathered at the Four Square Gospel Church Aghofen, inside the Olu Palace in Warri South to offer praises to God for sparing their lives and that of the monarch.

The senior pastor in the church, Pastor Sam Aboyeji urged the people to always appreciate the goodness of God in their lives. Aboyeji, who drew his sermon from the book of Psalms 21:1,
Deuteronomy 7:6 among others, noted that ''all God want is the heart of appreciation''.

''The Itsekiri people need to appreciate God because they have not been conquered by the enemies around them. If we deny God his worship and praise, then will we be as bad as the nine lepers in the Bible,'' he said Aboyeji likened the Itsekiris to the Israelites in the Bible who had enjoyed God's divine blessings, increase, power, favour and wealth, urging them to sustain their faith in Christ.
