The newly sworn-in Governor of Edo State, Monday Okpebholo, has attributed his electoral victory to the grace of God, constant prayers and the support of the people of Edo State in the September governorship election.

This is even as he narrated the spiritual battle he faced towards his victory at the governorship election in September.

Okpebholo stated this in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Fred Itua, on Thursday.

The Governor noted that the grace of God, constant prayers, and the support of the people was responsible for his electoral victory. He, therefore, urged Nigerians to trust in God alone irrespective of their challenges in life.

Okpebholo made the disclosure during his post swearing-in Thanksgiving Service held at the Samuel Ogbumudia Stadium in Benin City, Edo State capital.

“I want to thank God. In this last election, while I was praising God, they (traducers) were busy operating from television. They were busy operating from social media. They were busy operating from other television stations.

“But I took the battle to God because I knew the secret. A few days to the election, they said I was crazy. We gathered to praise God in this State. They said, “What is he doing?” They were there on TV. But I was listening to the voice of God. I won the battle.

“After the election on Sunday morning, I came to my room. I met a bat that had died on my bed, without me shooting any arrow. But the spirit of God was there. The arrow of God; The hand of God delivered me.

“I am grateful to the men of God that stood in the gap. I am grateful to those who believed that with God, all things are possible. And I will give you one advice- trust in God alone because he will do it for you.

Okpebholo also disclosed that he did not consult any native doctor or prophet. Or visited any diviner or shrine to seek for help throughout the period of his electioneering.
