My Childhood Survival Was Miracle –Fayemi

By Ayodele Oluwafemi

Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State has attributed his survival as a child to God’s intervention.

Fayemi who narrated the sad experience of his parents during a special Thanksgiving service and reception to mark his 55th birthday, on Sunday said they had lost two children before his birth.

The governor said he was named Folorunso meaning ‘left in God’s care’, because his parents resort to God’s hope for his childhood survival.

He said, “I give God all the glory for giving me uncommon favour. It is uncommon because my parents never knew I could survive infancy.

“They had lost two children in quick succession and that was why they named me Folorunso. My parents just thought they should just wait and see the outcome and today I am celebrating 55, I give God all the glory.

“For me, challenges are opportunities to make a difference in the lives of human beings, so if you allow me, let us just focus on the work of God to improve the conditions of our society and Country.

“All of the challenges will not go away overnight, but you should believe that God is the one that can always use those of us that have been given grace to lead, to be of service to all his children, we have no choice than to continue to commit ourselves to the Service of God.”
