Tho LORD has told me to contest again.Rev Okotie.
« on: January 11, 2014, 08:12:46 PM »

In a exclusive interview with The Punch, Rev. Okotie said he will run in 2015, God willing.

“God spoke to me about my participation in the political process, which was why I took the step in the first place. He has not said anything contrary.’’, Rev. Okotie said.

When he was reminded that he had always lost every election he took part in by the reporters, Rev. Okotie explained that he had lost those elections as a result of election malpractices carried out,

He said, “I can sum it up in one word-rigging by the PDP. Even one of the party’s stalwarts, Chief Adeseye Ogunlewe, told The PUNCH recently that all elections have always been rigged. So that answers the question.

 “These election questions are inter-related. If they didn’t rig, then I could have won. Apart from election malpractices, the duty of a servant of God is to obey his master when he gives him instructions, irrespective of whether he fails or succeeds. Like Moses in the Bible, who kept fighting until Pharaoh released the Israelites.’’
