Osinbajo goes for thanksgiving after surviving helicopter crash

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo (2)

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Sunday said that no amount of thanksgiving and praises to God would be enough for saving his life and nine others in a helicopter crash.

Prof. Osinbajo survived a helicopter accident at Kabba in Kogi State on Saturday.

Osinbajo spoke during a thanksgiving service at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), City of Grace, Lokoja.

“Only God can take the glory for saving my life and that of the nine crew members on board,” he said.

He said that it would have been breaking news on local and international media that Vice President Osinbajo and nine crew members died in a helicopter crash, but God had not allowed such to happen.

“No amount of thanksgiving and praises to God would be enough for saving my life and nine crew on board.

“God is the one who can do all things, and only him can take the glory; we return the glory to him.

“We are here to say thank you, thank you JESUS. We bless his name forever and ever,” he said.

Earlier, in a live telecast from the RCCG headquarters, Lagos, the General Overseer of the church, Enoch Adeboye, asked the congregation to rise and give glory to God for saving Osinbajo.

“When God begins to use you, the glory belongs to God and you, so you must learn to always give glory to God.

“Do not take the glory to yourself because it is not yours, it belongs to God,” Adeboye said.
