Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Sunday said it could have been a breaking news in local and international media that Nigeria’s Vice President and others aboard a helicopter died in a crash, but God did not allow such to happen.
The Vice President and nine others persons including crew members on Saturday survived a helicopter crash in Kabba, Kogi State.
Osinbajo, who spoke during a thanksgiving service, held at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) City of Grace, Lokoja, Kogi State said that no amount of thanksgiving and praises to God would be enough for saving his life and other occupants of the helicopter that crashed.
“Only God can take the glory for saving my life and that of the nine crew members on aboard. 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 back to him.
“We are here to say thank you, thank you Jesus. We bless his name forever and ever.”
He prayed God to bless all the people that showed concern when they heard the news of the crash in the state, the nation and the world at large.
According to Adeboye, the devil wanted to take the life of the vice president but God put the devil to shame.
He, therefore, asked the congregation to specially appreciate God on behalf of the VP and all the people aboard, for his supernatural protection, saying Nigeria would not mourn.
