“My parents thought I will die…” Governor Fayemi shares testimony at 55th birthday thanksgiving

Ekiti State Governor, Kayode Fayemi, during a special thanksgiving service and reception to mark his 55th birthday on Sunday disclosed that his parents never knew he would survive infancy.

According to him, his parents named him Folorunso meaning ‘left in God’s care’ because they were not sure he would survive the childhood stage.

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

“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.”

Fayemi added: “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.”
