The General Overseer of Goshen Freedom Tabernacle (GFT), Effurun, Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State, Prophet Austin Ariole JP, on Sunday narrated how he escaped gunshots fired by suspected killer herdsmen along the Lokoja–Abuja Road while returning to Delta State, as the church marked its 6th anniversary and thanksgiving service.
The cleric made the revelation during his sermon at the 6th annual anniversary/thanksgiving service held in Effurun.
The theme of the thanksgiving was “From Glory to Greater Glory.”
According to him, “As I was driving with a friend who was in the front seat, before we knew what was happening, we were already in their midst. They raised and cocked their gun to shoot, but it refused to release.
“All I remember is that I finished the speedometer. That was how we escaped from the hands of the herdsmen.”
Prophet Ariole, who spoke on the theme, said Nigeria is a country gradually falling apart and stressed that, “It is only by the mercies of God that we are not consumed.”
