In 1981, when I became General Overseer, I went to visit my village. And the whole village gathered together to welcome me. And then they made a request. They thought that now that I was General Overseer, I would know people. At that time, nobody knew me. I knew nobody except God. From my town to Ile-Ife, it's a distance of 8 kilometers. From my town to Ilesha, it's a distance of 20 kilometers. From Ilesha to Ife is a distance of 32 kilometers, because there was no road to link my village to Ife.
Whenever we wanted to go to Ife, we first of all go to Ilesha, 20 kilometers, and then go to Ife, 32 kilometers. We were traveling 52 kilometers instead of 8.
So when I came to town, they said, Sir, will you use your good offices that there be a road between Ife and Ifewara. And the Spirit of God spoke to me, and I said, ask them which direction they want the road. And they pointed the direction. And I lifted my hand and I said, in the mighty name of Jesus, let there be a road. I knew nobody. Nobody knew me. But six months later, the federal government decided to construct a road.
Now today, i'm lifting my hand to all of you, from this moment onward where there was no way before there will be a way.

WATCH: Elon Musk points out that "the fundamental moral flaw of the left is empathy for the criminals and not empathy for the victims." "It's undermining the people's faith in the legal system. It needs to stop."
