Edo Governor Monday Okpebholo Reveals He Started Casting Out Demons at Age 17

Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo reflected on his youth while addressing young congregants. Okpebholo stated that seeing young people active in ministry brought back memories of his teenage years under the influence of the late Archbishop Benson Idahosa, drawing a direct line between his early deliverance work and his administration's current crackdown on violent cult groups and security threats across Edo State.

“When I see young ones standing in the presence of God, I remember at the age of 17 or 18, I had also started casting out demons... So fighting insecurity, most especially cultism, is not a new thing to me. It's something that has been happening.”
— Monday Okpebholo

The lead ministry expressed gratitude for the governor's visit, confirming that special prayers were offered during the service for peace, stability, and economic progress in Edo State.
