At this year annual special crusade themed: “My Story To Glory” the governor and the two governorship candidates joined hundreds of thousands from every parts of the world including United States, Canada, Europe and several African countries to witness the overwhelming flow of testimonies as heavens opened up and rained down spiritual blessings on many faith believers present.

The Manna Voices International Choir, as well as the Children Orchestra and other anointed guest artistes, further increased the spiritual tempo of the evening with their music ministration.

The atmosphere became charged when the General Overseer of the ministry, Bishop Kwakpovwe, was ushered to the podium. In his usual charismatic style of ministration, Bishop Kwakpovwe prepared the hearts of the teeming worshippers to receive from God.

His dynamic ministration was accentuated with a strong measure of boldness and rare confidence, in expounding the indelible truths contained in the Word of God as the only path of Man to daily communication with God.

His message spewing from the pulpit drew many to a tearful conviction and deep hunger for a real encounter with the living God.

This included millions of others from various parts of the world who joined the crusade through live streaming as captured by numerous state of the art cameras and most sophisticated drones captured the aerial perspective of the atmosphere at the iconic venue.
