“They have all been miraculous. If you check, I ran for governor in a party that was less than one year old. When I started in 2003, I won the election.

“They declared somebody else. I went to court. Everybody said it is impossible, that there is no way and that it had never happened before.

“After three years, the court declared me the winner. I was sworn in. Six months later, I was impeached alongside Fayose and Dariye. I went to court again, and I became the first governor to come back from impeachment. I was the first governor to win through the court, first to come back from impeachment.

“I can go on and on to tell you so many things that have happened in this journey that one can say is a miracle.

“I am looking forward to the next miracle next year, to complete the miraculous journey of my political journey.”
