Man's Encounter with Pastor Monday Omokaro
Joshua Ogbaneme, a relationship coach, stated that the cleric has finished his course on earth and gone beyond for his great reward. In a Facebook post on May 20, Joshua recounted his very old encounter with the late cleric, who he described as a transformational leader who turns potential into purpose.
"God's servant has finished his course and has gone to his great reward on 19th May 2026, the day Tuesday DLSO Vigils had a pause in Benin City. I remember Pst. for many things as a transformational leader, turning potential to purpose. As far back as 2008, during DLSO Vigils, the moment Pastor Omokaro sees me in a meeting, he insistently instructs me to lead the chorus. 'Police, go and lead us in choruses' he would say. He saw something in me I couldn't see in myself – a praise worship minister," Joshua wrote.
Joshua stressed the influence and positive impact Pastor Monday had on people's lives, adding that the cleric was completely selfless. "Anyone who knows him, can say the same. He is quick to see potential. Call. Ministry. Oil. Something suddenly shifts in your thinking and self-perception when he lays his hands on you. Pastor Omokaro was completely selfless. Any vibrant youth, young adult, or rising star in DLBC Edo State who is excelling in life and ministry can trace the mark of Pastor on them, being the State Youth Coordinator. Pastor taught us to pray as our future depends on it."
