The success recorded at the just concluded third edition of the annual music and prayer programme, Praise God with the Twins (PGWT), has certainly indicated that the unique one-day event has come to stay.
The programme which is the largest gathering of singing twins in Nigeria was conceived to fulfil two purposes; pray for Nigeria and those hoping to have their own children.
Like the previous edition, which was star-studded, some of the stars on parade have become a part of the vision by their dedication to always attend, while others were part of the unique event for the first time.
According to the conveners, Taiwo and Kenny Jones Olayiwola, the vision is to intercede for Nigeria in another way and because twin are special gifts from God, it was decided that a gathering of twins interceding with songs together with few friends and mentors in the music industry will do good for Nigeria.
This year’s edition had in attendance dignitaries like; Evangelist Ebenezer Obey-Fabiyi, who has become a regular feature at the event, Pastor Mrs. Folu Adeboye (Mummy GO), who was ably represented by Pastor Mrs. Adeola Mensah one of her special assistants; Pastor Mrs. Kalejaiye, who came to represent her husband Pastor J.T. Kalejaiye; Hafeez Oyetoro (Simply Saka); Hon. Olabimjo Lagos State Special Adviser on Civic Engagement and many others.
PGWT 2018 was tagged “Heal Our Land” and it was to intercede for Nigeria this time around through music and praise, since the conveners of the event are of the strong believe that where prayers tarries, praise intercedes.
This is the reason the annual programme of more songs and less prayer for the country was established.
