January 6th marks the birthday of Pastor Benjamin Oko, the former Zonal Coordinator of FECA Nigeria Abia Zone during the 2016-2018 leadership tenure. The Abia Zone Media Coordinator shared a heartfelt tribute that captures his enduring impact across the region. The message acknowledges the undeniable impacts Pastor Oko made in the lives of many during his time as zonal coordinator, emphasizing how he touched lives and inspired gratitude for saying yes to the FECA vision and laboring faithfully for it. His genuine passion for human capital development proved contagious, evident in the lives of people he trained while serving in that capacity.
Pastor Oko also demonstrated discipline and consistency with kingdom principles, which propelled him to answer the call to apostleship. The zone expressed deep appreciation for his counsels and love for Abia Zone, declaring that he shall never lack the gift of men. During his 2016-2018 leadership, he oversaw more than eight chapters including Aba, Umuahia, and Umuakpara, established a leadership academy that trained over 200 executives, successfully hosted zonal conventions, built prayer infrastructure through established prayer coordinates, and created a robust pipeline for leaders through youth leadership programs and retreats. Abia Zone, recognized as FECA's Eastern Region powerhouse with over 15 chapters, benefited greatly from Pastor Oko's tenure that bridged traditional and emerging leaders during national restructuring.
His influence endures through his human capital focus via personal mentoring legacy, apostolic transition from coordinator to higher calling, discipline modeling of kingdom principles, and counsel culture that current executives still seek. Today as Apostle, Pastor Oko continues spiritual influence over Abia Zone while current Zonal Coordinator Kingsley Uttah builds administratively. Happy Birthday Apostle Benjamin Oko! Your light shines brighter!
