Polio Priesthood My Way: The Making of the Legend

Life has thrown some hard knocks at Rev. Dr. Abimbola Adewumi Solebo (Nee) Jekayinfa, she was smitten with infantile paralysis 'polio, before she was two years of age, which resulted into a lifelong partial loss of the function of her right leg. According to her mother, it was a terrible time in the milestone of her life. And this was just the first in the series of positive and negative events of her personal journey in the first fifty years of her amazing life. Rejection, discrimination, adversity which came as a result of polio was one thing that she had to face. This harrowing experience with polio redefined her life and made her the wonderfully complex person that she is today. At a very young age, she found solace in the word of God, in Psalm 27: 1-14 she learnt that you are who God says you are, and disability is just a thing of the mind, she also learnt that God is able to pick her up even when others abandon her and that God is able to keep her safe, and set her high upon the rocks of life.
