Pa Elton was a mentor to Benson Idahosa for many years and the relationship was crucial in the early growth and expansion of Idahosa’s ministry. As Benson Idahosa once recalled: Thereafter, Pa Elton and I began to work together when I went to look for him at Ilesa, he adopted me as a son to work with. . . .Then Elton introduced me to many ministries on planet earth.”
