The book reviewer, Bishop Godwin Soraoye, stated that the book is another light that can illustrate and brighten the way for anyone in darkness.
Soraoye explained that the book is a map and compass that gives to the traveller.
Also, the chairman of the occasion, High Chief Michael Johnny (represented by Otitiri Elvis), described the book as the hand of God.
Speaking on the reason he wrote the book, Ubebe said; “The inspiration to write this book “When God remembers a man” was born when I was still writing the book “Oh God Change My Story” in the year 2015.
According to him the book centers on how God remembered different people on different occasions and places which led to the transformation or change of their situations or stories.
“God is still in the business of remembering people who hold unto him in faith. If he remembered Noah, Hannah, Joseph; Mordechai and even Vincent Tamara-ebi Brakoru and change your story to glory if you believe and hold on to him. Remember, He is God of yesterdays, today and forever,” he concluded.
