Bishop David Olatunji Abioye and Bishop Thomas Aremu , Vice Presidents of the Living Faith Church will be taking their exit out of service in the Liberation Commission also known as the Living Faith Church Worldwide in October 2024 based on the rules of the Mandate which is the Constitution or operational manual of the Liberation Commission.

Ekwutosblog reports that According to a recent announcement, Bishop Thomas Aremu’s valedictory service will take place at LFC Basorun, Ibadan, Oyo State on Tuesday, 15th of October 2024. Also according to sources, Bishop David Abioye’s valedictory service is scheduled to hold in Durumi, Abuja on Friday 18th October 2024.

Bishop Abioye who first met Bishop Oyedepo in 1979 and has been his right hand man since then was sent out to pastor one of the 5 pioneer branches in 1987. Furthermore, he was consecrated in 1993 in Garden of Faith, Barnawa, Kaduna at the age of 32 as the youngest Bishop of a full fledged church in recorded history.

On the other hand, Bishop Aremu who joined the ministry full-time after serving as an accountant in secular organizations is the only one among the 7 Bishops consecrated in November 1999 at Garden of Faith, Kaduna that have remained till date. It is an epoch making event as it marks the very first time that pastors who have served meritoriously in the Living Faith Church will be openly celebrated on retirement.

According to the revised Mandate, the new age of retirement which was formerly 60 is now 58. Only the Founder will have the privilege of a lifetime of service after which every future leader of the Commission will serve for one term or a maximum of 2 terms of 7 years each subject to the approval of the Board of Trustees.

This thus marks a new phase in the operations of this young Church of less than 5 decades. Jesus is Lord!

UK-based clergyman Pastor Tobi Adegboyega has retaliated against Nigerian critics who have condemned his penchant for luxury items, urging greater scrutiny of affluent pastors in the country.

In a scathing statement, Adegboyega, renowned for his extravagant lifestyle, addressed the backlash over his designer attire and lavish automobiles. Drawing parallels with Nigerian pastors who own private jets, he questioned why the public overlooks their extravagant assets while targeting him.

“Nigerians should permit me to wear what I desire,” Adegboyega declared. “Their pastors own private jets. Why not scrutinize their possessions instead of mine?”

The outspoken pastor accused Nigerian pastors of concealing their wealth.

Adegboyega dismissed concerns about returning to Nigeria despite the criticisms. Highlighting his simplicity beneath the surface, he added, “I am not intimidated by the prospect of returning to Nigeria, as I can survive with minimal possessions.”

The pastor’s remarks have sparked widespread debate, reigniting discussions about the opulent lifestyles of religious leaders and their accountability to their congregations. Adegboyega, who leads the Salvation Proclaimers Anointed Church (SPAC Nation) in London, has long been a polarizing figure for his flashy displays of wealth and unconventional approach to ministry.

Pastor Tobi Adegboyega Defends Lavish Lifestyle as a Strategy to Inspire Youth

Ekwutosblog has gathered that UK-based Nigerian pastor Tobi Adegboyega has defended his penchant for luxury fashion and lavish living, describing it as a deliberate strategy to connect with the younger generation.

In a recent interview with the BBC, the founder of SPAC Nation church explained that his choice of attire is meant to inspire rather than alienate.

“I put on what is right, what connects to the generation I’m speaking to, so they are not attracted to drug dealers,” Adegboyega said, addressing criticism of his flamboyant lifestyle.

The charismatic preacher, often seen wearing designer clothing and accessories, said his image aligns with his mission to engage young people and steer them away from destructive paths.

SPAC Nation, under his leadership, has been credited with helping to remove hundreds of knives from UK streets and tackling gun violence.

However, Adegboyega’s public persona has come under scrutiny amid allegations of financial impropriety and immigration violations.

Reports suggest he lost a legal battle to remain in the UK after overstaying his visitor’s visa, which he obtained upon arriving in the country in 2005.

Adegboyega attributed his failure to regularise his stay to an oversight.
