Today, His Holiness, The Most Reverend (Dr.) Rufus Okikiola Olubiyi Ositelu, Pope of Church of The Lord, Aladura Worldwide clocked 70.
He was born on Sunday, February 24, 1952 to the family of late Prophet General and founder of the Church of The Lord, Aladura, Prophet Josiah Olunowo Ositelu and Lady Agnes Ositelu.
He is the fourth Primate of the Great Church after the demise of his bother, Primate Gabriel Olusegun Ositelu passed away in 1998 after leading the church for 7 years.
Gabriel Ositelu succeeded Emmanuel Owoade Adeleke Adejobi, a Great Prophet and first assistant to the pioneer Prophet founder who ruled for 24 years after the demise of the founder in 1966.
Under His Holiness, The Most Reverend (Dr.) Rufus Okikiola Olubiyi Ositelu (PhD), the church has witnessed tremendous transformations home and abroad, rising from a conservative number of 4million worshipping congregants to over ten million members scattered all over the world..
Aladura in Yoruba means "Owners of Prayer" or "Prayer fellowship" or "the praying people". They believe in the power and efficacy of prayer and faith healing. They are prophetic in doctrine and a little bit pentecostal in worship.
In this rare encounter with Asabe Afrika TV inside his Ogere, Remo Ogun State, South West Nigeria Secretariat in the early hours of last Thursday, February 17, 2022 the Primate revealed the story of his early life sojourn and why he abandoned his well paying Computer Programming job in Germany (He has two doctorate degrees in Computer Science and Religious Studies) to honor what he termed "an unforeseen calling" in Nigeria twenty four years ago.
His revelation about God, church administration, Christian ethics and life at 70 is quite enlightening.
