“I came to honor my son; I’ve known him for a long time; he began prophesying early in his ministry and has proven to be a rare messenger of God; I haven’t seen him in 20 years.”

I want to wish him more years and success. Primate Ayodele is the number one prophet in Nigeria,” he said.

Reacting to the surprise appearance of Chief Adebanjo, Primate Ayodele expressed heartfelt gratitude to the nonagenarian for coming to celebrate him, while talking about how far their relationship has come.

Going down the memory lane, Primate Ayodele noted that he used to go to Pa Adebanjo’s house to eat at the early stage of his ministry and that he was very instrumental to him and his ministry.

“Baba Adebanjo’s impact in my ministry cannot be underestimated. I remember during the early days of my ministry when I used to go to his house to eat. Whenever I visit him, we talk for hours till the late hours of the night, we were very close and enjoyed a relationship of a father and son.

“I don’t take his surprise appearance for granted, I pray God strengthens him, give him long life so he can reap the fruit of his labour.”
