President Bola Tinubu has described the founder and General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, as a remarkable man of God whose unwavering faith and dedication have shaped one of the country’s most influential Christian ministries for over five decades.
The President, in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, on Saturday congratulated Kumuyi on his 85th birthday.
He praised the Christian leader’s impact on believers across Nigeria and the world, noting that his voice, writings, and ministry had reached far beyond the church.
“As the convener of Global Crusade with Kumuyi, your voice has reached beyond the church walls and national borders, bringing hope and encouragement to millions across the world.
“Your writings have illuminated minds, inspired hearts, and provided timeless guidance to those seeking truth and purpose,” Tinubu said.
He also noted that Kumuyi’s ministry had made a generational impact on families and leadership.
The President noted, “Your ministry and influence have transformed lives, restored families, inspired leaders, and strengthened the faith of generations of believers.”
President Tinubu prayed for Kumuyi’s continued health and vitality, saying, “On this special day, I pray that Almighty God continues to grant you strength, divine health, peace, and abundant grace.”
Kumuyi, born on June 6, 1941, in Erin-Ijesha, Osun State, founded the Deeper Life Bible Church in 1973 as a campus fellowship at the University of Lagos, where he was a mathematics lecturer.
The ministry has since grown into one of the largest Pentecostal denominations in Africa, with congregations in over 150 countries.
Known for his strict doctrinal standards, evangelistic fervour, and personal discipline, Kumuyi has remained one of the most respected voices in African Christianity.
