Pastor Ifeoluwa Akindayomi Dies At Age 62 by Nobody: 10:30am On Nov 04, 2025
Pastor Ifeoluwa Akindayomi, the last born of the founder of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pa Josiah Akindayomi has died. He was 62 years old.

He died on Sunday November 2.

His death came about 45 years after that of his father and 7 months after the transition of his elder brother, Pastor Kolade Akindayomi, who died on May 4 this year.

A close family friend of the late Ifeoluwa Akindayomi told Church Times that his death was shocking and too sudden
‘Nobody would have thought he would die barely 24 hours after he was chairman of a wedding ceremony..

The source said “he was very okay and had no sign of any illness. For him to have served as chairman of a wedding a day before he died was clear indication that he was okay to many of us. But the unexpected did happen.”

On how he died, the source said “he had gone for a prayer walk on Sunday morning and came back to his house at the RCCG Camp and was about to prepare for the Sunday service when he missed his steps and fell headlong, hitting his head on a sharp object in the house. He sustained injury from the fall and passed out. Before he could be helped to the hospital the worst had happened.”

Until his death, Pastor Ifeoluwa Akindayomi was Assistant Provincial Pastor of Ogun Province 5 of the RCCG. He also owned a vibrant printing press.

His wife and children have since relocated abroad according to the source, “Leaving only him in Nigeria.”

The family according to the source wanted him to come over to stay with them in Canada where they live. But he insisted on living in Nigeria because of his business and the ministry work

He was said to have expressed a lot of worry that his family was not staying with him in Nigeria and had even tried to persuade his son to come back home so he could help manage the family business.

I thought Pastor EA Adeboye was the founder of The RCCG.

No ma. He was an interpreter to the founder who anointed him, and handed over the church to him before GOD used him to take the church to higher levels.

RIP to him. Nigerians needs to learn to de risk their homes. Too many are dying due to slip and falls (most especially in bathrooms). This is even more important the older you get.

As you grow older take it easy with how you walk around , my dad died from a fall 5 years ago just like this Pastor, though he was 85 years at that time.

Passing on does not negate the fact that he might have died of Ill health

May his soul rest in peace and condolence to the bereaved...

It's wrong for husband and wife to live apart, what is the essence of marriage, he died sad and lonely, I feel bad for him. May his gentle soul rest in peace
Re: Pastor Ifeoluwa Akindayomi Dies At Age 62 by Eminent2025: 6:43pm On Nov 04, 2025
Is like someone somewhere is trying to clear these family so that no one will drag church property in future

THE TITLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE PASTOR DIED DUE TO LONELINESS AND DEPRESSION BECAUSE ONLY HIM CANT BE LIVING A BIG HOUSE AND HAVE NO ONE TO TALK TO OR SHARE TIKES WITH.

Yeah right! 🙄🙄🙄

Passing on is a term used to describe the deaths of the elderly who died of natural causes. A 62-year-old's death is rarely natural, but due to illness or unfortunate circumstances. undecided

May his soul rest on. What a sad story.
He misses his wife and children especially his son.

NO

RCCG has a white garment foundation

The founder attended THE ETERNAL SACRED ORDER OF THE CHERUBIM AND SERAPHIM for several years before leaving to set up RCCG

Daddy Adeboye really helped grow the church

No he is not. He was the one that was interpreting for the founder when the founder Pa Akindayomi was still alive. Pa Akindayomi named Pst EA Adeboye as is Successor

Was he not the one who sent his family abroad, so why is he crying that his son does not want to come back to Nigeria?

That is the mistake a lot of people are making but they have not yet realised that they are making a mistake, it is when you want to retire from a business you built with your own sweat that you will finally realise that none of the kids you sent abroad is ready to come back and take over from you undecided

Adeboye and family did not allow this ones enjoy the church money like they did

Wicked souls
Re: Pastor Ifeoluwa Akindayomi Dies At Age 62 by judewrites: 7:01pm On Nov 04, 2025
May the Holy Spirit comfort those who loved him and his family 🙏

Unlike other churches that do hereditary successions, the RCCG founder listened to God and appointed Adeboye.

It's doubtful if the RCCG be were it is today had Akindayomi disobeyed God.
