The glamorous event took place on
Tuesday, 14th of February 2023 at his Lagos church premises, also to mark the end of the prophet’s 17-day appreciation and philanthropic activities which started on Sunday, 29th Of January 2023.

Those who graced the occasion with their presence were the President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Alhaji Ibrahim Gusau who declared the event opened, the Chairman of the National Drugs Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), General Buba Marwa, well liked gospel singer, Yinka Alaseyori who ministered to the crowd with her euphonious voice, comedian Ayo Ajewole A.K.A.

Alhaji Ibrahim Gusau, in his opening remark, described Primate Ayodele as a true friend who has actually supported the football federation, he however mentioned that Primate Ayodele has played a major role in his emergence as the NFF president.

According to him, ‘’One journalist sent me a video of Primate Ayodele during a press conference speaking about the election in NFF. He mentioned some contestants and said finally to him, the person that will become the president is Ibrahim Gusau.

“The journalist was surprised because I am not a Christian and didn’t know the prophet, as I don’t even stay in Lagos. Consistently, he stood on his word whenever he gives prophecies concerning football and to God be the glory, the election came, and I won.

“I felt I should find time to appreciate the man of God for his support. He visited me in Abuja, and we spoke and ate together, so there is no way he will have an occasion like this. I will not be there, it means I don’t appreciate God. We will continually ask for your prayers and will not disappoint you,’’ he said.

Moreover, the NDLEA Chairman, retired Brigadier-General Buba Marwa who was ably represented said, he was flabbergasted at many gifts Primate Ayodele shared, while noting that the man of God will be the first to show practical love on Valentine’s Day despite the scarcity crisis in the country. He therefore requested that man of God should organise programmes that will enable the support of the NDLEA.

He also added,  ‘’General Buba Marwa is very interested in working with you, and he has asked me to say it publicly that you should set a motion, programmes that will make the NDLEA join you. This programme on a day like this when everyone is showing love, especially at a time like this when there is scarcity, we need to appreciate Primate Ayodele for showing practical love, I have been hearing happy Valentine’s Day since morning, but this is the first practical one I am seeing,’’ .

The most exciting moment of the event was when the three church members, two journalists including an editor with The Sun Newspaper and the prophet’s media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, were called out for a car gift.

Osho Oluwatosin, the Primate’s media aide, least expected a car gift from the man of God. He was amazed when he was called to receive his car gift from the Prophet.

Likewise, the two accountants of the church who were also beneficiaries were unable to control their feeling when Primate Ayodele announced their names, the man of God however appreciated them for their fidelity and transparency through the years and rewarded their good deeds.

In addition, cash empowerments were given to 11 journalists, cheque of N200,000 each was presented to them for supporting the man of God through the years.

The Youth President of the church, a beneficiary named Monday Sunday was so excited and was shedding tears of joy, when his name was called by the man of God. The man of God testified that he has been a committed church  and has given his best whenever he was needed.

Also, Primate Ayodele is a compassionate man, a Phillantrophist, always ready to give to the needy promised to pay the sum of N350,000 for one of the empowered journalists who has sight problem.

The widows and less privileged were not left out of the Empowerment program as some of them were given accommodation fees, food items,  grinding machines, and home accessories and so on.

The youths also benefited from the Empowerment as about 23 students were given scholarships to study in tertiary institutions.

Apart from all these, other dedicated church members were given tricycles and mini-buses for their steadfastness and support to the church.

Nevertheless, Primate Ayodele extended his generosity yonder, as he presented cheques to some churches to purchase landed properties.
