The Serving Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church (CGCC), Pastor Tunde Bakare, has said that he was surprised when he recently got a call from Pastor Folu Adeboye, the wife of the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye.
He made this statement during a gathering with his followers at the Atlanta 2022: Gathering of Sons and Daughters in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, on Sunday, which was monitored by PUNCH.
According to the cleric, Mrs Adeboye wanted to inquire about his health but he didn’t know who it was when she first sent him a message. However, he later called the number and was shocked when Mrs Adeboye introduced herself to him.
He said, “I remember that I was on a London highway one day when Mrs Adeboye called. She had sent a text and I think she also made phone calls but I didn’t know who (it was).
“So, I placed a phone call and said ‘good afternoon, I got a text from this number.’ She said, ‘Haa, don’t you know me again?’ I said, ‘Who is speaking?’ and she mentioned her name. My mouth is too small to call her by name.
“I almost collapsed. I said, ‘ma, I didn’t know it was you.’ She said, ‘Well, we were watching television and I saw you using a walking stick; I want to know that you are well.’ I said it was an illustrated sermon.”
Bakare added that the call from Mrs Adeboye made him realise that people cared about him.
He said, “So, you can see that they care about me and I do care about them.”
The three-day event, organised by the CGCC Diaspora Family Fellowship, was themed, ‘Global Mission and Globalisation: Avenues for expressing the dominion mandate.’
