Pastor Idowu Iluyomade, the suspended pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, City of David Parish, has launched a new ministry in Lagos.
In a video that went viral on Monday morning, Iluyomade was seen celebrating with members during the inaugural service of the church, The Family Fellowship, held at the Civic Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos.
Announcing the new ministry on Instagram, Iluyomade invited the public to attend the fellowship.
He wrote, “The Family Fellowship invites you specially. Join us tomorrow at the Civic Centre for a special time in the Lord’s presence. Promises to be a great experience.”
Iluyomade, formerly the senior pastor of City of David Parish, was suspended by RCCG in 2024 after his wife, Pastor Siju, hosted an elaborate 60th birthday celebration shortly after the tragic death of Herbert Wigwe, a prominent church member and former CEO of Access Bank, along with his wife and son.
Iluyomade was later moved to the Throne of Grace, Ebute Metta headquarters of the church after he was suspended for three months
He subsequently resigned as a pastor of the RCCG.
