By Agency Report

The Superintendent of the Deeper Life Christian Ministry, Pastor William Folorunso Kumuyi, and the founder of Daystar Christian Ministry, Pastor Sam Adeyemi, have relocated abroad, even though Adeyemi has explained why he did so.

While Pastor Adeyemi relocated to the United States of America with his wife, Nike, Pastor Kumuyi relocated to London, United Kingdom.

Pastor Adeyemi, in a podcast with popular broadcaster, Seun Okinbaloye, said he would have returned to Nigeria, but he always had frightening dreams whenever he decided to travel back, hence his decison to stay back.

Pastor Kumuyi, according to a report by The National Waves, relocated abroad due to old age. The report quoted a source who said: “He (Kumuyi) is 82 and requires good medical care; hence, he travelled to the UK.”

The source also said Pastor Kumuyi needed a place where he would rest without being disturbed or distracted. Kumuyi is seen in a short clip, explaining to his interviewer that he’s now based in London.

It would be recalled that in the buildup to the 2023 general election, the founder of the House on the Rock, Pastor Paul Adefarasin, advised his congregation to have a ‘Plan B’ because of the security situation then in Nigeria.

Adefarasin explained that his wife had travelled abroad, to prepare a place for them, as the security situation might get worse.(Source: The Conclave)
