Tolu Odukoya-Ijogun, the eldest daughter of the late founder of The Fountain of Life Church, Pastor Taiwo Odukoya, candidly expressed her apprehension about embracing the position of Associate Senior Pastor.
This revelation came to light through an Instagram post she shared on a Saturday, coinciding with her official installation as the Associate Senior Pastor of the church. Simultaneously, her brother, Jimmy Odukoya, assumed the role of Senior Pastor.
A renowned gospel singer and preacher, Tolu, humbly appealed to the public to continue offering their prayers for both her and Jimmy. She emphasized her commitment to serving as a vessel for the Holy Spirit’s guidance and purpose.
“To say a big Thank you for all the prayers and words of encouragement.… there’s only one thing you can do when confronted with difficult times: Move Forward deepsigh.… ‘ASP’.. Associate Senior Pastor of TFOLC…For many who know me, this is something I have run away from, but God has kept his hand on me despite me.
“So Right now, I’m yielded to be used entirely for His glory… these are heavy, power it’s by the Holy Spirit, so Holy Spirit over to you… please don’t stop praying for @iamthatpj and me. We need your prayers now more than ever before,” she wrote.
Tolu, born in Lagos on September 20, 1985, is a multi-talented individual. She serves as a worship leader, a recording artist, and the founder of the Real Talk Women Initiative (RTWNI), an online community that boasts thousands of devoted women who come together in prayer.
Tolu is happily married to Olumide Ijogun, a successful entrepreneur and businessman. Together, they share a beautiful family, which includes three wonderful children.
