Redeemed Church Founder’s Son Is Dead

Redeemed Christian Church of God founder, Rev. Josiah Akindayomi’s Son, Pastor Ifeoluwa is dead. He was 63 years old. He died on Sunday November 2.

His death came about 45 years after that of his father and 7 months after the transition of his elder brother, Pastor Kolade Akindayomi, who died on May 4 this year.

A close family friend said: ‘Nobody would have thought he would die barely 24 hours after he was chairman of a wedding ceremony. He was very okay and had no sign of any illness. For him to have served as chairman of a wedding a day before he died was a clear indication that he was okay to many of us. But the unexpected did happen.”

“He had gone for a prayer walk on Sunday morning and came back to his house at the RCCG Camp and was about to prepare for the Sunday service when he missed his steps and fell headlong, hitting his head on a sharp object in the house. He sustained injury from the fall and passed out. Before he could be helped to the hospital the worst had happened.”

Until his death, Pastor Ifeoluwa Akindayomi was Assistant Provincial Pastor of Ogun Province 5 of the RCCG. He also owned a  printing press.
