Kumuyi Directs Oyedepo to Reserved Pulpit at Crusade

On August 29, 2026, Pastor WF Kumuyi made a notable appearance at the Global Crusade with Kumuyi (GCK) in Ota, Ogun State, where he preached on the theme "Total Transformation Through Christ." A significant moment occurred when Kumuyi directed Oyedepo, the founder of Living Faith Church (Winners' Chapel), to use his reserved pulpit instead of the guest stand. Initially, a protocol officer attempted to guide Oyedepo to the guest pulpit, but he paused and turned back to Kumuyi, who then signaled for him to proceed to his own pulpit.

This rare gesture was seen as a sign of deep mutual respect between the two influential church leaders. The incident quickly gained traction on social media, with many viewers interpreting it as a historic moment for unity within Nigeria's Christian community.
