Marketplace Leaders To Gather At Pastors Idowu & Siju Iluyomade’s Church For Special Service
“This is more than a gathering”
The Family Fellowship, the new church founded by Pastors Idowu Iluyomade and his wife, Siju, has scheduled a special service for captains of industry, entrepreneurs, and business leaders.
Themed “Stakeholders in the Marketplace,” the worship session for economic powerhouses is set for Sunday, March 9, 2025, at Oriental Hotel.
“Join us for an impactful service designed for those shaping industries and driving business excellence. It’s time to align your enterprise with divine purpose!” Pastor Idowu Iluyomade announced the upcoming event on Thursday, March 6, 2025, further declaring, “This is more than a gathering—it’s a kingdom mandate for marketplace dominion!”
Before setting up Family Fellowship in January 2025, Pastor Iluyomade led the Redeemed Christian Church of God’s City of David Parish, a congregation known for its high-net-worth worshippers.
He resigned from the much-sought-after parish following his suspension, which came in the wake of widespread public criticism over an extravagant 60th birthday celebration for his wife, Pastor Siju.
The lavish event took place shortly after the tragic demise of a pivotal member and one of the nation’s brightest banking executives, Herbert Wigwe.
Wigwe, the Chief Executive Officer of Access Corporation, along with his wife, Chizoba, their son, Chizzy, and a friend—former President of the Nigerian Exchange, Bimbo Ogunbanjo—lost their lives in a Friday night helicopter crash on February 9, 2024.
Pastor Siju’s talk-of-the-town 60th birthday special, the Diamond Ball, was staged on February 18, 2024, at Eko Hotels and Suites.
