The couple has been together for 40 years doing God’s business. Just yesterday, the man of God celebrated his 73rd birthday and his wife took to her Facebook page to share a throwback photo of herself and her husband way back. The photo showed the couple in their ‘humble days’ riding an old car with the RCCG Ebutte Meta logo on it.

Pastor Adeboye had his BSc in Mathematics at University of Nigeria Nsukka and subsequently got his PhD in applied mathematics from the University of Lagos.
He worked as a lecturer in mathematics at the universities of Lagos and Ilorin. After joining the RCCG, he began working to translate the sermons of its then pastor and founder, Rev Josiah Olufemi Akindayomi, from Yoruba into English.
General Overseer of the church, taking over from Papa Akindayomi, who had died the previous year.
For three years he filled the role part-time, still lecturing at Ilorin, until giving up his university position to preach full-time.
