"God Proved Himself at this Year's Galilee" – VSE Adebayo Adekoya

The Ondo State Arch Diocesan Head and Shepherd in Charge of CCC Ondo State Arch Diocesan Headquarters, Agunloye Cathedral, Agunloye Lane, Off Ondo Road, Akure, Venerable Superior Evangelist (Prophet) (Dr) Adebayo Adekoya, has stated that God proved Himself beyond imagination when expressing gratitude to God for the resounding success of the 2025 Galilee programme. He made this statement while fielding questions from Elder Bro Goke Williams, Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Gok Communications, at the CCC Grammar School, Aule Road, venue of the Galilee, in Akure.


Affirming that God remains the Alpha and Omega and never puts the church to shame, Adekoya highlighted the disparity between expectations and the actual outcome, saying: "As people expected the outcome of the Galilee programme to be, it wasn't how it turned out. Today, God proved Himself among us as our God, and He did not put our faith to shame, according to Matthew 28, God said we should go and wait for Him at the Galilee for there He would meet us", underscoring God's promise and faithfulness.


In his Easter message, Dr Adekoya affirmed Jesus' death and resurrection, calling on Christians to use the period for genuine repentance and acceptance of Jesus Christ as their Lord and personal Savior. He encouraged believers to follow God's commandments to inherit eternal life, referencing John 13. The CCC Ondo State Arch Diocesan Head emphasised that Jesus' resurrection is a testament to His power and love.


The cleric further thanked God for the event's huge success and, on behalf of Celestians, particularly those who participated in the commemoration of the Passion Week, appreciated  the grace given to celebrate Easter – Jesus' resurrection. He prayed: "All glory and honour we return to God. Our prayer is that all that contributed to the success of the Galilee programme that God in the joy of this year's festive will spare their lives and multiply them in all ramifications in Jesus' name, amen." 


Moreover, the highly revered man of God heartily prayed for God's continued blessings on all celestians, particularly those who contributed to make the event a huge success.


The Galilee programme featured various exciting activities, including an Easter carnival rally, award presentations to participated parishes, fun games, musical jamboree, love feast, and lots more.


This year's event witnessed a huge turnout. The Galilee is an anual gathering of Celestians in Ondo State that celebrates faith and community under the leadership of CCC Ondo State Arch Diocesan Headquarters, Agunloye, Akure.

Has FG Banned UTME?

The viral information that UTME/JAMB has been banned has been rejected by the Federal Government. The press release from the federal ministry of education only modifies some guidelines for admissions into our various tertiary institutions. The viral online report that stated that the Federal Government of Nigeria has put an end to the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) has been debunked by the federal ministry of education.  Though some claimed that the rumoured reform was long overdue and that it was a welcome development in the Nigerian educational sector. As over the years, many students have met much disappointment through the cumbersome methods of securing admissions into our various tertiary institutions. They said the bar of credibility should now be raised in the organisation of ordinary level examinations across the 36 states of the federation. However, the FG has denied scrapping the UTME requirement for admission into tertiary institutions, following re po...

Queen Naomi Passes out at Security's Net ...Rushes to Hospital, Sister Claimed

The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi’s former wife, Queen Naomi’s sister, Simi Oluwaseyi, says Naomi loses consciousness while being interrogated by the Department of State Service (DSS). Simi made this known on her verified social media handle, breaking silence in a lengthy note. The young lady lamented about the treatment her sister had faced at the hands of law enforcement. Recall that a few days ago, the tragic stampede at the Christmas funfair organised by Queen Naomi at the Islamic High School, Bashorun, Ibadan, claimed the lives of 35 children and left six others injured. Naomi was subsequently arrested, interrogated, and detained. Simi noted that all her sister wanted to do was make children happy for Christmas, but things went sour this year. The young lady also sympathised with those who had lost family members in the unfortunate incident. "All my sister did was trying to put smiles on children’s faces which she has been doing for years. Unfortunately, this year ...
