Pastor Enoch Adeboye

Enoch A. Adeboye is a pastor from Nigeria and head of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG). Before joining the clergy Adeboye was a mathematics lecturer, and worked at the universities of Lagos and Ilorin; he has PhD in applied mathematics from Lagos. After he joined the RCCG he began working to translate the sermons of its then pastor and founder, Rev. Akindayomi, from Yoruba into English.
In 1981 Adeboye became General Overseer of the RCCG, making him head of the Church, after the death of Akindayomi 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.
The Church, which was not well known before Adeboye took charge, now claims branches in over a hundred countries, including more than 14,000 in Nigeria. Adeboye has stated that his aim is to put a church within five minutes of every person on Earth.
In 2008 Newsweek magazine named Adeboye one of the fifty most powerful people in the world. He is married to Foluke Adeboye, also a pastor, with whom he has children.
