Jimmy Odukoya has succeeded his late father as Fountain of Life Senior Pastor.
Glamtush reports that Jimmy Odukoya, the first son of late Bimbo and Taiwo Odukoya, has been named as the senior pastor of the Fountain of Life Church, Ilupeju, Lagos.
This online platform understands that the announcement was made during the church service today, Sunday, September 17.
Addressing the congregation, Rotimi Okpaise, a pastor, said the late Taiwo Odukoya confided in the board of trustees (BoT) members about the succession plan before he died.
