Contrary to social media reports, Pastor Idowu Iluyomade was not suspended, but rather transferred to a new parish within the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).
A reliable source told Vanguard that Pastor Iluyomade’s transfer to Throne of Grace Parish in Ebute Metta, Lagos, was not a suspension, but rather a reassignment to a different parish.
The source within the church, said Iluyomade’s transfer was officially announced and confirmed Sunday, June 2, 2024, during the monthly thanksgiving service held across all RCCG parishes.
According to the source, his new role is at the RCCG Region 1, Ebute Metta, where he will serve as the Pastor-in-Charge of elders.
He said: “It is normal to have a change in leadership. Most RCCG pastors go on transfer. The church transfers pastors around and both Pastors Iluyomade and Kanpdei were due for transfers.
“Both of them have done more than eight years as regional pastors and were actually transferred. RCCG pastors can even been transferred abroad. It has nothing to do with any event or politics. They were both due for transfers.”
Efforts to reach Iluyomade for comments yesterday proved abortive.
