Dear All:
Thanks for this information ...but the issue goes BEYOND who founded the Church that MIGHT HAVE BECOME RCCG:
(1) when was it NAMED the RCCG, and who so named it - Adeboye or Akindayomi?
(1) when was it NAMED the RCCG, and who so named it - Adeboye or Akindayomi?
(2) what denomination was Adeboye BEFORE he "defected" to RCCG?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Albert Ayeni:You wrote, with some disapproval that:QUOTEPastor Bakare defected from the Redeemed Christian Church of God also because of irreconcilable differences (with the biggest Church in Nigeria).UNQUOTECorrect me if I am wrong: you are NOT Roman Catholic, are you? Yet you are a Christian, are you not?Then you are a member of the Protestant Church whose founder, Martin Luther, DEFECTED from the BIGGEST CHURCH in the world in 1521- the then Roman Catholic Church!Voila!Besides, I do not think that Pastor Adeboye himself was born an RCCG member, since he was the Church's founder. Therefore he too must have DEFECTED from another LARGER Church - maybe the Anglican Church, the LARGEST Church in Nigeria right now?So, please let us look for other reasons against Bakare: not closet Muslim (his mother Abigail was Christian, his Muslim father died when Bakare was aged 2), defector from the largest Church in Nigeria, etcheram, ad nauseum...And there you have it.Bolaji AlukoPS: By the way, Bakare has been plunged into politics, just as Luther was plunged into marriage:"Suddenly, and while I was occupied with far different thoughts," Luther wrote to Wenceslaus Link, "the Lord has plunged me into marriage.""
