Redeemed Pastor Agu Irukwu Faces Criticism Over Burial Controversy

Agu Irukwu, a pastor at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Jesus House, London, has been heavily criticized for allegedly disregarding a court order related to the burial of the late Chief Gabriel Olumuyiwa Akinboro. The controversy has reportedly caused significant division within the Akinboro family.

Critics have called on Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of RCCG, to investigate the actions of Pastor Irukwu, alleging that his behavior has tarnished the church’s reputation. Among the accusations is that Irukwu ignored two pending litigations concerning the late chief’s burial and unilaterally organized the funeral outside the Egba West Anglican Church, where Chief Akinboro was a dedicated member and trustee. The pending court cases in the various suits AB/781/2024 before Justice O.O Majekodunmi, adjourned to 18th February 2025, suit MA/42/2024, and suit AB/839/2024.

Allegations of Personal Bias and Misconduct

Irukwu’s actions are said to have excluded many of the late chief’s family members, including his children, wives, siblings, nieces, and nephews, from participating in the burial. Critics claim his decisions were influenced by his relationship with Abiola Obileye, a deaconess at Jesus House, in London.

The allegations further extend to personal misconduct, with claims that Irukwu was involved in facilitating Abiola’s divorce from her former husband, Tunde Obileye, under questionable circumstances. Reports suggest that their relationship began before Abiola’s divorce and has continued thereafter.

Calls for Accountability

Members of the Akinboro family and others in the community are demanding that Pastor Irukwu be held accountable for his actions. They allege that he disregarded Chief Akinboro’s wishes to be buried at the cemetery of his Anglican Church, a decision described as disrespectful and divisive.

Furthermore, concerns have been raised about Pastor Irukwu’s leadership and the potential misuse of his position within the RCCG. Critics argue that instead of fostering unity, his actions have exacerbated tensions within the Akinboro family.

A Call to Action

Given the gravity of these allegations, there are calls for RCCG leadership to address the matter and ensure that the church’s principles of fairness, integrity, and respect are upheld. The situation highlights the need for transparency and accountability in leadership roles, particularly within faith-based organizations.
