Oba Adewale Shotobi, Ayangburen of Ikorodu, Receives Ikorodu Liberty 2024 Team’s Official Visit
…Promised to attend the gathering
~By Oluwaseun Fabiyi
On Wednesday 9th October 2024 the NCC Liberty Team paid a courtesy visit to the Ayangburen of Ikoroduland’s palace, recognizing Oba Adewale Shotobi’s sovereignty and seeking his blessings, thereby honoring the time-honored Yoruba tradition of showing respect to deserving individuals
This visit strengthens ties between Nigerians and community leaders, inspiring Christian religious leaders and Nigerians to advocate for unity and social cohesion nationwide
Given New Covenant Church worldwide’s decision to host the Liberty crusades program in Ikorodu, the courtesy visit’s importance cannot be overstated
Ahead of Liberty International’s 25th Anniversary celebrations, a dignified delegation paid a courtesy visit to the Oba, presenting particulars of the planned Liberty programme, which was met with keen enthusiasm.
Oba Shotobi reflected on his personal journey, combining his Muslim upbringing with a Methodist primary school education. He displayed a deep commitment to the Lord and His mission, selecting the Methodist Church for his thanksgiving service. Additionally, he shared experiences partnering with RCCG, Deeper Christian Life, and KICC ministries in Ikorodu for outreach initiatives.
He attentively awaited the Liberty team’s presentation, where they outlined strategic plans for Ikorodu’s development, and expressed satisfaction that the program had reached Ikorodu following 25 years of engagement in locations such as Badagry and Epe.
Following the team’s presentation, the Ayangburen confirmed his attendance and committed to boosting NCC Liberty’s promotional initiatives to ensure strong event attendance.
He will facilitate direct communication with Ikorodu General Hospital to support Liberty’s medical requirements. He requested the team to remain patient regarding their land allocation request.
Honestly, the palace visit by the Liberty team reveals prior divine intervention on their behalf
Their conviction holds that the Lord personally initiated and sustains the Liberty programme, guiding its preparation and unfolding experience. This conviction should hearten and motivate us, recognizing that our collective efforts are ultimately in service to the Lord Jesus Christ, who actively works within and through us.
community ruler’s backing and approval are essential for hosting a five-day Christian spiritual empowerment program in the Ikorodu area
New Covenant Church worldwide’s 2024 Liberty program is set to hold at Ikorodu Town Hall, Olubi Street off Ayangburen Road, commencing on October 30 and concluding on November 3, 2024.
The Liberty program’s annual event features a diverse range of activities, including crusades, medical aid, empowerment initiatives, salvation services, healings, deliverance, complimentary reading glasses, financial empowerment, youth rallies, and uplifting worship, among others.
The Ikorodu Liberty initiative promises to have a profound impact, benefiting all residents of Ikorodu while liberating the community and its environs from deep-seated ancestral spirits that have hindered growth and development in the area
