Life and Testimony of Nigeria Pastor's Wives [Read and be Blessed]

                             

Folu Adeboye is the wife of Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God. She is a veteran teacher who started her teaching career as a spinster and in the course of her life acquired various teaching skills. She is fondly called Mummy G.O; Mrs. Adeboye is a strong pillar, a visionary and a wonderful planner who complements the efforts of her husband. Her sterling attributes have helped her husband to obey God's command to become great.

One thing many can attest to is the fact that she loves being modest in all she does; she does not like being flamboyant just like her husband. She carved out a style for herself that has become hers. Any time she is spotted, one is bound to see her mostly dressed in skirt suit and a hat to match; if she is doing traditional, she makes sure that whatever she wears depicts her as a woman of desirable quality.

The hat has become her trademark of sort. Though, she is chauffeur driven all the time, she prefers the not too loud auto mobiles because of her belief. It is also rare to see her wearing jewelries; this also applies to her make-ups.

She is the director of Teen and Children Ministry, RCCG, president of Good Women Ministry, an educationist and a practical theologian.
She is a role model to a lot of women and in great demand in Christian conferences, seminars and programmes in Nigeria and beyond. She is blessed with four biological children.

MARGARET IDAHOSA

She is the widow of the popular late man of God, Most Rev. Prof. Benson Idahosa of the Church of God Mission. She is the presiding bishop of the church. The pretty mother was born on the 29th of July 1943 into the royal lineage of the Benin Kingdom. She is the first female Pentecostal Bishop of a ministry in Africa. She is one of the powerful female pastors Nigeria has produced.

Margaret Idahosa is stylish in every sense; though she's advancing in age, this has in no way altered her love for fashion. The very articulate soul winner many years ago fell in love with American soul singer Anita Baker and ever since she has stuck with her style. A good number of times when you see Margaret Idahosa, it is most certain that she will wear the Anita Baker Hair Style. Though, once in a while she changes this unique style of hers, but even when she's not wearing the Anita Baker's style, she will be wearing another short hair style.

She is also a perfect example of how a virtuous woman should dress.

ESTHER FOLASHADE KUMUYI

She is the wife of the General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi. She was the administrator of the church in London before she became the first lady of the church. The 65 years old who was never married got hooked to her husband on the 13th of October 2010, in London. She was one of the 15 founding members of the church in 1973 and she became the lucky wife of the handsome preacher after his late wife, Biodun Kumuyi died in 2009.

And just like where she resided before the arrow of Pastor Kumuyi pierced her heart, she is known to be a conservative to the core. Her dress sense is unadventurous yet sits well on her. Her trademark however is her hat which we learnt can take a fortune off her purse. She does not like jewelries at all; and this is said to be because of her belief that has been with her for over four decades. Those who know her claimed she would have loved to be at the background but her union with Pastor Kumuyi eroded this love of hers.

TOYIN GEORGE ADEGBOYE

Toyin is the wife of the founder of Rhema Chapel International, Rev. George Adegboye. She is a soft- spoken woman who loves to co-ordinate the affairs of the church silently, from the background.

For some months, the woman of God battled with an unexplainable illness but she came out victorious. Faith Oyedepo played a vital role in her husband's ministry. In her teachings, she focuses on the family, marriage and healing.

Faith Oyedopo has a unique style that has not changed for many years. She juggles between skirt suit and traditional wears. Though, she does not like her dressing to be on the loud side, that however is not the same with her love for jewelries; the better half of the flamboyant pastor likes to expend a lot on jewelries. Another thing that is noticeable about Pastor Faith is her hair. She likes her hair short and hardly would you see her in long hair. But if you think she likes fixing the hair on her head then you got it totally wrong. Pastor Faith has a mannequin that she sends to her hair stylist who in turn makes hair on a wig. The wig will then be taken to her to wear. This became her style after her battle with ill heath, we were told. She drives all the flamboyant cars her husband drives and she has no apology for living a good life. She and her husband are blessed with four children-David Jr. Isaac, Love and Joy.
