Having enjoyed a successful career as an actor and accomplished banker, he accepted the call into full-time ministry as a minister of the Gospel in 1996. In the same year, he was commissioned by the House on the Rock, Lagos to pioneer its first parish outside the African continent to be known as the London Lighthouse.

Leaving for the unknown, he moved his family over to England to start this great work. With membership of about 25 people at the time, he set about his task.

House On The Rock, London, since that time, has grown tremendously from strength to strength and currently has a congregational strength of about 600 regular worshippers who love the Lord.


    
Pastor O, as he is fondly called, is a pastor at heart, a natural father and uncompromisingly dedicated to teaching the word of God. He believes in preaching the Gospel without hypocrisy and dissimulation. His undying passion is that God’s people should behold God's glory through the undiluted ministry of His word and as they do so, they in turn might become transformed to that same image. His Life, humble persona and outlook epitomize that of a true servant of the most high God. He is happily married to Carol and they have two children.
