MINISTRY
He intended to launch a technical company while continuing to teach at the Polytechnic in order to secure his financial future. However, he was moved by what he perceived to be David Oyedepo’s enthusiasm and love for God when they first met at a Christian Student Fellowship in the 1980s. Oyedepo would go on to start Living Faith Church Worldwide. Over time, their bond evolves from one of brotherly support to one of spiritual guidance. Abioye served as the senior pastor of Garden of Faith in Kaduna, the previous national headquarters of the church, when Oyedepo moved to Lagos. He was ordained as a bishop in the church in 1993.
