Nigerian pastor, General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God Enoch Adejare Adeboye, who was born on 2 March 1942 in Ifewara near Ife, in Osun State, Nigeria. Born to a very humble background, he humorously recalls that even poor people called them (his family) poor.
He went to the University of Nigeria (UNN) in Nsukka but because of the Nigeria Civil War, he completed his first degree in the University of Ife (now Obafemi Awolowo University) graduating with a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics in 1967.
