Nollywood actress-turned-evangelist, Tonto Dikeh, has taken her Christian faith journey to a new level with the launch of a new interdenominational prayer ministry in Abuja.

Dikeh unveiled the New Wine Prophetic Tabernacle (NWPT), describing it as an “interdenominational altar, spiritual home and global movement of consecrated believers.”

The actress made the announcement on her Instagram page on Sunday night, saying the new ministry would serve as a centre for prayer, revival, spiritual training and the awakening of consecrated believers.

According to Dikeh, NWPT was inspired by biblical teachings on “new wine” and is focused on spiritual transformation, Christian growth and apostolic training.

She said the ministry was established to provide a platform for believers who desire deeper spiritual growth and a stronger commitment to prayer, revival and Christian service.

Unveiling the vision of the ministry, Dikeh declared that NWPT seeks “to see a global awakening of consecrated believers operating in the raw power, purity, and presence of God transforming nations and establishing the Kingdom of Christ on Earth.”

The new ministry will hold its weekly fellowship every Friday at 6:00 p.m. in Abuja, according to the evangelist.

The launch marks another major step in Dikeh’s increasingly public Christian journey, following her recent involvement in evangelism, preaching and other faith-based activities.

With NWPT, the actress-turned-evangelist appears set to expand her ministry beyond personal evangelism into a broader platform focused on prayer, revival and spiritual transformation.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has congratulated the General Superintendent and founder of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, William Folorunso Kumuyi, on his 85th birthday, describing him as a remarkable servant of God whose ministry has transformed millions of lives across the world.

In a statement issued on Saturday by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, President Tinubu praised Pastor Kumuyi’s unwavering commitment to the Christian faith, noting that his influence has continued to grow for more than five decades.

The President said Pastor Kumuyi’s enduring legacy of faith, wisdom and dedication has been instrumental in building a thriving ministry that has touched lives both within and outside Nigeria.

Tinubu particularly commended the cleric’s role as convener of the Global Crusade with Kumuyi (GCK), noting that the evangelistic outreach has extended beyond church walls and national boundaries to bring hope, encouragement and spiritual renewal to millions of people around the world.

According to the President, Pastor Kumuyi’s teachings, writings and sermons have provided timeless guidance to individuals seeking purpose, truth and direction in life.

He further noted that the renowned preacher’s ministry has contributed significantly to the transformation of lives, restoration of families, development of leaders and strengthening of the faith of several generations of believers.

President Tinubu described the octogenarian cleric as a source of inspiration whose commitment to Christian values and service to humanity has earned him widespread respect and admiration.

As Pastor Kumuyi marks his 85th birthday on June 6, 2026, the President prayed for God’s continued blessings upon him, asking for strength, divine health, peace and abundant grace in the years ahead.

Pastor Kumuyi is widely regarded as one of Africa’s most influential Christian leaders, with the Deeper Christian Life Ministry growing into a global evangelical movement since its establishment more than 50 years ago.

Foluke Adeboye, wife of Enoch Adeboye, has opened up about a profound act of personal sacrifice she made after becoming a born-again Christian, revealing that she once disposed of her valuable gold jewelry as part of her commitment to her faith.

Speaking during a recent interview, the respected minister recounted how her lifestyle changed dramatically when she joined the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG). At the time, certain forms of adornment, including earrings, were discouraged within the church.

Reflecting on that season, she explained that her love for fashion gave way to a deeper desire to live in alignment with her newfound beliefs.

“Every woman loves fashion. The moment we were born again then in RCCG, it was a taboo for you to have earrings. So everything, I dropped it in the lagoon,” she said.

According to her, the decision was not made lightly, as some of the jewelry had been set aside for her child. However, she remained resolute in her conviction, choosing spiritual obedience over material value.

She also recalled how a family acquaintance questioned her actions, suggesting she could have given the items to her mother to sell instead. In response, she emphasized her firm belief that anything she considered spiritually unsuitable for herself should not be passed on to others.

“Whatever is not good for me is not good for my mother,” she stated.

Despite the magnitude of the sacrifice, Mrs. Adeboye expressed peace and contentment with her decision, adding that she harbors no regrets.

“I don’t miss anything, not much,” she affirmed.

Her testimony serves as a reflection of the transformative impact of faith and the personal sacrifices many believers make in their walk with Christ.
