I am the Senior Pastor and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of The Fountain of Life Church. A son to the late Pastors Taiwo and Bimbo Odukoya, the founding pastors of the Church.
I am a man of many gifts, who has counselled many in relationships, mentored many young people and I also have been active in the music and acting space.
My call to ministry unfolded during my residency in Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States of America, where I was part of the active leadership team of Greenwood Christian Centre (now Transformation Church) led by Bishop Gary and Debbie McIntosh. I functioned as the Executive Assistant to the then Associate Senior Pastor Calvin Battle, in addition to his role as the Church Administrator.
I organized various church activities, including speaking at quarterly conferences, which contributed immensely to the ministry’s growth and development. I was ordained as a licensed minister in the state of Oklahoma in 2007.
In 2009, during one of my visits to Nigeria, I was ordained as a pastor at The Fountain of Life Church. I moved back to Nigeria in October of 2010 and assumed the role of Associate Pastor at Church 3:16, the youth ministry of The Fountain of Life Church, a role in which I functioned for two years. I then moved to the role of Coordinating Pastor of the same youth church in February 2012 and functioned in that role for seven years.
In 2019, in alignment with the mission set forth by my father, Pastor Taiwo Odukoya, to reach a younger demographic across the country, I established “The CAVE.” This initiative provided a safe haven for individuals to seek God’s love, meet with the dynamic power of Jesus and discover their purpose and calling without fear of judgment.
My professional acting journey commenced sometime in 2016 in Lagos, Nigeria. In no time, I became a leading actor in Nollywood with a familiar presence on both television and cinema screens across Nigeria. Over the years, I achieved notable success in the film industry, earning recognition as one of the most prominent figures. My career reached a significant milestone with my appearance in the blockbuster Hollywood production, “The Woman King”, alongside the esteemed Viola Davis and a talented ensemble cast. Through my international projects, I have represented Nigerian excellence in various countries, including South Africa, Ghana, and the United Kingdom.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, with a minor in Public Relations and Advertising from the Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and an MBA in Business Administration from the same institution.
I took on the role of the Senior Pastor and Chairman, Board of Trustees of The Fountain of Life Church after the death of my father, Pastor Taiwo Odukoya, on the 7th of August 2023.
