His Holiness, The Most Reverend (Dr.) Rufus Okikiola Olubiyi Ositelu (Ph-D) is the Metropolitan Arch Bishop and incumbent Primate of Church of the Lord (Aladura, Worldwide).
He was elected President, World Council of Churches (WCC) for Africa Region by delegates at the 11th WCC General Assembly on Monday September 5, 2022 in Karlsruhe, Germany.
The Primate who clocked 70 last year is never a man of the ‘fast lane’ generation even though he studied Computer Science in Germany and also a PhD holder in the discipline.
The Primate is also a PhD Holder in Religious Studies.
He is a damn good reader, writer and author of several religious and secular books. His famous book, “Christianity: Inside Story from an African Perspective” is a leading intellectual inspection on Christian Interdenominational liturgy and traditional doctrine.
However, he is of the old ‘do-it-right generation.
The 4th Primate of the Church of The Lord, Aladura is a voracious reader, writer and thinker.
You will think that will encumber his ecumenical and ecclesiastical activities as the Supreme leader of one of the oldest indigenous African Churches in the world but NO, he is graced with the ability to blend both literary and spiritual activities in one zeal.
On Tuesday, May 16 Year 2023, Asabe Afrika TV had a special audience with the Primate at his Ogere, Ogun State (South Western Nigeria) International Secretariat.
The new President of the World Council of Churches (WCC) African Region and holder of the Transparency Africa Honors Awards by Transparency Africa who just returned from some of his local and international assignments in Europe and Africa was in his very best element as he spoke to us on the war crisis in Ukraine and Russia vis-a-vis his new role as African leader of World Congress of Churches (WCC)
The well traveled, self enlightened and highly rational Christian leader of one of Africa’s oldest African initiated churches spoke on the role of his organization concerning the war in Ukraine and why Vladimir Putin need to repent and follow the path of justice.
Primate Ositelu who took over the leadership of the church in 1998 after the demise of his elder brother and 3rd Primate of The Church of The Lord, Aladura, the late Primate Gabriel Olusegun Ositelu has been severally acknowledged as one of world’s most transparent Christian leader from Nigeria and by extension, Africa hence his appointment as WCC Leader in Africa.
He is the 4th Primate of the 98 years old church which was founded by his father, Prophet and Superintendent-General (Dr.) Josiah Olunowo Ositelu of blessed memory in1925.

Very disappointed from this man utterances bcos he is completely ignorant of what is actually going on in Ukraine war . Will you allowed someone to come and put a gun on your head through Ukraine? Bcos that is what America wants to use Ukraine for? The clergy man is an idiot
Asabe where did find all this ignorant and idiot's people by putting them online to be humiliating themselves? Putin is a Christian orthodox man that is completely against homosexuality in which America government is propagating and they are planning to destroy any government that is against them. America worshipping Lucifer and the headquarter is in America.
Primate of darkness.Also Remember all the war upon us corse by those who pay you to deceive God chosen. Remember Mr pastor unah judgement start 2020 lock down Genesis 15 vs 13 to 14.
You will never meet him sorry fake primate!
The vast majority of Nigerian pastors (especially the Pentecostals) who lack integrity themselves wanted to impose obi on us. The rejection of obi communicates an important message to religious bigots,
and, sends a big signal to Pentecostal pastors who use their pulpits to give false prophecies.
I wish I can send dis man a voice note. All your comment on Russia and Ukraine are all lies/ false. E sir, you don’t even no 2% of what’s going on. I bet you have any holy spirt directions in you. Viewers don’t fall for dis Western pastors. Mr pastor Abeg Stick to your Bible and stop feeding people with lies and for you ASABE, baba do good research before bringing in all dis OLODO PASTORS. Good Internet research as thought us more, not dis old glued past who only watch BBC & CNN and thinks dey no all. Mind you, I’m living here in Russia and about what your said about elections.
