VIDEO: Why I run my church in unconventional manner — Pastor Tobi

Pastor Tobi Adegboyega, the founder of SPAC Nation, recently spoke about his journey as a minister and the unorthodox methods he employs in running his church.

His comments came during an appearance on Channels TV Politics Today on Monday evening, December 16, 2024.

Adegboyega shared that he grew up as a pastor’s son and began preaching at the age of 8.

He explained that his sense of purpose as minister deepened after he arrived in the UK in 2005, where he witnessed alarming levels of gang violence among young Nigerians in Peckham, many of whom were armed with knives.

Determined to make a difference, Adegboyega set out to steer these young people away from crime and offer them a sense of purpose.

Adegboyega emphasised that a true calling involves addressing the needs of a generation, a mission he has dedicated himself to since his arrival in the UK.

“A calling is about answering to the needs of a generation, and that’s what I’ve been doing since 2005,” he said.

When asked about the unconventional nature of his ministry, Adegboyega defended his approach, stating that while his methods might be seen as unorthodox, their effectiveness is what truly matters.

He pointed to the positive impact his leadership has had on many young people, particularly those who have been inspired to leave destructive lifestyles behind.
