About My Family
My wife, Seyi, and I were born and raised in Nigeria. We met at the place of service in a local church during our undergraduate studies in University of Ilorin while she was studying medicine, and I was studying history. We got married in 2009 and have two beautiful girls, Ola and Ire.
Seyi and I love to serve and have continued to serve the church of Jesus Christ together. We have been privileged to lead for more than two decades in various capacities ranging from being associates to leading and pioneering in various cities and cultures, ministries and church plants.
In late 2021, I landed in Canada and the family joined shortly after in obedience to the dream God has put in their hearts to come plant a life-giving church in Ottawa—Canada’s capital city.

About My Church Plant
In February 2024, we will be launching Greatness Church in Ottawa.
In 2019, StatCan stated that only 23% of people reported attending religious group activities, such as church services, at least once a month. Between 2000 and 2009, the figure was higher at around 30% but now in 2023, in the aftermath of COVID-19, the figures have further dwindled such that more than 80% do not go to church.
We are greatly burdened about the brokenness and spiritual state of our city and are trusting God to help us reach the unreached in our city. As part of our pre-launch efforts, we have started building a launch team and are excited about how well God is helping us to get these committed people discipled and equipped to help disciple those who will be drawn to our new church.

NAMB Church Planting
Millions in North America are in desperate need of hope. Ultimately, the only hope that’s going to last - in this life and the next - is the hope of the gospel. North American missionaries build relationships and share this hope in their communities and beyond.
