Tributes Pour in as Peter Obi, Adebayo Honour Rev. William Okoye
Former presidential candidates Peter Obi and Adewole Adebayo have expressed grief over the passing of Rev. Dr. William Okoye, founder of the All Christians Fellowship Mission and former chaplain at the Presidential Villa, Abuja. In separate condolence messages, both leaders described the late cleric as a dedicated servant of God whose lifelong commitment to faith, integrity and national development touched countless lives. Obi said Rev. Okoye was a spiritual leader who measured success by the positive impact of his ministry rather than its size. He noted that the late preacher inspired many Nigerians through his teachings, leadership and personal example, encouraging values such as discipline, hope and righteousness. According to Obi, Nigeria has lost a respected voice for peace, justice and unity at a time when the nation needs leaders who can inspire compassion and national cohesion. He urged Nigerians to honour the cleric's legacy by embracing selfless service and working towards a more peaceful and prosperous country. Adebayo also paid tribute to the late minister, describing him as one of Nigeria's most respected Christian leaders whose influence extended beyond denominational boundaries. He said Rev. Okoye devoted his life to promoting righteousness, strengthening the Christian faith and encouraging moral transformation across the nation. He added that the cleric's commitment to mentoring leaders of character and advocating peace and national reconciliation would remain a lasting legacy. Both leaders extended their condolences to Rev. Okoye's family, the All Christians Fellowship Mission, the Christian community and all those affected by his passing, while praying for strength and comfort for those mourning the respected cleric.
