Pastor Olorunnimbe

The Chief-of-Staff and Chief Private Secretary to the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Adetokunbo Abayomi Olorunnimbe, has passed on. He died on Saturday, March 30, aged 60.

His death was confirmed in Lagos by Olaolu Olorunnimbe, son of the deceased, who revealed that burial arrangements would be announced soon.

The eldest son of Justice I.A. Olorunnimbe, Tokunbo was known affectionately by his siblings as ‘Broda Adey’. As a man of faith, Tokunbo was deeply devoted to the life of the church. He served in many ways at the Redeemed Christian Church of God. He served as the pastor of several parishes and was pastor of RCCG City of Palms.

As Private Secretary to the General Overseer, he was a highly trusted and respected member of the church. He never wanted praise for any of his labour of love, but always saw his service to the church, to the community, and to his family as a way of sharing his love for God.

A fierce intellectual, Tokunbo was trained as a lawyer in the University of Lagos and Cambridge University. He was stimulated by cerebral debates and was a man who was always up for the adventure of life. But no matter what he was doing, he enjoyed his time with his family – including his church family – more than anything.

Tokunbo Olorunnimbe is survived by his wife, Dr. Modupe Olorunnimbe, their children: Folasayo Williams, Laolu Olorunnimbe and son-in-law Bode Williams. His legacy of love and life lives on in his grandchildren: Olasheni and Oluwateniola Williams. He is also survived by his father, Justice I.A. Olorunnimbe OON, siblings, and other relatives.
