Early Life and Foundational Experiences
Adegboyega Adedeji’s journey into ministry can be traced to his childhood in Osun State, Nigeria, where he performed his first drama ministration at age six in the Anglican Church. From that formative experience, he embraced drama as his foremost avenue of service and expression, participating in diverse stage performances and acting platforms well before his university days.
As an undergraduate studying Economics at Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife (2004 – 2008), he served in the Redeemed Christian Fellowship (RCF) on campus, particularly within the Drama subgroup. Although drama was his initial ministry passion, he also functioned actively as a church usher, a Sunday school teacher, and later as an Area Drama Coordinator at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) in Ife, Osun State.
Formative Leadership and Ministerial Journey
- NYSC Leadership (Arochukwu, Abia State): During his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) year, Adegboyega served as the Zonal Coordinator of the Nigerian Christian Corpers Fellowship (NCCF). In this capacity, he led a team of executives who carried out secondary school, prison, and hospital outreaches; church drama ministrations; and various teaching sessions and fellowship gatherings for Corps members.
- Further Theological Formation: After his service year, he completed the Basic Certificate Course (BCC), Leadership Certificate Course (LCC), and Leadership Development Course (LDC) at the Word of Faith Bible Institute (WOFBI), an arm of the Living Faith Church in Osun State (April – July 2010). He then proceeded to earn a Post-Graduate Diploma in Theology from the Redeemed Christian Bible College at the Redemption Camp (2011).
- Early Ministry in Abuja and Katsina: Following a brief stint serving as Executive Assistant to Rev. Sam Oye (of Harvesthouse International Church, now The Transforming Church) between October 2011 and February 2012, Adegboyega married his wife, Omolara (“Lara Gboyega”) Adedeji. Soon after, they relocated to Katsina State and began to disciple believers, write and publish articles and books, and speak in various churches and fellowships.
Core Calling and Ministry Mandate
From his earliest days as a child-actor in a church drama team, to leading outreaches and training across multiple states in Nigeria, Adegboyega’s life has been marked by an apostolic, teaching, and prophetic mantle.

- Drama, Teaching & Discipleship: Identifying as a “Drama Minister first,” Adegboyega also prioritizes systematic biblical teaching, leadership training, and discipleship—equipping the saints for the work of ministry (Ephesians 4:12).
- Spiritual Revelations & Governing Words: He has received numerous prophetic words and revelations from the Holy Spirit, shaping both his personal growth and the strategic direction of Kingdom Pathwalkers Ministries (KPM). These revelations emphasize restoration, kingdom authority, global evangelistic expansion, and the impartation of spiritual gifts to believers.
