Responding to questions from newsmen, the Commissioner for Education, Dipo Eluwole lamented over the decay of infrastructure in Osun schools which is affecting performance of the pupils and responsible for poor rating of the state in southwest states.
According to him, “During Aregbe regime I was a lawmaker at Osun State House of Assembly, when he was doing his 60th birthday there was a special session for him in the house. They were eulogizing him when it got to my turn, I was called upon to talk and I spoke about the mega school. I said, Mr Governor, you are building gigantic houses you did not teach the children, don’t you know that the children that are not taught will sell…people at the gallery were clapping.
“The man doesn’t know what to say, that is the case in Iwo and so many places. There are gigantic buildings no pupils, no maintenance, they don’t think maintenance. I went to village school, it was made of mud and it is still there, before I was born the school was built by Baba Awolowo and the school is still there. So what about renovating the ones that are there put things that will make life easy for pupils. Many of the newly built schools by Oyinlola were destroyed. Look at the gigantic schools now, they are useless, but by the grace of God, we are going to sit down to look into those that are rotting and do something about it.”
He added that, “The regime built infrastructure without thinking of its maintenance. The contractors have gotten their money and gone now, what of the maintenance of those edifice ? it is a problem now. All those things, they don’t think about it but we are going to look for ways of making judicious use of those structures.”
Earlier, the Education summit chairman, Professor Oyesoji Aremu said that Governor Ademola Adeleke has promised the committee of implementing all the recommendations that will be made after the programme because politicians will be carried along during the summit.

REVELEAD: Why Pastor Kumuyi Is Changing Some Deeper Life Principles

Published

on

The General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Folorunsho Kumuyi, has announced a series of changes to some of the long-standing rules of the church, saying many of them were never scriptural but were introduced for administrative purposes.

Pastor Kumuyi, widely regarded as one of the most influential church leaders in the world, is the founder of Deeper Life Bible Church, which began in 1973 as a small Bible study group in Lagos.

Over the decades, the ministry has grown into a global Christian movement. The Lagos headquarters alone attracts over 120,000 worshippers weekly, placing it among the five largest single congregations worldwide. In Nigeria, the church boasts more than one million members with over 5,000 branches, and a further 3,000 branches spread across Africa, Europe, and North America.

Speaking at the church 2025 Global Family and Marriage Conference, Pastor Kumuyi announced modifications to certain marriage rules that had long been regarded as doctrinal. He clarified that many of these practices were never rooted in the Bible but were merely administrative guidelines designed to provide structure.

One of the major changes is the cancellation of the restriction that prevented a lady from visiting her suitor before marriage. According to Kumuyi, intending couples may now visit each other during courtship, provided they are accompanied by an elder. The long-held six-month mandatory courtship period has also been scrapped. “We just felt you need some time to know one another. And then we said one month will be too short, two months too short. So, why not six months? But it is not from the Bible,” he said.

He stated the importance of Christians being able to distinguish between God’s commandments and church traditions.“As a Christian, you need to be so mature that you know the difference between the law of God and the principles in the church. Six months is all right, but it’s not something inflexible. If we change it to three months, we’re not changing the Bible, because six months is not in the Bible,”

Pastor Kumuyi also clarified the role of marriage committees in Deeper Life, noting that their purpose was to provide guidance and not to exercise authority beyond what is written in the scriptures. “There’s no marriage committee in the New Testament. We created it to help you, not because we can give you a chapter and a verse. It is church administration,” he stated.

These changes are seen by people as another step in the ongoing review of church practices that many members and outsiders have often considered too strict. Since founding the church has faced both admiration and criticism for its distinct doctrines. Some of its earlier beliefs and practices have either been misinterpreted or have since evolved:

Technology Use: The church, which once opposed television and modern gadgets, now embraces media and social platforms for evangelism.read the gospel.

Marriage Rules: Inter-church marriages are now accepted, provided the partner is from a Bible-believing church with a holy standard of living.

Dress Code: The church still emphasizes modesty, but women no longer have to tie scarves at all times, and men are not strictly bound to suits.

Medical Treatment: While rumors once suggested Deeper Life discouraged hospital visits, today members are encouraged to seek proper medical care when needed.

Christmas Celebrations: Although many members spend Christmas at church camps, the church has clarified that celebrating Christmas is not forbidden.

Other misconceptions, such as supposed food restrictions or claims that Pastor Kumuyi had relocated to the UK, have also been dispelled.

Through these reforms, Pastor Kumuyi is reinforcing his long-held belief that while order is necessary in the church, it must never be mistaken for scripture.
