The stage is set for the 2025 edition of the Ilasẹ-Ijẹ̀ṣà Annual Crusade, a long-standing end-of-year spiritual gathering scheduled to hold from December 28 to 30.
PERISCOPE NIGERIA reports that the crusade will be headlined by the President of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), Bishop Francis Wale Oke, who is expected to lead other renowned ministers of the Gospel in prayers and declarations of blessings over the people of Ilasẹ-Ijẹ̀ṣà, Osun State, and the nation at large.
Also billed to participate is the Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Osun State, Pastor Dr. John Adeleke. He will join Apostle Dr. Bolaji O. Akinyemi, President of Voice of the Ministry, and Ven. Alabi, Chairman of CAN, Ilasẹ-Ijẹ̀ṣà, to receive the PFN President and collectively intercede for divine favour, peace, and progress upon the land.
Other ministers expected to minister at the crusade include Pastor Tope Ilesanmi, adding further spiritual depth to the annual gathering.
The gospel music segment of the programme will feature Evangelist Bisi Alawiye-Aluko, Bimbo Psalmz, and Ijo Bukky Bata Gospel, a familiar and highly anticipated aspect of the Ilasẹ-Ijẹ̀ṣà crusade over the years.
Speaking ahead of the event, Ven. Alabi said the vision of the organisers is to seek God’s favour upon the people and the land, with special prayers for Osun State and Nigeria, particularly for peace and stability as the state approaches an election year.
Apostle Dr. Bolaji O. Akinyemi described the crusade as a thanksgiving unto God for His enduring grace and favour upon Ilasẹ-Ijẹ̀ṣà, noting that consistent prayers spanning over two decades are yielding tangible results.
“Our consistency in prayer over the years is bearing fruit,” he said, citing the establishment and growth of Obokun University, Ilasẹ-Ijẹ̀ṣà, as a clear testimony of divine intervention and progress in the community.
