We give thanks to Almighty God for the successful commencement of the year 2026 through the National Seminars organized by the Akure and Oyo Chapters. These Christian leadership seminars, held early in the year, stand as clear evidence of God’s faithfulness and His continued work in raising godly leaders across Nigeria. Through teaching, fellowship, and careful mentoring, the seminars have strengthened Christian leadership development and set a hopeful tone for greater achievements in the months ahead.

Akure Chapter National Seminar Strengthening Christian Leadership Through Faithfulness
The Akure Chapter National Seminar, now in its 18th edition, was conducted over five days and brought together 31 participants for focused leadership training. This long standing Christian leadership programme has continued to serve as a platform for teaching biblical values, character formation, and servant leadership.
Participants were guided through well structured sessions that emphasized integrity, humility, obedience to God, and responsible leadership within the church and the wider society. The small class size encouraged personal interaction, prayerful reflection, and meaningful discussion. Many participants left the seminar with renewed spiritual strength and a deeper understanding of their calling as Christian leaders in Nigeria.
Through consistency and commitment, the Akure Chapter once again demonstrated that strong leadership is built patiently through sound teaching, godly example, and faithfulness over time.
