In the message, the former President said: “My family and I condole with Pastor Enoch Adeboye and the entire membership of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, on the death of Pastor Dare Adeboye, son of the General Overseer, and a much loved clergyman.

“Though I never knew Pastor Dare personally, I have had cause to meet his father, Pastor Adeboye, and it would seem that the apple did not fall far from the tree.

“From every account, Pastor Dare lived a life that was a pattern of good works and a credit to the Body of Christ. He was known to emulate the godliness and moral leadership that his father is well known for.

“We share in the grief that naturally comes when such a devout man passes on to eternal glory. May God grant his family and ministry the fortitude to bear the loss.”

The late Pastor Adeboye junior, who was 42-year-old, was the third surviving child of the family and died in his sleep on Wednesday in Eket, Akwa Ibom State, where he was based with his family.

Till his death, Pastor Dare was Assistant Pastor in charge of Region (Youth) 35.
