He said: “We are a people-oriented ministry. We minister to the total man. We have numerous things apart from our weekly spiritual impact. For about 12 years, our Shift Outreach (S.O), on every Sunday have been visiting hospitals, hotels and motels, police cells to hold services and feed the inmates."

"We go to the main Ikotun garage weekly to host services and feed people. All these have been going on since 2009 with numerous testimonies of transformed lives of former prostitutes and garage boys now saved.

“We also have the entrepreneurship academy where we raise new breed of entrepreneurs where people can partake online via www.teacademy.ng.com,” he added.
