Without going into so much details of history, let's go straight to our main focus for today which is one of the mega churches in the country today and its founder. Pastor W.F kumuyi is the president and general overseer of the Deeper Life Bible Church which is a very well known ministry. The religious institution is usually marked for their doctrines which is in sharp contrast with many of its counterpart. Deeper Life has stood the taste of time with decades of their active involvement in religious activities. It has also brought up many Young men and women in the area of ministry accomplishments.

It may interest you to know that even some prominent ministers of the Gospel currently were products of pastor Kumuyi. Tunde Bakare a renowned preacher who heads the Citadel Global Community church formally known as Latter Rain Assembly used to be under the tutorlage of Kumuyi. The Lagos based preacher has recorded massive church growth over the years. Aside from his evangelical work, he also doubles as an activist and partial politician so to say who comments on socio political issues.

Bakare, though has risen to prominence also has his humble beginnings which he himself very much acknowledges and appreciates. Popular pastor Adeboye of RCCG and Kumuyi were two spiritual fathers has worked closely with. However, the Citadel Global Church Founder through his revelation some time ago appeared to have had a clash of doctrinal belief with his initial church, Deeper Life.

According to him, the prohibition and the refusal to use television was the source of the religious dispute. Recall that for many years, the Deeper Life ministry under the headship of Williams Kumuyi prohibited and spoke against the possession or watching of television describing as evil and not of God.

Consequently, due to his strong support base and followership, many members were compelled to follow suit on that perspective. Tunde who was a young apostle then seem to have a very contrasting opinion. The prominent clergy once narrated that during one of his sermons in the church which he was privileged to take, he was talking on the subject relating to how faith comes by hearing. During the course, he attempted to give an illustration using buying of a soap. In his words (paraphrased) "if you want to buy soap and you've been seeing joy soap advert on the television, you would most likely opt for it because you have consistently been hearing about it". To his surprise, the person who was interpreting his statement referred to the television as the "devil box". Unacceptable by him, he tried to correct the interpreter but all effort proved fruitless. He went further to explain that the following day, the Deeper life overseer said that it was evil for any one to own or even repair a television. For the profilic author, this was very wrong perspective to the Biblical teachings. Though he still holds the minister in high esteem, it wasn't a place for him to stay. He left and don't return.

Today however, due to proper enlightenment and biblical understand a turn has been made made and that belief no longer holds though are are still areas of clash one may degree with.

Bakare also came in contact with Redeemed church before establishing his own. He still respects the duo as prominent religious leaders in the country. Worthy of note is that pastor Tunde has been a critical voice to governments inadequacies over the years and was about to reach the pinnacle in politics when he contested as vice presidential candidate in 2011. He was selected to be the running mate of Muhammad Buhari under the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC). The lawyer by training is known for his outspoken nature.
