Fresh facts have emerged that Africa Missions propelled Pastor Enoch Adeboye and his wife Pastor Folu Adeboye are designed to lift over 100 million people globally.
This was revealed at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, United States of America where Adeboye and his wife Pastor Folu Adeboye were an important feature in the Assembly that kicked off last Tuesday.
Last Wednesday, a day after President Bola Ahmed Tinubu delivered Nigeria’s statement at the commencement of the General Debate, the Adeboyes stepped up at the Millennium Hilton right across the UN head office building, the hotel where several heads of States were lodged while in town for the UNGA.
The occasion was the launch of Africa Missions Global’s (AMG) latest initiative named Horizon 2033.
Through the new initiative, AMG plans to reach 100m more people in Africa and around the world in the next ten years with humanitarian support, an objective the organisation founded by Mrs. Adeboye has been pursuing since 1996. Since then and up until later the organisation was known simply as Africa Missions.
However, friends and collaborators of Africa Mission, aware of the tremendous impact the organisation has made since, decided it was time to bring the United Nations to the awareness of what it has been doing just as it was also aiming even higher in its outreach ambitions, with the new name Africa Missions Global.
Adeboye, who is the general overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God and Life Patron of AMG puts it aptly: “Gathering here today is to give us an opportunity to introduce ourselves to the world”-(through the heads of states and their representatives all attending the UN General Assembly).
He said Africa Missions founded by his wife had been working “silently -we prefer not to make noise, but we are in almost all the nations in Africa. There you will find schools, boreholes etc done not by governments. But when the UN got notice, and they gave an honorary presentation to my wife, we felt it’s time to introduce ourselves to the world for more collaboration.”
Adeboye was referring to the conferment of the honorary award by the UN Global Women Foundation on his wife earlier in the year.
