According to a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, the President in a congratulatory letter said the clergyman’s life was "truly worthy of celebration."

He urged Oyedepo to continue to partner with him in his administration's quest to reposition the country for peace, progress and prosperity.

The President wrote, "I write on behalf of my family, the Government and people of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to rejoice with you as you mark your milestone 60th birthday anniversary.

"Yours is, indeed, a life truly worthy of celebration. You have attained lofty heights not just as an accomplished selfless servant of God, but also in the committed service of community, country, and our common humanity.

"You have not only committed to giving your all in pursuit of the massively impactful propagation of the Word, you have also embraced the cause of providing quality education for our children.

"As Almighty God continues to bless you with robust health and many more years of happiness, uncommon accomplishment, and fulfilling service, it is my prayer that you will continue to partner with us in our quest to reposition Nigeria for peace, progress and prosperity."
