KICC: Ashimolowo hints at retirement, appoints son as UK resident pastor

Popular cleric and Founder of the Kingsway International Christian Centre, Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo, has appointed his first son, Tobi Ashimolowo, as Resident Pastor 2 of the KICC in London.

The UK-based cleric also hinted at his own ‘retirement’ from the Ministry.

Tobi will be assisting his mother, Yemisi Ashimolowo, who has been the resident pastor at the church for a long time.

Ashimolowo made the announcement to the excitement of the congregation.

Ashimolowo said: “In a very major way from this morning, we will no longer have one resident pastor. Yemisi has always been our resident pastor, so she will be Resident Pastor 1. Our new resident pastor is Pastor Tobi Ashimolowo. So, he is our Resident Pastor 2, he has to take some serious responsibility from now on. These guys are retiring their father.”

He prayed that his son will be anointed and favoured by God, and that

God will use him to draw his own generation to God, and to shake systems.

Tobi is one of Ashimolowo’s two sons. He founded the Vault, a high-end store for men’s wear and accessories.

The KICC is a Pentecostal church which has branches in Europe, America, Africa including Nigeria.

It started in North London in 1992 by Rev. Ashimolowo.
