He noted that his assembly is an offshoot of the church of God. He said its name will be called Living World Conquerors Global Assembly. His statement in part read:

"...May I make it clear that the inauguration of this assembly is not in response to people's demands to start a church, but by emergence of God's eternal purpose ordained from the foundation of the world, which is just coming to light at his own time.
"This is simply an offshoot of the church of Jesus universal, which keeps expanding and spreading across the globe in furtherance of the great commission as commanded in Matthew 28:18-20 and several other gospels...
"On this final note and to the glory of God, this assembly with the name Living World Conquerors Global Assembly is hereby inaugurated this day, Sunday, 4th May, 2025, in the name of God the father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit, for the spiritual development, edification and triumph of the saints globally. And let someone join me to say a loud amen.

Bishop Abioye sends message to Oyedepo

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Bishop Abioye had sent a message to Bishop Oyedepo after his retirement from Winners Chapel church.

Abioye's retirement follows a review of the church’s administrative policy, The Mandate. The retirement age for church leaders has been pegged at 55.

The Mandate stipulates that future church leaders will be restricted to one or two terms of seven years, pending approval by the Board of Trustees (BoT). Following Bishop Abioye's retirement, a valedictory service was held for him at the Winners Chapel, Abuja.
