Can you tell us about yourself?

I am Archbishop David Olusegun Robert, National Chairman, Nigeria Chapter, West African College of Missionary Bishops. I am also the Founder/ Rector, Robert Bible Training Centre and Graduate School.

How did you get into the ministry?

That is a long story. Getting into the ministry is purely the call of God where we found ourselves from stage to stage. I was once in Deeper Life as a brother, Foursquare Gospel Church as an evangelist and by the grace of God through the bible school, through the university and of course rising by the rank.

What did you study in the university?

I studied Computer Science, Computer Engineering and Electrical/Electronics Engineering.

What is the relevance of computer to ministry?

If you look at the computer and look at the Christianity, there are a lot of things in common. There is nothing man discovers in nature that God is not the author. For example, the entire system of the computer built up in such a manner that the key components can be traced to organs of human body.

What is the assignment God has directed you to perform here today?

We have watched and observed Prophet Olufemi Otusanya Omomajemu, we see there is a grace upon his life and his impact in gospel. Not only in gospel, we also see his love for the things of God. We also see his interest in the study in the field of theology, simply the study of God. By the Grace of God we have found him worthy, himself being a bible scholar, also an accountant from secular institution and now into Christendom. We will be honoring him with an award of Doctorate Degree in Evangelism.

What is God telling you concerning Nigeria?

By the grace of God, Nigeria will be better. Though there have been lots of challenges. The fight against corruption is a good one but government should also concentrate in the area of food. I want government to address issue of food in 2017. An hungry man is an angry man. If the issue of food is addressed poverty rate will be reduced and Nigeria will be better for it.
