oozing out of the Iyesi Otta International Headquarters of the church indicates
that the spiritual warfare Apostle has lined up series of activities to
commemorate his golden jubilee on planet earth.
Born about 50 years ago
in Ile-Ife, Osun State to the family of Pa
Enweliku Samson (a bricklayer from Delta State) and Madam Eunice Samson, Bishop Samson went through though
times in his early life. Out of sheer determination and zeal to succeed, he surmounted
various obstacles to gain admission to the then Bendel State University, Ekpoma where he studied Biology Education.
While on campus, he surrendered his life to Christ in 1985, joined the Youth
for Christ Campus Fellowship and became extremely zealous for God’s kingdom. He
was to later start Christ Royal Family
Campus Fellowship when he moved to the Abraka Campus of the institution. Through
his various ministrations, several secret cult guys on campus got converted to
Christ. After graduation, he received Divine instructions to go fully into
ministry and move to Lagos. This led to the transformation of Christ Royal
Family Campus Fellowship to Christ Royal
Family Church. Since then, there has been no looking back for him. Today, with
a world-class International Headquarters sitting on a 100 hectare Royal City in Otta, Ogun state and several
branches across Nigeria and Africa, Bishop
(Dr) Tom Samson has emerged as one of the most successful Clergies in
Africa. Aside pastoral and ministry works, Samson is also into other sectors
like real estate, education, hospitality, oil and gas.
Noted for his habitual display
of wealth, Pastor Samson frequently preaches prosperity as an inherent benefit
of Salvation.
