Ahead of the celebration, Adegboyega shared moments from his pre-11/11 party on Instagram, describing the milestone as a reminder of resilience. “After all the storm, I’m a better person… Last night felt ‘at home’ with family,” he wrote, hinting at a year marked by unexpected challenges and renewed focus.
In a pre-recorded sermon released online, the clergyman disclosed that he had been privately dealing with cancer for several months and had undergone major surgery. He expressed deep gratitude for what he called a divine second chance, crediting both faith and timely medical intervention for his recovery. As part of his thanksgiving, he pledged £100,000 to support cancer awareness and treatment efforts for young patients.
Following his surgery, Adegboyega was recently discharged from the hospital, where a crowd gathered at his church to welcome him back. Addressing the congregation, he spoke candidly about the role financial resources played in the speed of his treatment, saying that money ensured he received priority care rather than spending additional months on a waiting list. While emphasizing that he believes God preserved his life, he also highlighted the practical impact of wealth during critical health emergencies.
Adegboyega’s revelations come amid ongoing public scrutiny surrounding his ministry. However, his openness about his health journey has drawn attention to broader conversations about cancer awareness, early detection, and disparities in healthcare access.
