Pastor William Kumuyi, the founder and general superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, stated on Wednesday that he has no plans to retire and noted that he is healthy enough to compete in a relay race.
The well-known clergyman, who is 82 years old, arrived in Benin City, the capital of Edo State, at 2:00 pm on the first day of a six-day “Global Crusade with Kumuyi,” which will be held at the Garrick Memorial Grammar School on Ekhewan Road in Benin City, with the subject “Loose Him, Let Him Go.”
In response to inquiries from media in the Benin Airport’s VIP Lounge, he voiced hope that the six-day gathering will have a beneficial effect on people’s material and spiritual well-being.

When asked if he was considering retiring after decades as the founder of the ministry, he said, “If you rest while you are not tired, if you rest while your vision is becoming brighter, If you rest when you see farther than you saw 50 years ago, you will not be called the wise man.
“I’m getting the vision, more anointing, strength, and power. I can run a relay race today more than I could 50 years ago. When I start getting tired, I can start thinking of retirement. But for now, the vision is coming so fast that I’m trying to catch up. So, no retirement yet.
“I have great remembrance of what took place in earlier years when I started coming to Edo State. I’m thinking about things that happened and am excited. I want to see greater things happening at this time,” he added.
