Popular Nigerian singer, Michael Adebayo, professionally known as Ruger, has shared his testimony about a spiritual encounter during the 2024 crossover service at the Cherubim and Seraphim (C&S) church in the Ojodu area of Lagos State.
This was made public in a recent video posted on Instagram by Blownboy_news.
Sharing his experience at the crossover service, Ruger disclosed that it was the first time in four years that he cried.
According to him, he could not help but shed tears after feeling the presence of God Almighty during the church service.
“I thank God. I have not cried in like four years. Today, I saw God again, and I cried. I thank God for my life,” he said.
The ‘Boyfriend’ hitmaker also revealed that, for the past two years, he had been unable to attend a crossover service due to being outside the country for shows.
He added that his determination to attend the 2024 crossover service led him to instruct his manager to cancel any schedule that might coincide with the service.
Ruger, who revealed that he started his music career in the church, expressed gratitude to the congregation and the church’s leadership for their role in his growth.
He said, “Today, I am so happy to be here. Today, my manager texted me and told me that I have one show tonight. And I told him to cancel it that I did not care.
“I have to be in church because in 2021, I was in church here. I missed the crossover service for 2022 and 2023 because I was outside the country.
“I told my manager that if you don’t close any show before the end of the year, make sure that it is before the crossover service because I’m not missing it. Whatever it is, we are not taking it.”
“I thank God for everybody here. I thank God for everybody who has nurtured me since I started in this church. This is a very caring church, because, if this church is not great, great people would not come out of this church.”
Also present at the church crossover was Nigerian singer, Teniola Apata, popularly known as Teni.
The music star, who revealed that she grew up at the Ayo Ni O Surelere church branch, thanked the church for inviting her for the crossover service.
