Veteran Nollywood actor Hanks Anuku has sent social media into an absolute frenzy after revealing a lesser-known chapter of his life—claiming that Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), personally ordained him as a pastor years ago!
Speaking during a viral sit-down on the popular Honest Bunch Podcast, the legendary film star known for his iconic villain roles disclosed that he attended Bible school and studied theology at the famous Redemption Camp along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway while living in Lagos.
Anuku explained that his decision to enter Christian ministry was driven by a genuine love for God and divine spiritual direction, adding that his ordination took place while his late wife was still alive.
Responding to potential skeptics who might doubt his spiritual credentials due to his tough-guy movie persona, the veteran actor boldly challenged doubters to verify his claims directly with the RCCG leader himself.
“Pastor Adeboye conferred me as a pastor when I was young then. I am a pastor, but people don’t know. Go and ask him, he will tell you. When you love God, His power is more than yours. Without God or prayers, where are you going to be standing?” Anuku stated during the interview.
The bombshell revelation has sparked massive conversations across X, Instagram, and TikTok, with thousands of fans expressing awe at his unexpected theological background while celebrating his enduring faith journey.
