The Nigerian gospel music scene has been set ablaze with the announcement of a landmark collaboration between revered cleric Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye and celebrated gospel singer Dunsin Oyekan. The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) features on a brand new track titled 'Amen', a development that has sent waves of excitement through the faith community and beyond.
The Announcement and Release Details
Dunsin Oyekan took to his official Facebook page on Thursday, January 1, 2026, to make the thrilling revelation. He announced that the song, 'Amen', featuring Pastor E.A. Adeboye, was scheduled for release on all digital music platforms worldwide by 12 midnight on that very day. Furthermore, he disclosed that the accompanying music video would premiere on Friday, January 2, 2026, at 6:00 PM West Africa Time (WAT) on YouTube.
In his heartfelt post, Oyekan shared a poignant moment from the recording process. He recalled Pastor Adeboye inquiring if his contribution to the song was satisfactory. The singer's profound response highlighted the deep reverence held for the clergyman: "I told him 'daddy even if you coughed in it, it’s a blessing already'". Oyekan expressed that he had personally been immensely blessed by the song and invited the public to partake in the experience, declaring, "Tell it on the mountain, 2026 is blessed already!"
Fan Frenzy and Social Media Reactions
The announcement triggered an immediate and ecstatic response from netizens, particularly members of the RCCG fold and admirers of Pastor Adeboye. Social media platforms were flooded with comments expressing joy and spiritual anticipation.
User Princess Mercy echoed Oyekan's sentiment, writing, "Daddy even if you coughed in it, it's a blessing already got me right there. Holy feel the spirit." Another commenter, Aremoh Olu, reflected on the value of relationships, stating, "When you have a healthy relationship with the right people, you’ll one day reap the benefits."
The collaboration also sparked amusing speculation, as noted by Emmanuel C. Okolie, who revealed that while watching a teaser, his spirit correctly identified the featured voice as Pastor Adeboye's, while others guessed different prominent pastors. The overwhelming sentiment was one of spiritual empowerment and celebration, with many comments, like that of Mary Oseni, emphasizing the perceived anointing in the cleric's mere participation.
Context: Adeboye's 2026 Prophecy for Nigeria
This musical collaboration arrives on the heels of Pastor Adeboye's widely discussed prophecy for Nigeria in the year 2026. During the crossover service at his church, the cleric foresaw a potential positive turnaround for the nation. His prophecy suggested that Nigerians who had relocated abroad might consider returning home and indicated a possible reduction in hunger and hardship.
He mentioned that the prophecy was in two parts, with the second part withheld for further prayer and divine guidance before possible revelation. This prophecy had already captured significant attention on social media, making the timing of this gospel music release particularly resonant for his followers who see it as an extension of the blessings proclaimed for the new year.
The fusion of Pastor Enoch Adeboye's spiritual authority with Dunsin Oyekan's contemporary gospel artistry in 'Amen' marks a significant moment in Nigerian gospel music. It represents a powerful confluence of faith, mentorship, and cultural influence, promising to be both a spiritual tool and a musical landmark for listeners in Nigeria and across the globe.
