A source told the medium that Kpandei resumed on June 2, 2024.

“Some top RCCG officials had to meet with some top people in the parish and confided in them that Pastor Idowu would have to be removed from the parish.
“They needed to get the confidence of these top people because of the great influence of pastor Iluyomade in the parish.
“The RCCG was not sure of the outcome of its move, so it had to be discreet.
“He may not be returned to the parish after the suspension.
