Seyi Vodi Receives Anointing from Bishop Oyedepo During Birthday Visit

Renowned Nigerian fashion designer and entrepreneur Seyi Adekunle, popularly known as Seyi Vodi, marked his birthday in a spiritual manner with a visit to Bishop David Oyedepo at the Living Faith Church Headquarters in Ota, Ogun State.

Vodi, who is widely recognized as one of Nigeria’s top bespoke tailors, took to social media to share photos and videos of his visit. A highlight of the trip was a touching moment when Bishop Oyedepo personally prayed for and anointed Vodi, who knelt reverently during the prayer. His wife, who couldn’t be physically present, joined the session virtually via a phone call.

In his post, the designer described the experience as “priceless,” stating,

“Never thought this could happen in a lifetime. A priceless experience.”

According to Vodi, members of his team were also anointed during the visit, making the encounter even more memorable.

The post attracted a flurry of reactions online. While many congratulated Vodi on the special blessing, others used the opportunity to call attention to perceived favoritism shown to wealthy individuals by some prominent pastors.

One user wrote,

“Na only the successful ones them dey dedicate time to visit… Mr. Obodo, a diligent tailor and member dey one shop for corner at Agbowo — baba no go anoint him.”

Another added,

“Vodi has been his tailor for years. Y’all should dead that narrative of na only rich people dem dey visit.”

Despite the mixed reactions, many commenters praised Bishop Oyedepo’s influence and his prayers for the fashion mogul, describing the visit as inspirational.

Seyi Vodi, who is known for dressing high-profile clients across Nigeria, continues to maintain a strong presence in the fashion industry, blending creativity with a powerful network.
