Prophet Chukwuemeka Odumeje Ohanaemere is the General Overseer of The Mountain of Holy Ghost Intervention and Deliverance Ministry. He is one of the most controversial pastors in Nigeria.

Prophet Odumeje is not your regular prophet. The liquid metal, indabosky bahose also has a different fashion sense. While some of his colleagues in the ministry always wear regular suits, the Anambra-based prophet prefers to go on shirts and trousers. It works.

Who else can wear simple trousers and shirts better than him?

Pastor Oyedepo may be in his 60s but he sure knows how to dress up. He is the founder of the Living Faith Church, also known as the Winners Chapel. Oyedepo loves to be in a suit and agbada. His favorite colour is white and he gave reasons for choosing the colour.

In a statement, quoted by Pulse, he explained:

Do you know why I wear white? It is the cheapest thing to wear. White suits are the cheapest or you don’t know, try it.
Praise God. I used to crack joke with a friend and said, you see my dress, the whole thing; how much does it cost because I have the permanent white up and down that I wear.

If I don’t change, you can’t know because if it fades, it fades to white. White can’t fade to black, it can only fade to white.

Pastor Chris Oyahkilome‘s suits are legendary. He is the founding pastor of Christ Embassy (Believer’s Love World). Oyahkilome is a fashion icon who began the trend of Nigerian pastors perming their hair. This is why he scores high on our list.

The charismatic pastor’s style has not faded over the years. Age has got nothing on him. We have the feeling that he will keep switching up his style. After all, he pastors a youth-centric church.

There is nothing Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo wears that is ever wrong. The Kwara-born pastor has a body made for fashion. He is the senior pastor of the Commonwealth Of Zion Assembly (COZA). Although the pastor has constantly been in the news for the wrong reasons, there is no denying the fact that he has good tastes in fashion.

He is not limited to suits. Pastor Fatoyinbo can wear anything. He can wear a sack of onions and still look good for all we know. This may be because he runs a youth-focused church where members of the congregation also turn up in trendy, smash-hit outfits. Give it to this man of God for always entertaining us with what he wears. He rocks!
