Biography

Rev Festus Azubuike was born to late Mr. and Mrs. Fredrick Azubuike in 1949 in a Uruagu, a small village in Nnewi in Anambra state of Nigeria. One of 10 children, he grew up a lover of nature and the God of Nature even in a childhood plagued with Hardship and struggles, all along having a faint inkling in the deep recesses of his soul that he will someday attempt great things for God.

Jesus called him and chose him for his own in 1968 during the Nigerian civil war. He backslid and during that period, made a a solemn vow to the Lord that If He (God) would help him survive the war, he would serve Him all the days of his life. He renewed his relationship with the Savior after the war in January 1970 and set sail through destiny to eternal life.

He answered the call to full time christian service in 1972 after he had "wrestled all night" it was a hard decision as he had already been a successful businessman who had only wanted to serve God as a sponsor of the gospel. The Journey he has since described as a "joy ride"
