Newly appointed Chairman of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in the United Kingdom, Pastor Leke Sanusi has said he never worked with the late Mr. Aka Basorun, a one-time chairman of the Nigeria Bar Association as earlier reported.
Church Times had reported that he worked with the late Basorun in a story announcing his appointment as the Chairman of the RCCG UK.
Pastor Sanusi who spoke with our correspondent from the UK after reading the report said he worked with the late Chief Gani Fawehinmi and then went on to start his own chambers after leaving Chief Fawehinmi.
A one-time student activist, Sanusi said many people still can’t connect his past with his present recalling also that he was special assistant to Dr. Olu Onagoruwa, the late Constitutional lawyer when he was minister for Justice in the regime of the late General Sani Abacha.
Many people who spoke with our correspondent about Pastor Sanusi said his appointment as RCCG UK chairman was a well-deserved one.
His predecessor, Pastor Agu Irukwu had also described him in glowing terms assuring that the RCCG Church in the UK will do well under his chairmanship
