The event, which was filled with glitz and glamour, attracted friends, family and acquaintances of the Soyemi family.
The book was reviewed by Mr. Bayo Onanuga and Adeyemi Oluwole; while Pastor Kelly Akinsoyinu was the officiating minister for the ordination.
According to Onanuga, the book tells of stories of challenges, triumphs and lessons from the clergy’s life and ministry. “It takes the reader through the vanity of human existence, where men of noble births and background would die together with men of useless, strange, unknown background even separated and buried separately, it is still nothing”.
According to Onanuga, the book speaks to the divergent people of this generation, precisely people who are after the things of the world. Recommending the book for those who need to know the vanity of human existence which is Zero, he said Pastor Soyemi’s life was a canvas of good virtues. Onanuga commended the author’s language and choice of words from the first chapter to the end. He described the author as a good writer who spiced the book with relevant bible passages.
