Canon Omigbodun Installed on Cathedral’s Statutory Stall Named After Father, Venerable Omigbodun

History was made this Sunday 28th June 2026, as the Reverend Canon Goke Omigbodun was installed Statutory Canon of the Anglican Cathedral of All Saints, Balogun Agoro, Osogbo by the Diocesan Bishop of Osun, the Right Reverend Foluso Babatunji.

The rare history is the allotment of the Stall named after his late father, the Venerable Ladunjoye Omigbodun to the Reverend Canon Goke Omigbodun, being one of Fifteen Statutory Canons Stalls in the Cathedral of the Osun Diocese.

In his sermon during the Installation Service, Bishop Foluso Babatunji selected verses from the twelfth Chapter of the Gospel according to Saint Luke, to charge the fifteen newly installed Statutory Canons, to be vigilant and watchful in their respective ministries, to always overcome spiritual challenges.

The Dean of the Cathedral of All Saints Balogun Agoro Osogbo, the Venerable Dayo Ojo had earlier been directed by the Diocesan Bishop, to install the Statutory Canons, leading each to his stall, including the Rev. Canon Goke Omigbodun to the Venerable Ladunjoye Omigbodun Stall.

Others installed include Statutory Canons:
Samuel Akinleye, Akintade Akinola, VOA Fasunon, Dr. Bayo Omotoriogun and Kelechi Chukwueme.
Others include Statutory Canons M.A. Akande, Z.T. Oyetunji, A.A. Fatoye, Dr. J.A. Tanimowo and E.K. Asomooba.
Yet others are Reverend Canons O.I. Omotade, E.T. Fabiyi, S.O. Awodele and Adeniyi Afolabi.

It is noteworthy that the Reverend Canon Goke Omigbodun had earlier this month emerged the Best Graduating Student of the Immanuel College of Theology and Christian Education, in the Tent Makers Ministry category of the Bachelor of Theology, B.Th, programme, affiliated to the University of Ibadan Nigeria, winning the highest number of prizes amongst fellow graduating students of the College, this year 2026.
