Sam Adeyemi, the Founder and Senior Pastor of Daystar Christian Centre, recently opened up about the reasons behind his family’s relocation to the United States. During an insightful virtual interview with Seun Okinbaloye on the ‘Mic On’ podcast, they discussed a range of topics including leadership, governance, politics, and the pivotal role of the younger generation in Nigeria’s future.
The interview, which lasted an hour and a half, was broadcast on the Mic On YouTube channel on Sunday. During this session, Pastor Adeyemi emphasized the need for Nigeria’s older generations, both in political and religious spheres, to make significant changes. He stressed that the younger generation will soon demand accountability and solutions to the nation’s issues.

Adeyemi shared that the decision to relocate was influenced by a series of troubling dreams concerning Nigeria, along with the COVID-19 pandemic and the EndSARS protests. He elaborated, saying, “When COVID-19 began, our children were already in the US, so we stayed together as a family there. We were planning to return to Nigeria as church services were about to resume, but then the EndSARS protests erupted.”
He continued, “After the EndSARS protests ended in violence, we decided to delay our return. When we were finally ready to go back, my wife had a disturbing dream about traveling to Nigeria and returning to the US. I told her I didn’t like the sound of it.”
Three days later, Pastor Adeyemi himself had a similar unsettling dream. “In my dream, both my wife and I traveled to Nigeria, and I found myself in a violent confrontation. I had to call on the name of Jesus Christ to defend myself. I shouted ‘in the name of Jesus Christ’ in my dream and realized I was shouting out loud in reality,” he recounted.
The pastor, originally from Kogi State but born in Niger State, described how these dreams consistently emerged whenever they planned a trip back to Nigeria, causing them to reconsider their plans. “My wife woke me at 2:00 a.m. after my dream, and we both sensed danger. We prayed earnestly, feeling that something wasn’t right,” he added.
Pastor Adeyemi, who is also the President of Success Power International, an NGO focused on leadership, financial, and motivational seminars, mentioned that these dreams often coincided with their scheduled return dates. “We called family members in Nigeria, and they also expressed unease about our traveling back. It was clear something was amiss,” he said.
Acknowledging his 40 years as a Christian, Adeyemi remarked, “If God is speaking to me, I should recognize it. We decided to pray more and seek clarity.”
He concluded by explaining how they involved the leadership of Daystar Christian Centre in their decision-making process. “We held a Zoom meeting with the top 120 leaders of the church. I informed them of our situation, and they supported our decision to stay in the US if that’s what God directed. They assured us that the church would continue to thrive in our absence,” he stated.
