Brief history of Ori-oke Erimo

Over the years, C.A.C Koseunti Oke-Erimo, located in a small town called Erinmo-Ijesha, has always been a Jerusalem of sort not only for people looking up to God for miracles, healing or other things, but also for men of God to refresh their anointing.



 This is because of the spiritual power on this mountain and it has been like that for more than two decades now, especially since Prophet Adeojo, the minister of God in-charge, was ministered to by God to go and establish the place.



It has since become a place where all spiritual needs are met, where miracles abound and testimonies follow almost immediately we were told.



Depending on individual’s problems, people spend days or months on this mountain with fasting and prayer.



As strong and powerful as C.A.C church and its prophets like the great Prophet Ayodele Babalola, Prophet Akande (Baba Abiye) and Prophet T.O Obadare and likes were, so also is this mountain.



But like every other church and mountains, this mountain also has its own rules which is to be followed by visitors. In fact, as soon as you arrive the mountain, you will be advised to go and register your name with full address and car number if you came with any. Interestingly too, people are allowed to come in groups and with their pastors for special prayers, but must obey the laid down rules to the letter.



Some of these rules include silent prayers from 7pm. No shoes are allowed on the mountain. Visitors are also seriously warned against fellowship with strangers in order not to fall victim of fraudsters that do come around, parading themselves as ministers of God. Even eating and drinking is not allowed as soon as one arrives the mountain. Though there is a small store where one can buy soft drinks, bread and things like that, but not to be eaten around the altar.



Another unique thing about this mountain characterized by its distinguishing 146 steps is the mysterious water bank on which one would pass before climbing the mountain.



The water is said to posses spiritual power of healing and performing wonders that people come from all over the world to collect it. The barren, findings revealed regularly come for testimonies as well as those whose businesses are experiencing turbulence. Top politicians and big time contractors we learnt do visit this mountain every now and then for spiritual cleansing and other special prayers.



Prayers here are said to be answered by fire and speedily too, which is why according to our findings most people go there for miracles.



Findings even revealed that most visitors were told on arrival that it is advisable for one to bath with the water before climbing and when coming down from the mountain.



Aside that, the most shocking thing is how building materials are moved to the mountain top as high as it is. Because there are some buildings on the mountain. For instance, the mountain top has an auditorium, the prophets’ section and the one reserved for the use of female worshipers.



The process we heard is through voluntary efforts of visitors who carry block, sand and other building materials one by one, from bottom of the mountain to the top, depending on their capacity and how laid it in their hearts.



Here, general program takes place every day from 12pm to 3pm. Special program is on Fridays at 12am in the mid night till 4am or 5am in the morning.



So visitor are free to have their individual prayers every other hour aside the stipulated time for general prayers.
