Charismatic preacher, Bishop Funke Felix Adejumo, has denied reports claiming she has graduated from the Nigerian law school.
The 64-year-old preacher became the subject of viral social media posts during the 2026 Call to Bar ceremonies, with some outlets claiming she had completed the programme.
In a statement posted on her Instagram page, Adejumo’s management team said that although she appreciates bloggers for celebrating her educational journey, reports that she graduated from the law school are “false”.
“We sincerely appreciate the blogger for celebrating and highlighting Bishop Olufunke Felix-Adejumo’s educational journey. Your support and admiration are truly valued,” the statement reads.
“However, we wish to respectfully clarify that the circulated report claiming that Bishop Olufunke Felix-Adejumo has completed the Nigerian Law School at the age of 63 is incorrect.
“Bishop Olufunke Felix-Adejumo has not graduated from the Nigerian Law School, nor has she completed her undergraduate law programme.”
The statement, signed by the administrator of the Funke Felix-Adejumo Matrix Centre, a management and coaching firm founded by the cleric, explained that the photograph used in the viral reports was taken during her matriculation ceremony.
“The photo she recently shared on her social media platforms was a throwback to her matriculation ceremony, not a graduation or completion ceremony,” it added.
“She is still a law student and remains committed to her academic journey with dedication and excellence. We kindly encourage everyone to verify information before sharing it, so we can all help prevent the spread of misinformation.”
