Funmilayo Adebayo commonly known as Mummy GO[1] is a Nigerian evangelist[2] and founder of Rapture Proclaimer Evangelical Church of God from Ekiti State.[3][4][5] Her controversial message 990 years in the Kingdom of Darkness went viral in Nigeria, and caught the attention of many people.[4][3] There, she claimed she spent 990 years[6][7] in the kingdom of darkness and narrated her experiences there and what led her to Christ.[7]

Career

Before her viral fame, Adebayo had preached for decades, building a small Pentecostal ministry in Iyana Ipaja, Lagos, centred on themes of holiness, heaven, and hellfire.[8] Her sermons, once confined to cassette tapes and a modest congregation, reached a global audience after short video clips began circulating online, in which she declared that practices such as wearing jewellery, eating certain foods, dancing, or using social media could send believers to hell.[8]
