Senwele Jesu soars at 50 says beginning was toughpublished by Church Times July 14, 2025By Isaac DanielThe ancient and historic city of Ibadan, Oyo State, capital, will come alive on July 14 and 19 as the gospel music community, the Christendom and eminent personalities from across Nigeria and beyond are gathering to celebrate the revered gospel minister, Evangelist Dr. Bukola Rachel Akinade, popularly known as Senwele Jesu, as she marks her 50th birthday and her novel plans to take gospel music to greater heights.According to a statement issued by the Golden Jubilee Celebration Event Coordinator, Mr. Seyi Sokoya, the two-in-one event is designed to honour both the remarkable life journey and the ministerial exploits of Senwele Jesu, a household name in gospel music to the praise and glory of God.“Senwele Jesu is a respected gospel music brand. She has remained steadfast and consistent in her calling to populate the Kingdom with her God-given talent.

This celebration is not just a birthday, it is a recognition of her commitment, service, and enduring impact in the gospel music ministry in the last 25 years,”
Evangelist Bukola’s entry into music ministry came with a very rough and tough beginning, because nobody believed in her vision - including her family. They were so skeptical about my future in music. Her late father, detested music and some churches rejected her because her style of music was so different. Today, Evangelist Olubukola Rachael Akinade, popularly known as Senwele Jesu, is a renowned Nigerian gospel musician celebrated for her significant contributions to gospel music. Her unique blend of traditional and cultural influences has given her an edge in the gospel music ministry. She has established herself as a spiritual singer with a high level of discipline.
A passionate advocate for decency in society, Senwele Jesu remains an elegant and sought-after gospel minister with her musical journey spanning over two decades, marking her 20th year in ministry in 2020.
