While revealing how EVOM started, he told Gospel Film News in exclusive Interview that “Towards the end of 1988, a group of young Christians came together with a mind of preaching the gospel but, then, we did not want to employ any of the then conventional methods of reaching out vis-à-vis preaching, singing, writing tracts etc. We wanted something different. God led us to preach the gospel via drama. Our first-ever drama ministration was in December, 1988. However, the official birth date of EVOM is March 1, 1989. This is because we consider the period between December, 1988 and March, 1989 as our period of preparation.”
Agboola is a Christian Scriptwriter, Director and Actor. He has written and directed many movies and over a dozen full-length stage drama productions. He is also an author with a number of topical Christian books to his credit. He speaks at seminars, conferences, conventions and other Christian forums within and outside Nigeria.
