Nigerian-born Nelson Ogbonna’s Rising Voice to the World

There is a powerful and influential voice that God is using to speak into the lives of “who’s who” in America and across the globe. He is the Nigerian-born Nelson Ogbonna (a.k.a. O.G.B.) Ugwuzor.

Born in Aba, Abia State to the late Mr. Ruben Ugwuzor and Chief, Mrs. Pleasure Mearcy Ugwuzor (a.k.a. Nneohaaba) and educated in Nigeria and the USA, Ogbonna now oversees one of the most powerful and fastest-growing churches in Los Angeles, California.

A prayerful and prophetic man of God, Ogbonna is an inspiration to the body of Christ worldwide. He has received numerous honours and awards from the United States Senate and members of California State Congress; the Mayor of Los Angeles; and the most recent, former Governor of the State of California, actor/politician Arnold Schwarzenegger. Awards and Certificates of Appreciation have also been bestowed upon him from ministries, spiritual leaders and politicians across the globe for his ministerial inspiration and humanitarian service to the world.

Ogbonna received the 2012 Stellar Award for his radio programme “Spread the Word”, which airs every Sunday on Stevie Wonder’s legendary radio station in the U.S., KJLH, 102.3 FM; a programme that attracts a listening capacity of over one million listeners weekly. He is known as the Pastor to the celebrities and stars in Los Angeles, Hollywood and Beverly Hills.  He led the city of Los Angeles in a prayer of victory for President Barack Obama a week before his election at a gathering of over a quarter-million people during the city’s Taste of Soul Family Festival.

Ogbonna has been invited again to Costa Mesa, California to be a special guest speaker on an upcoming edition of the “Praise the Lord” television programme on TBN on June 5, 2014. The episode will broadcast worldwide, including airings in Nigeria and throughout Africa from June 6.

His face can be seen and his voice heard across the globe; he is a constant voice and face on Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN), the world’s largest Christian broadcasting network. He declares “I am so humbled to be used by the Lord Jesus Christ to touch the hearts of men and women for God’s glory in a time like this. I am thankful that God uses me to go from house to house, city to city, and nation to nation changing our world for good.” He believes that one word from the Lord can change your entire life.
