“Brother Soyinka held the Bible as supremely sacred. He  constantly upheld the Word of God as the foundation and substance for  all he had to say. Whether in preaching or counselling, he referred to the  Bible as his authority.”

“Truth, clarity and passion were the characteristics of Brother  Soyinka's teaching. Insight, large discernment, human sympathy and  broad charitable understanding combined with natural gifts, to make  his message break the listener's heart. His clarity of expression and  definition recommended him as a Biblical expositor almost without a  peer. In his hands, the Bible, its precepts and characters, were made to  live and exude a vital force.”

“In stature, Brother Soyinka was tall and had broad features. His  distinct voice rang like a trumpet, piercing souls like ballast. 'I will  offend many of you, but I will cry aloud, because it is better I satisfy  God rather than compromise my calling, for I do not want to be guilty of  blood,' he often said before delivering his sermon.”  

“His rich voice was used to advantage as he moved along his  customary path of exposition with his passionate utterance pleading for  conviction and response. Even then, he was a consummate listener. He  often would lean forward to listen to his visitor, with absolute  concentration and energy.”

“A really loving and caring warrior of the Cross. A loyal and  devoted Christian. A faithful, trustful and veteran Gospel preacher. A courageous evangelist and prayer warrior. An honest, well-behaved  and dauntless preacher. A real wonderful counsellor, a lover of youth  and elders. Father of all young people.”

“A man of great intellect, a good Samaritan and above all, a  visionary and disciplined leader.”
