Nigerian ‘pastor’ slumps, dies while preaching on altar (Video)

A Deacon at the Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA), Onikoko, Abeokuta, Ogun State, has slumped and died while preaching in the congregation on Sunday.

The Deacon, Chief Francis Oluwole Ogunnusi Awas the Baale of Onikoko community, close to Panseke area of Abeokuta.

It was gathered that Ogunnusi was at the podium on Sunday preaching against the ‘get-rich-quick’ syndrome that has turned into the thing to take care of in various part of the country.

In a video, the Deacon cautioned those killing people and drinking human blood to get rich, saying when they died, the cash would be taken by another person.

Speaking in Yoruba, the community head said, “The money you make through unlawful means, killing people, sucking human blood; when death comes, it will belong to another person.”

However, when the interpreter was all the while attempting to introduce the words in English language, the man suddenly fell heavily with the microphone in his hand.

This led to commotion in the church hall, as people ran to carry him to the medical clinic.

A member of the congregation, who did not want to be mentioned, said the man was hurried to the Federal Medical Center, Idi-Aba, Abeokuta, where he was pronounced dead.

“The man was not the pastor of that church, he was just an elder. He was the Baale of Onikoko. But he was the one that delivered the sermon on Sunday.

“He was talking about death and people who make money by killing other people. All of a sudden, he collapsed. He was rushed to the FMC, but he died. We don’t know what happened. I was very scared. Everything was disrupted. We just shared the grace and went home,” the worshipper said.

The source said he wouldn’t know if the man had any health challenge before his sudden death on Sunday, adding that the deceased evangelist should be somewhere in the range of 60 and 70 years.

It was gathered that the congregation at Onikoko is the headquarters of ECWA in Ogun State.

The lifeless body of Chief Ogunnusi has been kept in the mortuary, it was gathered
