A Nigerian clergyman, Ezekiel Atang, has died, IGBERETV reports.

Atang who was a popular relationship and marriage counselor, died on Monday, 21st February 2022, three weeks to his 50th birthday.

Atang had sent out souvenirs and a letter to his friends inviting them to his 50th birthday party in Akwa Ibom on March 14.

Recently, he attended a 3-day church program in Onitsha and had to sit on a chair to minister on the last day of the program. He died the following day.

In his last ministration, he said several things prevented him from coming for the church service, including a sharp pain he had on his chest. He ignored all the challenges to attend the service.

In his words,

"Several things stopped me from coming today. First was last night. I had a very severe chest pain that I could not lie down. So, I sat down till morning and prayed. So, I said okay, I will still come. And then, the vehicle matter happened in the road. So, I asked the Lord, "is this a sign that I shouldn't come, or is there someone the devil is battling..."

His friend and clergyman, Kingsley Okonkwo, shared photos of the invitation letter Atang had sent out to friends and wrote;

''My brother and my friend, my partner in family life mandate to the body of christ

You left an indelible mark, and unforgettable legacy, you spoke with clarity and conviction, loved by all, we will definitely miss you

I received the invitation to your 50th birthday celebration same day you went to be with the Lord

I'm happy I spoke to you and saw you a few days before you went to be with the Lord, we love you - you will never be forgotten on this side.

I get your point of view, I used to hold such viewsview until I saw things that should not exist ...existing .... just keep believing what you do , one day God will manifest to you.

When I say God I mean the inteligence that all things living and none living emerges from not from religious views

Rest in peace, being a man of God doesn't guarantee you seeing tomorrow,celebrating 50 when you are not 50 don't count your chicks, a million way to die in naija.

Death is not the end of man's life, it's simply the crossing over from this realm to the other realm. It's not how long we live but the grace to continue living in eternity after this life.
his death is not an evidence that there is no God but rather that; there is time for everything, time to born and time to die.
death is inevitable, we all owe the debt and once the time is due we answer the clarion call. Jesus lived only for three decades, personally i don't even want to live that long once i fufill the task given to me let God take me. The man has fufilled his God given mandate and has transcend to the other side to give account. Pls. Repent now that you have time, tomorrow might be too late.

It doesn 't matter, i know i'am not intelligent but time shall tell. What counts is that Christ is preached, you may not see truth cos you are blinded but my prayer for you is that God shows you his mercy just as i was shown. Jesus loves you

God will not come down.
He had a sharp pain in his chest. That was a warning sign. He should have taken himself off to the hospital.

If he was there in the first place it's expected of him to prevent it..just as some Christians rely on him a lot for any little issue..

Indeed..
And the same bible says in Psalm 121:7-8

"The Lord will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore"
He knew what was gonna happen and could have prevented it..

Ok

Na only once person dey die and anyhow the death take come, na so im take come.

Religious, atheist, gay, straight, we will all die someday.
I think the best we can do is enjoy life!

Hmmmm

Nigerians are just too careless when it comes to their health...

Being a pastor does not mean you shouldn't have time to do one or two exercise.

RIP to the gentleman
I only heard good things about him.


We will all die someday.

He should have avoided the meeting to fend for his health needs.

May God grants his family and loved ones the fortitude to bear the loss.
