This is coming few days after the State Pastor Coordinated the distribution of relief materials sent to Kogi State flood victims by the Founder, Bishop David Oyedepo.
An inside source disclosed that the Pastor was found dead on a chair in his office in Lokoja.
The clergy man was said to be active during the daily Covenant Hour of Prayer and the devotional service of the ongoing Word of Faith Bible Institute program in the morning.
“We rushed him to Federal Medical Centre, Lokoja where He was declared dead and we still moved him to Kogi State Specialist Hospital where they tried all kinds of resuscitation to no avail.
“This is the first time we will lose a Pastor and a State Pastor for that matter in our station,” said the source.
The development comes amid several reported cases of persons slumping and dying.
In October, an unidentified footballer slumped and died while playing at the Green Field football ground in Lekki area of Lagos state.
In July, Sunday Ogunjimi, a teacher in Ogun state, was said to be attending a meeting of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), following the strike by workers over alleged unpaid allowances, when he slumped and died at the state secretariat.
Meanwhile, in June, Isa Burji, zonal chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Jigawa central, reportedly slumped and died at a hotel in Abuja.
Also, Emmanuel Asufi, an assistant commissioner of police (ACP), in April, was said to have slumped at his duty post and later confirmed dead.
