How God saved me from aggressive cancer – Oritsejafor

By Paul Dada

Popular Pentecostal  cleric and former President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, has  disclosed that God saved him from an aggressive form of cancer.

Oritsejafor who addressing  his congregation in a video which surfaced online on Tuesday, said: “How do you face cancer and still stand like this? What I have not told you is when I was going to America, full of cancer, you did not know. I did not tell you. I looked normal because that is my way of life.”

Oritsejafor  who attributed his survival to his faith, said  on the day he  was travelling to America to be medically treated for cancer, one of his acquaintances was  travelling on the same day to the UK to get medical treatment for the same disease.  He said while he returned to Nigeria alive, the acquaintance  was brought back dead in a casket.

But the Senior Pastor of Word of Life Bible Church, Warri, Delta State, admonished his audience not to clap for joy as he was mourning his diseased acquaintance. on not to clap or celebrate his survival, as he acknowledged the sorrow of his acquaintance’s passing.

He said, “Please don’t clap because I am not better than him. But God remembered me. He remembered my heart. I have always had a heart for God. I told God, if you save me from this, I will double my service. I will serve you twice more. And he saved me and brought me home”.
