Nigerian singer Oluseun Anikulapo Kuti, popularly known as Seun Kuti, has recounted a heartbreaking story of a family that allegedly lost a relative after relying solely on faith to address a cancer diagnosis.
In a video, Seun Kuti described how the family of the unnamed patient sought spiritual help even after doctors had confirmed that nothing more could be done.
“Oyibo don tell am say nothing can be done, get comfortable; it’s your time. But the woman no wan d!e na. She was a Nigerian rich woman. She too holds a bar. Na him dey come Nigeria, Adeboye will heal her. Dem go collect place for Redeem Camp. Adeboye prayed Finish… the woman came d!e inside Redeem Camp, the woman’s family couldn’t believe it,” he stated.
Seun further revealed that the head pastor of the church promised to revive the woman after her death, but all attempts were unsuccessful, leaving the family to cope with the financial and emotional burden.
“Na him dey carry her body go inside Adeboye place for Redeem Camp. This was after $250,000 don go down. Adeboye came out of his balcony; he didn’t even come down to meet them. He told them to stop crying. He will go inside to pray for her to wake up. As he pray for one hour she no wake up, e say na God call am, make them dey go house,” Seun added.
The story highlights the risks families face when medical advice is completely disregarded in favour of spiritual intervention.
