Adeboye speaks on death: I’ll die on Sunday after eating pounded yam

The General overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has revealed how he would eventually die.

Adeboye said if rapture does not occur soon, he would die on a Sunday after eating pounded yam.

The revered cleric made this known in a sermon at the Holy Ghost Congress of the church in Ogun State on Sunday, December 10, 2023.

He added that he would die the way one of his uncles died after church service.

Narrating how his uncle gave up the ghost, Adeboye said he (His uncle) died in his house after dancing at a church service.

He revealed that his uncle died inside a toilet while the wife was preparing his meal, adding that the deceased was not sick before his demise.

Adeboye said: “After he finished pounding the yam, he knocked at the door of the toilet, when they opened the door, my uncle was gone; no sickness, no ache, no pain.

“I know somebody will say if we are never sick, how are we going to die and go to heaven? You don’t need to be sick to go to heaven.

“If the Lord tarries His coming, I will go on a Sunday after a good meal of pounded yam.”
