A Nigerian pastor, Uche Ume, who went to Rev. Uma Ukpai’s house for a condolence visit, shared what he noticed about the late preacher’s wife and children.
Renowned Nigerian evangelist and founder of the Uma Ukpai Evangelistic Association, Rev Uma Ukpai, passed away at the age of 80.
Dr Ukpai, known for his widespread crusades and peculiar way of preaching, was highly loved by his followers.
Though he was confirmed to have died on October 6, his death was only made public on October 13, 2025.
His Facebook post read:
“I went with my wife and some of my people to see Mummy Dr. UMA UKPAI and the family yesterday and today. We also worshiped with Daddy Uma’s fellowship yesterday. We were also joined by Daddy Rev. PK. Emeaba. I personally went with a heavy heart, but seeing Mummy, the children, and members of the ministry strong encouraged me, and I joined them in glorifying God for the gift of Daddy Uma.
I never saw Abraham or David in this life — I will see them in heaven — but I’m happy that I saw Daddy Uma Ukpai and related with him as a son. I will still see him on that glorious day when the saints shall gather from all walks of life. Glory!
Continue to rest my father, your boy Uche Ume will remain loyal to your house to Jesus comes.”
