A deacon at the Evangelical Church Winning All, Onikoko, Abeokuta, Ogun State, Francis Ogunnusi, has died while preaching in the church on Sunday.
The late deacon was the Baale of Onikoko community, near the Panseke area of Abeokuta.
NewsmakersNG gathered that Ogunnusi was on the pulpit on Sunday preaching against the spate of ritual killings in different parts of the country.
In an online video seen by NewsmakersNG, the deceased was heard warning those killing others and using their blood for money ritual, saying when they died, the money would be spent by other people.
Ogunnusi, while preaching in Yoruba, said, “The money you make through unlawful means, killing people, sucking human blood, when death comes, it will belong to another person.”
However, as his English language interpreter was about repeating his message, Ogunnusi fell with the microphone in his hand.
This led to commotion in the church auditorium, as the congregation made frantic efforts to revive him.
He was eventually rushed to the Federal Medical Centre, Idi Aba, Abeokuta, where he was pronounced dead.
