The Senior Special Assistant on Media to the Delta State Governor, Mr. Ossai Success, has expressed his disappointment over the online mockery directed at Pastor Jerry Eze, following the death of Nollywood actor Alex Ekubo.
Pastor Jerry Eze, the Lead Pastor of Streams of Joy International, came under intense online attack after a photo of him praying for the late actor resurfaced on social media. The pastor was mocked by some for not being able to heal Ekubo, who had been battling cancer before his passing on Tuesday.
Reacting to the criticisms, Ossai Success took to his official Facebook page to defend the pastor. He stated that God still performs healing miracles, regardless of the outcome, and emphasized the importance of faith. He wrote:
“I’m disappointed in those mocking Pastor Jerry Eze for praying for Alex Ekubo, just because he still died of cancer. Whether you like it or not, God is still in the business of healing and miracles. Don’t laugh your way to self-destruction. The fact that Alex was prayed for doesn’t mean he couldn’t die. God knows what is best.”
The comments by Ossai Success come amid a broader debate on social media about the role of faith and prayer in the face of illness and death.
