Nothing Happened To Me, I’m Alive – Abiara Debunks Death Rumour
The founder of the Christ Apostolic Church of Christ (CAC) Agbala Itura worldwide, Prophet Samuel Abiara, has debunked news of his rumoured death.
Abiara, in a telephone chat with The Punch on Tuesday, however, prayed that God forgive those behind the rumour.
He said, “Nothing happened to me. At least you know I am alive since you’re speaking to me. People are just talking nonsense. I pray God forgives them.”
In a separate statement, the cleric said it was unfortunate that the fake news emanated from a journalist.
“This is a false story and it is shocking that a journalist can publish a lie without proper vetting of the information. A journalist whose job is to write true stories should not engage in this kind of false information.
“This caused a lot of consternation all over the world. Fake news is not the way to gain readership or follower-ship. We hereby demand a retraction or apology from the publication posted on the same blog within 24 hours to avoid any other legal action,” Abiara said.
