Details surrounding the death of Prophet Ajanaku, the former pastor of Tope Alabi has been released.

The founder and pastor in charge of the
Christ Revival Church International located
in Baruwa in Ayobo-Ipaja, Lagos, died in his
sleep on Saturday August 17, 2013.
It was gathered that the controversial
prophet died in his sleep on Saturday after
a nurse administered sedatives to calm
down his nerves after his situation got
worse.
He reportedly didn’t wake up from his sleep.
His dead body was brought into his house
in Lagos from his hometown (Gbogan) on
Sunday evening.
According to sources, the elegant preacher
reportedly fell ill about 8 weeks ago and
after all medical methods to get him well
proved abortive, he was taken to his home
town for traditional treatment.
Throughout his downtime, his church
members were told he’d travelled abroad to
rest not knowing he had been taken to his
hometown.
This was the reason for his absence at the
church’s anniversary on the 18th of July,
2013.
During the church service yesterday, most
of his church members didn’t believe he has
died with many calling his death a hoax.
Most of them argued that he could not have
died, insisting that he travelled abroad to
rest due to his hectic schedules.
According to reliable sources, some of his
church members were hostile to news men
who visited the church to confirm this
report..
Late Prophet Ajanaku’s corpse was taken to
a local mortuary around 11am on Monday
morning.
A member of the congregation was seen
directing another member to arrange for
security personnel to accompany the
corpse to the mortuary.
Church members who trooped to the home
of the man they called ‘Daddy’, were
directed to report at the church at Baruwa
while the top leaders of the church were
planning to take the corpse to the
mortuary.
Late Prophet Ajanaku became popular after
his association with gospel singer Tope
Alabi.
The two split over sex allegations few
weeks before his death.
Tope Alabi who is currently in Toronto,
Ontario Canada was one of the earliest
callers at the residence of the deceased on
Sunday.
In another development, a neigbhour to
late Prophet Ajanaku said his followers
believe he’ll come back to life.
As a result, several prayer sessions have
been held since he died.
“He died since Saturday, but the church
members have decided to keep sealed
lips.Instead, they have engaged in
marathon prayer sessions. They held a vigil
on Saturday where they prayed fervently for
him to resurrect, but nothing happened.
“The church members were shouting:
‘Prophet Ajanaku, wake up’ throughout
Saturday night,” Mrs. Rita Ade said.
Unknown to the public, Late Prophet
Ajanaku was arrested and detained few
months ago by security officials after an
embarrassing public fight with Tope Alabi.
Weeks after his arrest, he reportedly fell ill
and the rest is history.
Late Prophet Ajanaku was a muslim man
with a solid Islamic background. He
converted to Christianity on arriving Lagos
few years back.
According to his profile, the late preacher
tagged Bad boy for satan was denied
access to basic education. He didn’t attend
primary, secondary or university.
“Illiteracy was a big title for him because of
his chronic state. He understood and could
communicate in Yoruba language only.” He
later attended the Winners Church Bible
school
He is survived by a wife, aged mother and
children (a boy and a girl).
