Cape Town - A popular Cameroonian pastor has died less than a week after being diagnosed with Covid-19, leaving hundreds of his supporters panicked after the man had laid hands on them in an effort to "cure" them of the infection.
Hundreds of the pastor's followers sang on Sunday morning at Ndifor’s residence that the man popularly referred to as "the prophet" was not dead, but on a spiritual retreat with God, and would return soon. Their singing and prayers were broadcast by several local radio stations. He said that some members of Ndifor’s Kingship International Ministries Church called him to come to the pastor’s aid when they found out Ndifor was in agony, and that when the medical team he leads arrived, Ndifor was having severe respiratory difficulties. The governor of Cameroon’s coastal region said in a release that he deployed police to force their way into Ndifor’s residence when his followers chased medical staff away.
According to Che, the pastor has been laying hands on the sick and claiming that he was able to cure Covid-19.
