Nigerian-born UK-based pastor and founder of The Nxtion Family, Tobi Adegboyega, has shared a positive health update following his recent cancer surgery. In a viral video, the famous clergyman confirmed that he is alive and recovering well, preparing for the next phase of his treatment, which includes chemotherapy.
Adegboyega revealed his cancer diagnosis a few months ago, stating that he has since undergone a major surgery to fight the illness. He expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support and prayers he has received from his congregation and well-wishers, which he said have been a source of strength during his ordeal.
The pastor also touched on the cultural perceptions of illness, noting the common reaction in Nigeria. “This is proof of life. I’m alive and I’m recovering,” he said. “When you say this to Nigerians, they will say it is not your portion in Jesus’ name, but it was my portion, and I have faced it like a man should.”
Adegboyega, who gained prominence for his unconventional ministry and lavish lifestyle, stated that despite the health challenge, his faith and resolve remain strong, and his ministry is thriving. He also appreciated the public for their prayers and support.
