At the church auditorium in the Ibafo area of Ogun State, a female worshipper named Bisi Adewumi of the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries reportedly slumped during a prayer session.
According to the Ogun State Police Command, the worshipper was a 75-year-old woman who eventually passed away while undergoing care at a government hospital in Sagamu.
The police said that on Friday, Pastor Ekikere Esiere, the Head of Security at the prayer city situated along the Lagos-Ibadan Motorway, reported the incident to their Ibafo division.
According to the command, Esiere reported that the dead were taken straight to the church clinic for medical assistance after she fell at approximately 5:30 p.m. on Thursday.
