…..What really transpired at the said wedding, narrative of a friend
Pastor Essa Oggory of the Fulfilling World Foundation Church who went viral for allegedly cancelling a wedding in Port Harcourt because the couple arrived late is dead.
He died on Tuesday, February 16 which coincidentally is the same day his wife died in 2020 at age 56.
Few days back, a viral video captured the moment a bride broke down in tears as the congregation of the church ran helter-skelter, after the pastor who was supposed to wed the couple cancelled the wedding because they allegedly arrived five minutes late.
Reports had it that after much persuasion, Pastor Oggory decided to wed them in his office, however, this wasn’t possible and the couple had to wed in an hotel while the wedding was officiated by another minister.
In the latest revelation after his death, was that Pastor Oggory was actually very sick and he even flew down from Lagos to Port Harcourt, Rivers State just to wed the couple.
A statement surfaced online written by Chikodinaka Rita Mosses explaining what allegedly transpired.
Read the statement in parts below:
DO YOU KNOW THE SECRET TROUBLES PASTORS ARE GOING THROUGH?
” For two weeks this Man of God was given a negative spotlight all over the social media for a one sided verdict, and just yesterday Pastor Essa Ogorry, the GO of Fulfilling Word Foundation Portcourt Rivers State, passed away.
” It was said that he cancelled a wedding because the couple’s were five minutes late, how is that even possible or realistic?
” Here’s the truth because this Man was my Pastor while I was in PH, and we’ve been communicating on WhatsApp until after his birthday on the 9th of February, I was even saying I didn’t see his birthday wish on my wall on the 15th February, never knew that was his last day on Earth.
” The said couple insisted that he must be the one to join them, Pastor Essa had come to Lagos for medical treatment he’s been suffering silently without telling anyone, while always looking good and smiling to everyone.
” On that wedding day he had to suspend his treatment and go back to Ph for this wedding, still feeling weak, he could only sit down to wait for the couple for almost ONE HOUR.
” When his strength could no longer carry him, he said to tell them that he’s going to his office upstairs, that they should just come there let him join them in his office, but the glamorously dressed couple who wanted a drama show to their friends and family on their wedding day, took it the other way around and boom, that was the beginning of the spoiling of Pastor Essa’s name all over the social media.
” And even now in death, this Man have become more popular than when he was alive. Pastor Ogorry who just did his wife’s one year memorial church service on the 14th of February, died on the 16th of February, the same day his wife died of cancer in 2020 unfortunately.
” On that faithful day he passed, Pastor Essa who turned 56 on the 9th of February, told his sister that he’s tired of everything and all the problems in his life, that he wants to go and rest, and without any struggle he closed his eyes and died.
” I’ve written as the advocate of the accused and scandalized dead Pastor, I’ve written as his former daughter, I’ve written as his friend, and I’ve written in agreement with his other son’s who are all Pastors on their own, I’ve also written as an Evangelist and a journalist.
My Name is Chikodinaka Rita Mosses.
The whole truth , nothing but the truth from a woman of God who is privy to what pastors go through as l do.”
