However, for the past two years, Pastor Nomthi Odukoya had been battling with cancer which eventually claimed her life.
Pastor Odukoya announced the death of his wife on his Instagram page.
“She battled cancer for the better part of two years, she stood on the Word of God and she fought.
“She gave me 11 beautiful years of marriage and two wonderful boys, who I know will be very significant in life.”
Also according to a statement by the Fountain of Life on Tuesday evening, the wife of the Senior pastor succumbed to cancer at an undisclosed hospital.
According to the statement: “With deep regret and gratitude to God, we have to announce the passing of our Senior Pastor’s wife, Pastor Nomthi Odukoya.
“She battled cancer for the better part of two years, she stood on the Word of God, and she fought.
“We loved her with all our heart, but who are we to fight with the will of God.
The truth is, at one point in our lives, we all will have to say goodbye. So for now, till we meet again in glory, Goodbye Pastor Nomthi.”
