Nigerian-born pastor and founder of the now-defunct SPAC Nation, Tobi Adegboyega, has given a health update following cancer surgery.

In a video message, he said he is recovering well and preparing for the next phase of his treatment, which includes chemotherapy.

Adegboyega expressed gratitude for the support from his congregation and loved ones, noting that his family is stronger than ever and the church is thriving.

Despite the health challenge, the cleric said he remains determined and courageous, choosing to confront his diagnosis head-on.

He said, “This is proof of life. I’m alive and I’m recovering. I have gone through the surgery, and then there is the chemotherapy treatment afterwards. 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.

“I’m grateful for the prayers and support. I’m recovering, the church is thriving, the family is stronger than it was,” he said.

He also mentioned plans to open a new business, which was built without any external investors.

“God has blessed us with more people, and you will see the business we are opening. We built the business ourselves without any investors. I just made this video to assure you that I’m recovering well and I’m fine”, he added.

In June, the UK-based cleric revealed that he had been diagnosed with cancer and had undergone the surgery required.

“I have been dealing with cancer for the past few months, or maybe more. And I just had a major surgery. And that is why I am not there today. I feel the verdict to continue to live was given to me by God,” he said. (The Nation)
