Celestial Mourns Leader Who Passed Away To Glory

The leader of the white garment celestial church Baba Are in Nigeria passed away to glory, according to report his Ikorodu Lagos home was gutted by fire.

The Celestial Church of Christ Worldwide was on Thursday hit by tragedy with the news that the head of its Nigeria Diocese, Baba Are, died from a fire incident, which gutted his Ikorodu home in Lagos State.

E24-7 indicated that the fire, which occurred in the early hours yesterday, was caused by a power surge.

Baba Are’s wife, Iya Salewa and his children, Dare and Kemi were said to have managed to escape the fire, but Baba Are, who suffered from a stroke, which left him immobile, was totally burnt beyond recognition on his bed.

The octogenarian cleric, until his death, was the number three man in Celestial Church’s hierarchy.
