Renowned evangelist and founder of the Uma Ukpai Evangelistic Association, Rev. Dr. Uma Ukpai, has passed on.
He was 80 years old.
Sources from the Ministry on X (formerly Twitter) confirmed that the revered cleric passed away in Lagos, marking the conclusion of the career of one of Nigeria’s most influential Christian leaders and evangelists.
Dr. Uma Ukpai, who dedicated decades to serving the body of Christ, was highly respected for his “deep faith, powerful healing crusades, and unflinching commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ.”
His ministry, which reached across continents, brought “salvation, healing, and hope to millions across Nigeria and beyond.”
Born in Abia State, Rev. Ukpai rose to national recognition during the 1970s and 1980s through his vibrant preaching and miracle crusades that attracted thousands.
He was also one of the founding fathers of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), an organization that united Pentecostal and Charismatic churches nationwide to foster revival and spiritual growth.
At the time the report was filed, his family had “yet to issue any public statement on his demise.”
