The passing of a respected Christian leader is a solemn event, so the tone should be respectful rather than celebratory.

The Founder and General Overseer of All Christians Fellowship Mission (ACFM), Rev. William Uzochukwu Okoye, has passed away.

According to a statement issued by the church’s Board of Trustees and National Executive Council, the renowned cleric died peacefully on Wednesday, July 15.

The statement, signed by Rev. Godwin Tsee on behalf of the mission’s leadership, described the late Rev. Okoye as a devoted servant of God who dedicated his life to advancing the Gospel, mentoring believers, and serving humanity with unwavering commitment.

Rev. Okoye, who also served as the former Chaplain of the Aso Villa Chapel, was widely respected for his impactful ministry, spiritual leadership, and steadfast commitment to Christian values. Throughout his years of service, he touched countless lives through preaching, discipleship, and humanitarian efforts.

His passing has been received with deep sorrow by members of the Christian community, friends, associates, and admirers across Nigeria, who remember him as a humble leader, faithful minister, and passionate advocate for the Kingdom of God.

The leadership of All Christians Fellowship Mission expressed gratitude for his remarkable legacy of faith, integrity, and selfless service, noting that his contributions to the growth of the church and the body of Christ will continue to inspire future generations.

Further details regarding his funeral arrangements are expected to be announced by the family and the church leadership in due course.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.
