Kathy revealed her unwavering faith, saying she was so confident in the power of prayer that she even asked nurses to leave her husband’s hospital room.

The couple, who married in their twenties, were known for their strong ministry partnership and were blessed with three children.

Speaking to their church community, Kathy admitted she is deeply heartbroken and requested continued prayers for herself and their children during this difficult time.

However, while giving her tribute, Obasi-Ike was the first person to refer to Kathy as a bishop and affirmed her.

She was, however, not around to attend the funeral as she had another ministry engagement outside the country.

What did Kathy say during Allan's memorial?

Kathy penned a moving tribute to celebrate her late husband on his first memorial and noted how much she was missing him.

She also wondered how time had flown so fast that they were already counting a year since he went to be with the Lord.
