Before his son began walking, the nurse of his second child asked him if he truly prayed for people to be healed. In the clip, he affirmed that he did, and the nurse then asked why he couldn’t pray for his son to walk.

Rev. Uma Ukpai further explained in the video shared by Ebuka Songs that he went to God in prayer, seeking guidance on what to do.

God instructed him to sing praise and worship. After singing, the cleric noted that when his son woke up, he shared a dream in which angels took away his crippled legs and replaced them with new ones.

Following the announcement of the cleric's passing, an old prophecy about his death resurfaced online.
