After Pastor Azzaman's Death, Evangelist Shares His 2019 Encounter with Late Preacher, Posts Photos

• A Nigerian evangelist said he could not preach or lead prayers at his meeting, as the death of Pastor Azzaman left him in tears
• The evangelist paid tribute to the Kaduna-based preacher and recounted a memorable encounter he had with him in 2019
• He said the earth has lost a general while heaven gained a faithful servant, adding that Azzaman's last words gave him hope that he had seen the glory before his demise

Emeka Francis, a Nigerian evangelist, has reacted to the recent demise of Pastor David Ayuba Azzaman.

In a Facebook post, Francis expressed sadness and grief about Azzaman's death, saying he couldn't preach or lead prayers properly at his meeting as he wept profusely.

The evangelist wondered which preacher would be able to step into the realm Azzaman had operated in before his demise. He wrote:

"The death of this man touched me 😭 Yesterday I couldn't preach in our meeting, even to lead prayers was difficult, I just sat down and started crying. Somebody had to come and take over the stage. I was soaked in tears asking the Lord who will take over from David Ayuba Azzaman.

"Who is that fearless preacher that can step into the realm that this man operated till he died. I stand to be corrected though but I haven't seen a fearless preacher in Nigeria like this one. I'm praying that God would raise men in his order who will even do more than what he did. I know God will not lack men..."

Evangelist's encounter with Pastor Azzaman

In 2019, the evangelist said Pastor Azzaman hosted him in an encounter that made him see another dimension of humility in the late Kaduna-based preacher.

He attached pictures from his 2019 encounter with Azzaman, noting that the older preacher listened and jotted while he ministered. In his words:

"...My encounter with the late Rev Azzaman Azzaman opened me up to the mysteries of life that I have never known before.

"Rev Azzaman Azzaman is not just a Pastor, he is an Apostle, a prophet, a teacher and Evangelist. If you have never sat under his sermon you will not understand what I'm talking about.

"This is one man I do look up to as a source of inspiration and encouragement.

"In 2019 he hosted me, I saw another dimension of humility in him. If you look at the pictures on this post you will see him listening and jotting while I was ministering. Imagine a small boy like me talking and such a great man is jotting Kai it only takes humility for such to happen..."

While stating that the earth had lost a general and heaven gained a faithful servant, the evangelist appreciated Azzaman for being a voice to the voiceless and for being a source of strength and inspiration to many people.
