Part of the statement read:
“We are deeply touched by the death of Pastor Enoch Adeboye’s son, Dare Adeboye, at 42. But we know that it will pass. This is a trial to test the faith of Pastor Adeboye, his family members, and his followers.”
Similarly, the founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, Prophet TB Joshua, has suggested that God’s time played a role in the sudden demise of Pastor Dare.
The cleric made the suggestion on Friday, May 7, in a condolence message to the Adeboye family published on the Facebook post of his ministry, adding that what matters is not how long people live but how well.
Prophet Joshua also called for a moment of silence over the death of the young pastor.

Okowa, in a statement sent to Legit.ng on Friday, May 7 by his spokesman, Olisa Ifeajika, said the news of the untimely passing of Pastor Dare came as a great shock.
He described the incident as a real tragedy but urged the Adeboyes to be strong as no one could question God.
