I’m alive,’ Ebenezer Obey debunks death rumour
admin
Legendary musician, Ebenezer Obey-Fabiyi, has dismissed rumours of his death, affirming that he is alive, strong and healthy.
In a video on Tuesday morning, Obey-Fabiyi refuted the claim with a spirited performance.
Singing in Yoruba, English and Pidgin, he described the news as false.
In the video, Obey-Fabiyi sang, “Hello, my name is Professor Ebenezer Obey-Fabiyi.
Satan, you don lose o, Satan, you don lose o, you don pafuka. Na lie lie you dey talk, you don pafuka.”
The legendary musician, then added, “It is fake news that started a few hours ago claiming that I, Evangelist Obey, have passed on to glory. It is a lie. I am alive, and that is not the word Jesus has written.”
The rumour of his death went viral on Monday, sparking mourning messages from his fans.
However, his personal assistant, Tope Olukole, swiftly debunked the claim during a Monday evening interview with TVC.
Olukole assured the public that the music legend was in good health.
“Let’s set the record straight: Ebenezer Obey-Fabiyi is alive and thriving! He recently celebrated a joyous occasion — the 50th birthday of his second child’s spouse,” Olukole said.
“Rumours of his passing are baseless and entirely unfounded. We’re glad to see him active and well,” he added.
The death hoax came barely a month after Obey-Fabiyi marked his 83rd birthday
