Nigerian veteran Juju music maestro and octogenarian shares his testimony as he survived prostrate
Prostrate, also known as prostatic carcinoma, is a medical condition in men where cancer is formed in the gland cells of the prostrate. Nigeria records more than one hundred thousand cases every year. This condition is rampant in men in their forties and above. Ebenezer Obey shares his story in an interview about how he survived.
“It is by the grace of God that I survived prostate surgery at the age of 82. I thank God for bringing me out of a prostate enlargement surgery operation at Kelina Hospital, Lagos. I thank my friends, followers, fans, and people of God for their prayers. Some people came to visit me in the hospital. I thank them all.
God told me I had not finished what he sent me to do on earth. He said he still had more assignments for me. I am also determined to do more of such work for Him. I will share the full testimony on my 82nd birthday on April 3.”
On surviving prostrate, he intended to release a song, and he made the statement thus: “I also plan to release a song on the issue of prostate enlargement. I will talk about my experience and inform the public. It is a disease that usually afflicts males, and can happen to any man from the age of 40 and above. King Charles of Britain also had it. It is more dangerous when it is cancerous. I am grateful that mine was not cancerous. I am happy that I passed through it, and was congratulated when I survived it.”
His life has been a testimony of God’s grace and favour, as he also underwent major surgery on his two legs two years ago, yet he survived.
