The Founder of Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA), Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo, has reportedly suffered stroke a few months ago and currently recuperating from the illness.

Naija News reported that netizens recently expressed concern over a recent picture of Pastor Biodun, looking pale.

In the photo, Pastor B as he is fondly called was seen with his wife, Modele, and other members of the church who were at Old Trafford, Manchester, England.

After the pictures surfaced online, people took to the comment section to inquire about Fatoyinbo’s health but the church disabled the comment section of the post.

We’re Rejoicing

A source in Lagos who spoke with Naija News confirmed that the clergyman has been sick for a while and has not been ministering at church services.

According to the source, the church is currently celebrating that Pastor Biodun can now stand on his feet and travel out of the country.

The source said: “Most of you don’t know Pastor Biodun was sick. For more than 4 months he didn’t preach in church…didn’t come at all…what you all see now is our own celebration that he can stand up to travel this far.

“We are rejoicing about the battle God has done…He didn’t leave Naija oooo…He just travelled to Manchester last week”
