Cele Topman Burnt Beyond Recognition In Fire Incident

Celestial Church of Christ Worldwide was on Thursday, hit by tragedy with the news that the head of its Nigeria Diocese, Baba Are, died from a fire incident, which gutted his Ikorodu home in Lagos State.

Reports from E24-7 indicated that the fire was caused by a power surge.

His wife and his children were said to have managed to escape the fire, but Baba Are, who suffered from a stroke, which left him immobile, was totally burnt beyond recognition on his bed.

The octogenarian cleric, until his death, was the number three man in Celestial Church’s hierarchy.
