Doyin Okupe Shares Testimony of Overcoming Cancer Twice

By Muhammad A. Aliyu

Doyin Okupe, former Director-General of the Labour Party (LP) presidential campaign, has shared his remarkable story of overcoming cancer twice, crediting his faith and belief in God for his healing.

Okupe revealed in a testimony video, shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, that he is now completely free from cancer after being first diagnosed with prostate cancer 16 years ago.

In his post on X, Okupe expressed gratitude for his healing and the opportunity to give thanks during a church service.

“It was an awesome Thanksgiving service at The Citizen’s Church today. To the glory of God, I had an opportunity again to witness to the loving kindness and mercy of God in my life. I give all glory to God, Jehovah Raphi, who healeth me,” Okupe wrote.

During his testimony, Okupe revealed that this was his second battle with cancer, and today, he is cancer-free.

“This is my second cancer. I had prostate cancer, a major men’s killer, 16 years ago. Today, I am completely free of cancer,” he said.

The former presidential aide attributed his healing to his strong belief in the Bible and the power of the blood of Jesus, urging fellow Christians to have complete faith in the scriptures.

“There’s nothing on this earth, not even the threat of death, that can shake my heart about the veracity and efficacy of the blood of Jesus,” Okupe said. “Our greatest problem is fear. We must, as Christians, apart from dancing, praising, and worshipping, believe the Bible in totality like a fanatic. Believe the Bible 100,000 percent, and you will benefit from it.”
