Tragedy Strikes: Prophet Kofi Oduro Mourns the Sudden Death of His Cousin

A wave of sorrow has swept through the congregation of Alabaster International Ministry, following the heartbreaking announcement by the church’s founder and leader, Prophet Kofi Oduro, on Sunday, June 1, 2025. During a solemn moment in the service the respected preacher shared with his congregation the sudden and tragic loss of his beloved cousin.

According to Prophet Oduro, the death occurred unexpectedly. His cousin reportedly collapsed without warning, sparking immediate panic among those nearby. Despite frantic efforts to rush him to the hospital, the rescue was delayed due to the difficulty of lifting him because of his size. Neighbors were eventually called in to assist, but by the time they arrived at the hospital, it was too late  doctors confirmed he had already passed away.

With visible pain in his voice, Prophet Oduro described the incident as a devastating reminder of the brevity and unpredictability of life. He recounted the shocking nature of the event, highlighting how a person can be alive one moment and gone the next.

“It’s a wake-up call,” he said to his congregation. “Life is short. No one knows when their time will come. What matters most is being prepared for eternity.”

In the midst of his grief, the man of God did what he is known for  turning pain into purpose. He used the emotional moment to call on his followers to reflect on their spiritual lives. With tears in some of the congregants’ eyes and sorrow written across many faces, Prophet Oduro urged them to surrender their lives to God, reminding them that after death comes judgment.

The message was not just a tribute to his late cousin, but also a profound spiritual reflection. He warned against living a life of complacency, urging the church and all believers to stay in alignment with God’s will.

The death of Prophet Oduro’s cousin has touched many across the Christian community in Ghana and beyond. As a well-known and outspoken spiritual leader, Prophet Oduro commands a strong following, and his loss has stirred widespread sympathy. Messages of condolence have poured in from pastors, church members, and admirers of his ministry from various parts of the world.

The Alabaster International Ministry is now in a period of mourning, standing in solidarity with their leader during this painful time. The congregation has pledged their love and support to Prophet Oduro and his family, who are currently dealing with this personal tragedy.

As the church community reflects and grieves, this sad event serves as a somber reminder of the fragility of life. May the soul of Prophet Kofi Oduro’s cousin rest in perfect peace, and may comfort be granted to all those affected by this great loss.
