Renowned Nigerian evangelist and founder of the Uma Ukpai Evangelistic Association, Rev. Dr. Uma Ukpai, has passed away at the age of 80. The Ukpai family confirmed that he died on October 6, 2025. Known as one of Nigeria’s most influential Pentecostal leaders, Rev. Ukpai devoted over six decades to evangelism, spiritual teaching, and humanitarian work.
Born on January 7, 1945, in Ohafia, Abia State, Uma Ukpai transformed countless lives through his fiery sermons and life-changing crusades across Nigeria and beyond. He was also a mentor, founder of several educational and medical institutions, and a pillar in Nigerian Christianity.
