Nollywood Actress, Ini Edo Shares Testimony Of How She Escaped Death At Reigners Church, Uyo

Nollywood actress, Ini Edo, who is also a Special Assistant to the Akwa Ibom State Governor on Tourism, has every reason to thank God for sparing her life.

According to Ini, but for divine intervention through a cancelled flight to Uyo, she would have been a victim of the collapsed church building in the state.

On Saturday, the Reigners Bible Church in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital, had the roof of the building cave in and collapsed. It was during an ordination service and hundreds of worshippers including the state Governor, Udom Emmanuel were present.

Over 60 people were killed.

Ini Edo, also an invited guest was miraculously absent. What happened?

She shared her ‘testimony’ on Instagram:

“2 days ago, I was very bitter about the unreliable nature of some of our airlines cancelling flights without prior notice thereby hindering my plans to attend a church service ceremony held in Uyo. Now out of determination, I took a flight to Calabar with the hope of being in Uyo just in time for the service since the journey between Calabar and Uyo was just about an hour. The journey ended up taking over 7hrs because of an unexplainable traffic. No accident, good road no hitches just a headlock traffic. Whilst in the car, I started wondering why all my efforts to be at the service was being thwarted... then I got a call, that the entire church building had collapsed during the course of the service .... Once again, God had saved me..
My heart goes out to the families of the departed..May the good Lord grant them the heart to bear the loss.

Everyday we see is a blessing..It’s not because we are special or better...It's the exceeding Grace of our Lord Jesus. I am so humbled and grateful to God for preserving me... Happy thanksgiving.....” (sic)
