The Throneroom (Trust) Ministry, Kafanchan, has debunked viral reports claiming its Founder and Vision Pioneer, Apostle Dr. Emmanuel Nuhu Kure, is dead.
A statement issued on Wednesday by the clericโs media aide, Richard Pius Garba, described the reports as โfalse, misleading, and reckless,โ warning that the misinformation had caused panic among followers and well-wishers both in Nigeria and abroad.
โOur attention has been drawn to a false and misleading story making the rounds on Daily Post and Gistlover, alleging the demise of Apostle Dr. Emmanuel Nuhu Kure. This publication is not only false but deeply irresponsible,โ Garba said.
He clarified that the confusion arose following the announcement of the death of a Catholic priest, Rt. Rev. Msgr. Emmanuel K. Kure, by the Archdiocese of Kaduna, and not Apostle Kure of Throneroom Ministry.
โWe wish to categorically state that Apostle Dr. Emmanuel Nuhu Kure is alive, healthy, and actively carrying out his spiritual and humanitarian responsibilities,โ he stated.
Garba further condemned the use of Apostle Kureโs photograph in the misleading report, describing it as โa violation of privacy and journalistic ethics.โ
He called on the publishers of the erroneous story to immediately retract the publication, issue a public apology, and take down all related images and materials.
โWe urge the general public, especially members of the Throneroom family, to remain calm and disregard these rumors in their entirety,โ he added.
The statement also urged media organisations and content creators to uphold ethical standards by verifying facts before going to press.
Apostle Emmanuel Kure is a renowned Christian leader and advocate of national and spiritual transformation in Nigeria.
