A native doctor who woke up three days after his death, Godwin Ugeelu Amadu, has narrated his experience in what he believes is heaven.
Amadu, who says his experience was a miracle, explained how he was received into heaven by angels and how he met a childhood friend who had died many years before.
He gave the friend’s name as Choko Aguma.
As ‘The Nation’ reports, Amadu had caused panic when he woke up at the point of death.
The 59-year-old was said to have been confirmed dead by doctors at a private hospital at about 6 am on September 5, 2022, following which he was covered up and wheeled into the mortuary as doctors and family members awaited the arrival of his Abuja-based eldest son, Mr. Jacob Amadu.
Jacob also confirmed the story, saying all who had gathered for the burial ran away when the father ‘resurrected’.
Amadu is quoted as saying, “I thank God that he has given me life again after tasting death. It is a miracle that God gave me a second chance and I think I will dedicate the days he has given me to live again to worship him and preach his gospel.
“My journey to heaven was a tranquil one. I feel very confused about what God has done to me. All I can remember for now is that I lost my memory when I was sick, but people later gathered in my village to mourn my passing.
“The cloud opened up and I saw something like a giant golden satellite suspended in space. I wouldn’t know whether this is what the bible calls heaven, but there I was greeted by a 75ft tall angel who stood in front of the gate.
“The angel had a beautiful sword and wore something like golden hair. As I looked round, I discovered that there were two other angels behind him holding pamphlets and books containing the words of God.
“The three angels had a brief discussion among themselves and later allowed me into the city of heaven.
“On entering the city, I met a childhood friend who died 22 years ago. His name was Choko Aguma. He was the one who took me round the city where everybody was committed to worshipping God
