My son has gone to be with Jesus – Eucharia Anunobi confirms the death of her only child

Veteran Nollywood actress Eucharia Anunobi has confirmed news that she lost her teenage child, Raymond, to sickle cell anemia.

Speaking to NetNG on the phone, the actress said her son had passed to be with Jesus.

She said:

My son has gone to our place of origin (heaven) to be with our daddy Jesus, waiting for me when I eventually go there at the fullness of time.

Raymond who she had with her ex-husband, Charles Ekwu, in 2002, has been battling with sickle cell anemia, and finally passed at the age of 15.

Asked about how she felt, the evangelist said: “God knows best.”

The actress turned evangelist had recently revealed that she regretted having the son out of wedlock, “It was not a deliberate choice that I have made. It came by chance, it came by mistake. God does not kill His children who have made mistakes. He would rather sustain them and tell them that He is the owner of all things. The Lord has been sustaining me as a single parent. I don’t think about it, all I know is, ‘God, you are the one that created me and the child that you gave to me’. So whatever that is needed of me, it was a wrong choice that I made,” she said.
