INTRODUCTION
Alfred Oluwafunmiso Samuel Okoko
Fondly known as “Pastor” or “100% Jesus” walked with God, and he was not, for the Lord delighted in the company of His friend so much that He took him.
Born on Sunday, November 7, 1982, in Lagos, Nigeria, Alfred went to be with his FRIEND on Tuesday, January 14, 2025.
In His boundless generosity, God shared His beloved friend with us for 42 years. Throughout this time, Alfred devoted his life to God and to the people God placed around him.
EARLY LIFE
Family Background:
Alfred was born into the family of Pastor D.A. and Prophetess M.A.O. Okoko. He was blessed with five siblings: Afolaoluwabi, Funmilayo, Eniola, Oluwafeyisola, and Mercy.
Childhood Memories:
As a young boy, Alfred often preached the word of God to his friends at school and to those around him. It was from these early sermons that he earned the nickname “Pastor” – a name given to him by different people at various times and places, none of whom knew each other. Remarkably, the same nickname followed him everywhere, a testament to his unmistakable calling.
Not only did Alfred love God’s word, but he also excelled in interdenominational Christian competitions and quizzes, winning numerous gifts and awards for both his church and himself.
He was known for his humility, extraordinary patience, and his unwavering ability to see the good in every situation and in everyone he encountered.
As a child, Alfred was deeply compassionate, often giving away his belongings to others in need, even when he had little himself. When asked why he gave so freely, he would confidently reassure, “God will make provisions for another one.”
EDUCATION
Alfred began his educational journey at Omoleye Children School, Lagos, Nigeria. He later attended Maryland Comprehensive Secondary School in Lagos before fulfilling his dream of becoming a pilot at the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology, Zaria.
He pursued his career with determination and started working with Arik Air, a prominent Nigerian aviation company, in 2010. Over the years, Alfred gained extensive experience, working with other companies like Nestav, Ezuma jets, Dana Airline, and Bing Enterprise LTD, steadily climbing the ladder in his field

Rest on Sir
Bro Alfred is not just a good man but a great man, he surrendered himself to be used by God with everything that was in his capacity.
Meeting him made me see how pleasant it is to be blessed by God, yet very humble, without making one feel less.
I will miss your daily tutelage, as he would fondly say, ha Lekan, Omo Jesu ma ni e.
The way you loved and protected your family, even my family, inspired me about being intentional about building a family filled with the love of God.
A man of excellence in all things. You live on in our heart, your impact cannot be taken away by death. Till we meet again.
Captain, as I always call him, was more than a friend; he was a light, a pillar of faith, and a relentless advocate for God’s work. For him, it was 100% Jesus and nothing else. He didn’t just say it— He lived it, inspiring everyone to pursue God wholeheartedly.
Do I need to talk about his generosity which knew no bounds. He touched lives, not with words alone but through the profound example of a life dedicated to Christ.
Though I grieve deeply, but I am assured he has fought the good fight, finished the race, and is now at peace with the Lord he served so faithfully.
Rest well, beloved Captain.
Captain Alfred was indeed a lover of God and a supporter of his work. He is a role model to many. He was a giver, and an instrumental person to all the success recorded by the Halleluyah Nite Committee.
I will personally miss him.
Till we meet to path no more!
I don’t even know how to start. Alfred was a friend, brother, and a confidant. Ever positive, loving, caring and above all God fearing. You thought me how to love and never be judgemental. You stood in for me everytime I call for help, you never showed how overwhelmed you were even when demands were overbearing for you. You always told me mum Semz whatever you cannot control, just trust God and he will make things Beautiful. You loved my kids just like your own. I remembered the last time I saw you Devember 14th when you brought a study bible for me which i personally demanded as a Christmas gift. Alfred, you were just a sweet soul that left us just too soon. You will be greatly missed buddy. Rest on heavens gain.
100% Jesus indeed.

A servant of God indeed.
A friend of God indeed.
A man who God has shown mercy indeed.

I thank God for keeping you with and around us (the youths of your church) on crossover till He called you home.

My prayer mate, Bro Alfred rest on the blossom of God.
We were together in the Halleluyah Nite Prayer Group, even when we are tired as minister, he will say – Sis Biggy we can still do it. When it comes to the things of God he never tried.
He has lived a life of 💯% Jesus.
We can’t question you Kabioyesi Olodumare….. You know the best for him. Rest on my dear Captain till we meet at the feet of Christ Jesus to part no more.
I met him just once during CLCF convention 2024 . I saw a very supportive husband and a lover of God ,filled with smiles as his wife ministers the word of God to the congregation also I have heard of his Good works from the lips of people .
You are indeed Heaven’s gain. Thank you for all you did to many souls out there. Your legacy will live forever. Rest eternally singing with the Angels shouting Hallelujah.

Humility Personified. Thank you for being a good example to many. Rest well, Sir.
I got a letter from God on Tuesday 14th of January. The letter was about you my dear brother and friend. It was so saddening to see you transit into glory this soon. There are many things to say about your person, your kind heart to many, your love for Jesus, your giving spirit and your maturity in handling matters. Bro, we won’t be mourning like men who are without hope because we are so sure that you are with your Maker. You lived a good life here with us. I didn’t regret knowing you and I am sure one day we will meet at His feet. Rest on, the man who lived for Jesus.
See you in the morning.
A life well spent for Christ and His work.
Bro Alfred was a representation of humility. For the few times I saw him in his lifetime, I saw a God-fearing person. He was such a wonderful gift from God.
May his soul rest in peace!
May the soul of the departed find rest in the Lord in Jesus name.
He doesn’t see anyone as his enemy. He will say I’m sorry even when he’s not guilty.
Though we never met but your heart of kindness speaks and echo in the sphere of humanity. May Almighty God fill the vacuum your absence has created in Jesus mighty name Amen 🙏
Your life was a testament of how God wants us to live here on earth. Modest, Humble and Christ Loving.
Jehovah will watch over the family you have left behind and uphold them.
Rest in Heaven Captain!

I wish someone will wake me up from this dream. You were such a good man Alfred. Thank you for everything.
Words won’t be enough to express this shock, but we take solace in the fact that you loved God. Rest well my brother.
Oluwafunmisho, Ore mi!
It’s so heartbreaking to know that you are no longer with us. You were a good friend and a good person. You embodied the Christian values so well. You never imposed your Christianity on anyone, but every encounter with you was a reminder of what godliness is.
You will be greatly missed, and I pray that those you left behind are strengthened in the knowledge that your life was lived to fulfil purpose.
Sun re, Ore mi!
Captain, saying goodbye is a really tough one but you know what’s suiting about this? We’re sure you’re in a very peaceful place already. Thank you for sharing with us the beautiful gift of you. I wish i had known you earlier and better.

He will surely be missed, He was very humble, simple and generous.
He was so passionate about his family and lovers of God, very diligent and well behaved and organised. Heaven gained a beautiful soul, continue to rest in the bossom of the Almighty
Your kindness was a language of its own, spoken through your actions rather than words. Whether it was your unwavering support, or your thoughtful advice, you always found ways to make everyone feel special.
Though you may no longer walk among us, your spirit lives on in the memories we hold of you, the values you instilled, and the love you gave so freely. Your life was a testament to generosity, strength, and unwavering love.
Thank you for being a shining light. You’ll forever be missed, but your legacy will remain etched in our hearts.
Keep on resting sir.
100%JESUS.
Words can not articulate how amazing you are.
I was not just privileged to know you in person, but I lived with you for years, and I can testify that you are a rare person with a great personality. You are selfless, generous to default, and lover of God and people.
Your life and way of living shone light on my path and gave me essence for living.
You taught me how a Christian family should be like without sitting me down in any class. Indeed, your life is a concordance of good works. You showed me the real definition of love I read in Scripture.
I practically saw you preached with your life, resources, and everything you had. Striving to bring out the best in everyone without discriminating.
So humble and ready to receive anyone with open arms.
Every moment we had together as family will undoubtedly live in my heart forever.
Live on God’s son
Live on dearest uncle
100% JESUS
