I doubt the pastor really abstained from food and water, and made it to 25 days before his body started to shutdown. He definitely had secret liquids during his silly stunt, if it even happened, which is doubtful.
The only source is one BBC report and the BBC have fallen for false stories from Africa numerous times in the past. There are no images or video of the fast, and there's no info of the pastor or the church before his supposed death. Fishy.
