Ajimobi’s death: Fear God, nobody goes to grave with money – Bamgbose warns politicians

Ajimobi’s death: Fear God, nobody goes to grave with money – Bamgbose warns politicians


Olusegun Bamgbose, Esq., National Coordinator Concerned Advocates for Good Governance, CAGG, has warned politicians to fear God.

Bamgbose gave the warning in a reaction to the death of a former Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi, a development he described as “a very painful and a sad one.”

The senior lawyer, who prior to the death of the All Progressives Congress, APC, chieftain, declared that it would take serious prayers for him to survive beyond July 7, 2020, said leaders must have it at the back of their minds that death is inevitable.

 This morning, Bamgbose also described the former lawmaker as one of the brightest politicians from the South West, adding that, “The Yorubas have really lost a star, a gem, in fact Nigeria as a whole.”

He added, “He died at a crucial time when his political inputs would have been most needed. It’s really unfortunate to have lost an illustrious son of his political calibre. He will be greatly missed. He was a man to reckon with.

“I commiserate with the people of Oyo State and his immediate family for the sad loss. Death is no doubt a necessary end. One will, therefore, use this opportunity to warn our politicians to fear God.

“They should know that, they will give a full account of their stewardship to their Creator after death. The Holy Bible made it clear that, we came with nothing, and we shall leave with nothing. 

“Our politicians should exhibit the fear of God in whatever they do. They possibly can escape earthly judgment, but that of God, is inescapable.

“They should eschew corruption because, it may seem to be delightful, but at the end of the day, it will be disastrous. Nobody goes to the grave with money. Service to the subjects should be their watchword.”

Olu Of Warri Defends Tradition, Speaks on Christianity

Olu Of Warri Defends Tradition, Speaks on Christianity  The Olu of Warri, His Majesty Ògíamẹ̀ Atúwàtse III, has dispelled the insinuation that there is a conflict between the traditional thrones and Christendom. The monarch, who stated this when he received the Soun of Ogbomoso land, Oba Ghandi Afolabi Olaoye, Orumogege III, in his Palace in Warri Kingdom, Delta State, said that the two institutions were not necessarily antithetical. He also debunked the assumption that traditional institutions were synonymous with fetishism and the worship of creations made by human beings and reasoning. He, however, noted that the two institutions can play complementary role that will contribute to the growth and development of the country. The Olu, who said he was elated by the Soun’s visit, said the new Ogbomoso monarch’s choice of Warri kingdom as his first place of visit was divinely directed, just as his choice for the throne was divinely ordained. He said that they owe i
