Obasanjo Looks Forward to Celebrating Oyedepo’s 90th Birthday
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has expressed his intention to be present at the 90th birthday celebration of Bishop David Oyedepo, the founder of Living Faith Church.
During the recent 70th birthday celebration of Oyedepo, held at the Faith Tabernacle in Ota, Ogun State, Obasanjo noted that he would be 107 years old when Oyedepo reached this milestone.
In his address to the congregation, Obasanjo playfully acknowledged the stages of life, saying, “Today marks your entry into the club of Septuagenarians.
Soon, you will transition to being an Octogenarian, and I will still be here to celebrate with you.
Following that, you will become a Nonagenarian, and I assure you, I will also be here for that occasion.”
He humorously added, “After that, I will leave you to continue your journey, but rest assured that God will always be with you.”
Obasanjo also took a moment to reflect on his longstanding connection to Ota and the significant role that Oyedepo has played in the community.
He reminisced about his farming ventures in Ota, which began in 1979, emphasizing the deep-rooted ties he has to the area and its development over the years.
Through his remarks, Obasanjo highlighted not only the personal relationship he shares with Oyedepo but also the broader impact the bishop has had on the lives of many in the region.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
