Jimoh Ibrahim, the Senator Representing Ondo South Senatorial District has reacted to the death of former Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu.
He urged the family of late Oluwarotimi Akeredolu not to mourn as he’s sure the former Ondo state Governor is going to heaven.
Speaking on Friday, December 29, during a condolence visit to Arabinrin Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, wife of the deceased at their Ibadan residence, Jimoh Ibrahim said it is sure the late governor would make heaven judging by his works while alive. He stated that death only becomes painful if one is not sure if their relative is going to heaven.
The senator said;
“It is normal for us to cry when we lose our loved ones, but Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu ‘s death is not painful. Death is only painful when you are not sure of heaven. So, Aketi’s death is not painful because he’ll surely make heaven.
“Let us console ourselves by his dealings and relationship with people both the high and lowly in the country. As the governor of Ondo State his programmes were people -oriented and related with everyone
“As a Senior Advocate he fought for people’s rights pro bono and pressured all governments at the center to ensure Nigeria is governed on the platform of true federalism. No doubt, we will miss him a great deal for a long time to come.”
