I am truly at a loss as to what to write at this point, and I am one human being who does not need to search for words before they come. It is a tragic thing that Agagu died in d first place. But as human beings, we are all bound to die one day. It is a calamity that d plane flying his corpse to Akure had to crash with casualties within d precinct of d airport. But d part of it that is so traumatic is d open glee with which some animals- I won't be classed as a human being alongside those things- are celebrating d accident. Do we have to politicise everything? After 6 years of leaving office, d succeeding government has not openly accused d man of any wrong doing for crying out loud. Or would Mimiko not know d wrongs of that government having served as d SSG for a spell of time? And if he has been adjudged wrong, isn't it d place of d courts to try him and punish him? Are men so daft that they think God would measure out their conjecture of judgement on anybody? Was d corpse of Agagu d pilot that it wanted to take other people with him? Did d pilot leave his family this morning with d intention of not returning back to them? Most of these
people are not from Ondo, and they don't reside there, so what is their bitterness about? Or is it just d normal hatred of d downtrodden for d rich and affluent? What crimes did Pepple Clark commit that he died and his corpse and that of so many others was never recovered in Ejirin? Was he a politician too? What did Waziri do to warrant his plane crashing? Or d little children of Loyola Jesuit rhat died in PH then? Were all their parents politicians? They asked why was he not taken by road? But they always complain of d hold up between MFM and Redeemed on that road. And they did not fail to fight for d rights of Babalakin who had d
concession for d road but didn't work on it. I know Nigerians are embittered-and rightly so- with d ruling class, but Agagu is not ruling
anybody now. And heaping insults on d dead would not change government and governance. I am deleting all those class of people who would cry when their 90 years old father they couldn't afford to feed dies and buy cows for parties, but are jeering d unfortunate incidence that befell d Agagus and Ondo state. They are not deserving of d acronym 'friend'. May d souls of all d departed find rest with Jesus our saviour.
And may d scorn of this people appease d Almighty and forgiving God, that he would look on their sins with compassion, and take d blood of Jesus as sufficient in payment for d remission of their sins. One day, we shall all be no more! ----- H-E Adetope Ademiluyi (former Ekiti state Acting Governor)

DESPITE PLANE CRASH, AGAGU FAMILY TO PROCEED WITH BURIAL ON
FRIDAY
The plane conveying Mr. Agagu’s corpse crashed on Thursday in Lagos.
The family and associates of the late Olusegun Agagu, former Ondo State Governor, have stated their intention to proceed with his burial on Friday as scheduled.
In fact, as a demonstration of the family’s resolve to proceed with the burial of their late patriarch, a wake-keep for the late governor held Thursday night in his ancestral home even as aviation authorities are yet
to release the names of the passengers and crew who died in Thursday’s ill-fated crash.
Mr. Agagu, who died on September 13, was scheduled for burial at his Iju-Odo home on Friday at 11:00 a.m. while his corpse was scheduled to arrive Akure, the Ondo State capital, on Thursday.
However, the Associated Airlines aircraft that was conveying his remains to Ondo crashed on Thursday morning at the Lagos Airport few minutes after take-off.
The spokesman of the aviation minister, Joel Obi, confirmed the death of 13 of the 20 passengers and crew on the plane.
Although the casket carrying Mr. Agagu’s corpse was dented, his remains were intact and taken to the Nigerian Airforce Hospital in Ikeja several minutes after the crash, authorities said.
PREMIUM TIMES gathered that his family at Iju-Odo in Okitipupa area of Ondo have now asked that the corpse be brought to Ondo on Friday morning for burial.
The widow of the deceased and some other members of the family were moved to Iju-Odo around 1.30 p.m. on Thursday.
When a News Agency of Nigeria correspondent visited Iju-Odo on
Thursday, residents of the community were in pensive mood, with many of them gathering in front of their houses discussing the incident.
Meanwhile, St. Paul Anglican Church, Iju-Odo, where the interment mass will hold, has been painted and renovated for the service scheduled for Friday while major roads leading into the town have been rehabilitated.
Mr. Agagu’s grave, located in the church cemetery, has also been decorated to give the former governor a befitting burial.
The reception ground located at Manuwa Memorial Grammar School, Iju-Odo, got a facelift too, with a big canopy erected in the compound.
Femi Agagu, younger brother to the late governor, confirmed to the News Agency of Nigeria that the burial would proceed as scheduled.
Also, the Chairman of the People Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo State, Ebenezer Alabi, confirmed that the burial would take place on Friday, as scheduled.
Mr. Alabi said since Mr. Agagu’s son, Feyi, survived the crash, and the casket was intact, the burial would proceed. He said the family and the party sympathized with the family of those who died in the crash.
When PREMIUM TIMES visited the Akure residence of ex-Minister Olu Falae, whose son, Deji, died in the crash, sympathisers were seen around him, wailing and praying.
The septuagenarian and former presidential candidate could not utter a word, and was just gazing at the sky. Some choristers from his church were seen singing and mourning Deji.
Meanwhile, the former governorship candidate of the PDP in last year’s election in the state, Olusola Oke, said the disasters that have befallen the state have tasked the souls and broke the hearts of the people of the state.
Mr. Oke, who was flanked by other PDP chieftains, said, “At a time we were thinking of given triumphant entry for a peaceful commitment to mother earth, of our great leader, this disaster struck to shake his biological, political and social families to their very existence.”
“While we commiserate with the families of those who lost their lives, we thank God for saving the life of late Agagu’s only son, [Feyi] for the sake of sustaining the former governor‘s dynasty,” he added.
Mr. Oke called for full investigations of the disaster, which he attributed to carelessness or sabotage. He also thanked God that Mr. Agagu’s remains were intact saying, “our leader will still be given the deserved burial part of which had already started”.
Mr. Agagu’s burial ceremony commenced on Monday at the University of Ibadan, where he taught geology before he ventured into politics. A lying-in-state was to be held in Akure on Thursday, and another at Iju-Odo on Friday, before the final burial on Friday. It is not clear if the Ondo State government, which is partnering the family in the burial arrangements, also supported the plan to go ahead with the burial Friday.
The state government gave no inclination of such when it released a statement earlier on Thursday about the crash indicating that one of its commissioners was on board the plane.
Eni Akinsola, the spokesperson to Governor Olusegun Mimiko, could not be reached for comments.

Which Peace? If when you are alive you make people miserable and painful, when you dont die you dont expect your soul to rest in peace. Peace you dont have while living with your fellow human being on earth, it will be far from you also in eternity.

How true is this statement ? I copy it through face b00k....

Do you Know that ONDO-STATE Incumbent
Governors Always Bury Their Predecessors?
Former Governor Onyearugbulem Buried Ajasin,
Former Governor Adefarati Buried Onyearugbulem
and Otiko
Former Governor Agagu Buried Adefarati.
Incubent Governor Mimiko Is Burying Agagu.
Confusion and wonders of Ondo state Govt House.



If you find it difficult you can always google the info....

Haba! Though u may b ryt, but we r not 2 judge!
but we r not 2 judge!.........Bros let us be realistic in our approach with God. Look at Galatians 6.7....God is not mocked whatever a man sow he will reap. Tell me any so called Governor who has not soiled his hand with the bloods of the innocent in their office. Tell me any of the Governor who has respected and feared God in all their dealings. Tell me any of Governor in Nigeria who has never worshiped Satan in their secrets.
""They that sow the wind, shall reap the whirlwind" Hosea 8:7
We cannot live any how here on earth and expect to have rest in heaven. Lets forget this nonsense of May his soul rest in peace when he has never created an atmosphere of peace. i am not particularly about Agagu but any person who live any how and expect to have peace at the bosom of God after his demise here. God is not mocked. "He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him. " Eccl 10:8
