He said:
“It was spiritual. The spirituality in it is that he was convinced that one day, death would come. He said at the introduction of the sermon that if he was privileged to preach again because I assigned him to preach maybe once in a year or twice, he would conclude that sermon on death.
Pastor Ogundiya further explained that the deceased was a healthy man who usually takes his health seriously.
He stated that he had seen him purchase medicine worth N20, 000 because he was a cardio patient. He also revealed that the deceased does regular exercise to keep his body fit and steady during the week.
