Daniel Donates N5m To Abraham Adesanya Hall Project

Daniel Donates N5m To Abraham Adesanya Hall Project

Ogun State governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel has donated a sum of N5 million  in support of the construction of   an ultra modern church hall at St Johns Anglican Church, Ijebu Igbo in memory of the late Afenifere leader Pa Abrahamm Adesanya.
The governor, according to his Press Officer, Mr Kehinde Onasanya made the donation at a special  thanksgiving service  held  at the late Yoruba leader's church in Ijebu Igbo,   after which he visited Pa Adesanya's masoleum  in company of Adesanya's son Bayo , some members of the family and Senator Biyi Durojaiye among others where prayers were offered.
Otunba Daniel described the donation as a fulfillment of the promise made towards the hall project, stressing the need  to always ensure that “the rites of passage of the late icon is celebrated with success”
The governor described the late Yoruba Leader as a man of valor, courage and honor who epitomized the Yoruba concept of omoluwabi (meaning great virtue), but regretted the absence of such values in the nation's body polity.
 “We should continue to pray for such men of valor and honesty who had a very clean past to serve as a role model to our generation'', said Daniel
He urged  sons and daughters of Ijebu Igbo to continue to live in unity in order to uphold the ideals of the late leader.
Speaking at the occasion, the eldest son of the deceased, Mr Bayo Adesanya thanked the governor for standing solidly by the family '' when papa was alive and after his demise”
The vicar of the church, Venerable Deleola Opeyemi in his sermon had told the congregation to live in the fear of God as the author and finisher of man's faith.
