“We were shocked and everybody was jittery as the service abruptly came to the end. Some people, especially, the elderly people were still in shock as I am talking to you now. No one can say anything about his death. He is not a politician, if he is one,we would have been thinking that his political opponents carried out the act, but as it is now,the church has been deserted, except some few people who were with the Pastor” a source told journalists.
The deceased residence at Kazeem street,Shokas area,Oke-Sopen in Ijebu Igbo has now turned into a Mecca of sort as sympathisers trooped to the house to offer condolences.
Otunba Tola Okuneye is survived by six wives and over 20 children.
