My Body Should Be Buried Within 1 Month When I Die — Fayose

Former Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose, has said that his body should be buried within four weeks of his death.

Fayose also laid out detailed instructions for his burial, including that nobody should visit his family after he is buried.

He added that his body and the burial arrangement should be handled by the Ekiti State Government, and not his family.

In a six-minute-long video message, which has gone viral on social media on Saturday, Fayose said: “Remember me for anything. And when I die, let me say this. Death is inevitable. My body belongs to the Ekiti State government… I’m delivering a letter to the governor.

“Let us say in another 20, 30 years, 15 years, whatever time, for the glory of God. The Ekiti state government takes over my body, and I must be buried within four weeks. Because the state might not be ready within two, three days, we allow them four weeks.”

Fayose added that his children should wear their own Aso-Ebi clothes and submit to the directives of the State government at the time of his death.

“My grandmother’s home, the mother of my father, I’ve made the garden there. I should be laid to rest there. After my departure, nobody must come there again. Allow me to go. If you want to show me love, if you want to take care of me, do so now,” Fayose stated.
