President Muhammadu Buhari has sent heartfelt condolences to
the Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria, and the Christendom in general, over
the death of the former General Overseer, Rev. Wilson Badejo, aged 74.
The president, in a statement by his spokesman, Mr Femi
Adesina, on Sunday in Abuja, described the departed as “a dedicated servant of
God, who led the Foursquare Gospel Church for 10 years.”
He noted that the deceased was ”committed to standing in the
gap for not just his organization, but Nigeria as a whole.”
Buhari prayed that God would comfort the entire Badejo
family.
He urged the family to take solace in the fact that their
father, a veterinary doctor, author, cleric, and public speaker, set a standard
to be emulated by all and sundry.
Badejo died at the age
of 74 following a brief illness.
Badejo was the Foursquare gospel church’s General Overseer
between 1999 and 2009.
