REMAINS OF MAMA SERAH OYESIJI LAID TO REST IN IGBOJAYE AMIDST ENCOMIUM
The ancient town of Igbojaye in Itesiwaju Local Government Council of Oyo State witnessed a poignant ceremony as distinguished personalities, traditional rulers, clerics, political bigwigs, family, and friends converged on the First Baptist Church Igbojaye to pay their last respects to the departed matriarch, late Mama Serah Towobola Asande Oyesiji.
Late Mrs. Serah Oyesiji was the mother of Reverend Apostle Gbade Oyekola Oyesiji of Dynamic Light of God, Iseyin. Speaking at the epochal event, Pastor Emmanuel Olushola Oluokun, in charge of the First Baptist Church Igbojaye, themed his message "How do we escape 'the way out of God's incoming anger'", quoting from Hebrew 2:3 and Genesis 3:19. Pastor Oluokun noted, "The people of the society have missed the way of God by engaging in immoral acts and prevailing ungodly attitude."
He emphasized, "Every soul shall taste death and will also give account of their life hereafter. The reward of paradise awaits the just and the righteous ones, while those who engaged in ungodly acts will reap eternal punishment in hell." Pastor Oluokun admonished the congregation, saying, "Life is ephemeral and temporal, hence the need for everyone to have a rethink and live a virtuous life."
Reverend Apostle Gbade Oyekola Oyesiji, a son of the deceased, alongside his brother Pastor Gideon Oyesiji and Pastor Mrs. Serah Modupeola Oyesiji, spoke on behalf of the family. They thanked God for the impactful life worthy of emulation lived by their late mother, describing her as "a caregiver, disciplinarian, and devoted Christian who lived a selfless life." Reverend Apostle Oyesiji urged family members "to love one another and be their brothers' keeper."
Notable attendees included the Oluigbo of Igbojaye, His Royal Majesty Oba Zachieus Olatunji Oladimeji, CAN Chairman Iseyin chapter Pastor Yemi Ajao, Rev Dr. Ruben Bolaji, immediate past chairman Itesiwaju Local Government Hon. Ojo Bolaji Akintola, Pastor Farayola, Rev S.A. Adunola, Rev Ogunsola, Pastor M.A. Adeagbo, and Rev G.O. Oyewusi, alongside members of the Dynamic Light of God Church from Iseyin and Baasi branches.
The ceremony was a celebration of a well-spent life, with tributes underscoring Mama Serah Oyesiji's devotion and impactful legacy.
