Akolade Arowolo, a youth pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, who killed his banker wife, Titilayo, with 73 other inmates of the Kirikiri Maximum Prisons, yesterday, sought pardon under the Lagos State Prerogative on Mercy conferred on the Governor, claiming they are reformed and should be pardoned.

Akolade, who was sentenced to death by an Ikeja high court three years ago after he was found guilty of his wife’s murder on June 24, 2011, was seen in prison, pleading that he needs another chance to right his wrongs.

His pleading came as the Committee on Prerogative on Mercy said that the state will not fail to exercise its prerogative on prisoners, who proved to be reformed. Arowolo was among 74 prisoners called out by the committee, led by Professor Oyelowo Oyewo, set up by the governor to review their applications.

The committee was on a fact-finding visit to the prisons to have first hand information from the inmates that are eligible for mercy and pardon.

Arowolo, who delivered a remark on behalf of his fellow inmates, pleaded for mercy, stressing that they are all remorseful and have learned from their mistakes. .

Chairman of the committee, Oyelowo, said the governor will act on the committee’s recommendations based on the rules and guidelines set by law for the committee to conduct its work.

no pardon better than prison bros...... murder is murder

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time...

Ogbeni, enjoy your watery beans jare..

Anybody still considering RCCG a house of God had better wake up oh!

Look carefully at RCCG and see that the more you look the less you see.

In the bible it says that everything was shared amongst those who had and those who did not.

Acts 2 (KJV)
44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.
46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread

Look at the RCCG pastors, they are rich and their congregation poor.

Just the fact that RCCG put their Pastor into govt and the killings of Christians increased in Nigeria,
should tell you that something is wrong with RCCG.

MAKE UNA SHINE UNA EYES OH!
NOTHING OF GOD DEY RCCG FROM GOD!

No one is above the law, he should be sentenced to death by hanging.

this guy shay he was denying

Take am your father. You kill person you come dey ask for pardon. No be only pardon.

Ok

Sai go be

I don't think her family thinks so

oga oooo, any way, Judgement is of the Lord.......

May God help us all

Afonja pastor
he should be killed by firing squad

Too early to pardon him

He should be hanged. Criminals wll always beg. How could you stab a fellow human being?
Wages of sin is death.

He should remain a Pastor for all Youths in the Prison. Dont release him.

Condemned to death beg ke guy just accept ur fate

Pardon him abeg.

Wat is he doing in d last pic? Kabashing? Oga it's late already. He'll do better in prison, in leading fellow inmates to Christ

Look

Shut up. Anyboby considering you a human being should better wake up.
so because of one isolated case committed by one member of the church, the whole church should suffer for it.
If your brother commits a crime, ur whole family should suffer for it.MUMU

No one is above the law.

Do your time bro

Na now him eyes clear. He brutally murdered his wife in a cold blood. Now he believes he is reformed , what was he thinking then and what does he teach the youths he was pastoring?

The imprisonment was for a crime "Murder"
Don't involve in crime if you can't serve jail term

kolomental

I am waiting for the "don't judge a man of god no matter what" crew.

Pardoning a cold-blooded killer will send a wrong message that
you can commit murder and get pardoned in 3 years.

He should be sentenced to death by this
