zumarock8: Yekini, allegedly died on Friday after being forcefully whisked away by family members with some Islamic clerics on April 8 (Easter Monday) with claims that he was taken away to be cured of his insanity.

However, one of the aggrieved youths, Yomi Ojo, who claimed to be a friend to the deceased, said that there was no indication that Yekini was mentally imbalance at the time in question. According to him, “the family was not happy with him for sending all his tenants away and living alone in his expansive home without entertaining any of the family members and friends…I have known him for about seven years. Yekini…was a quiet and disciplined man. He loved keeping to himself. But at times he confided in me.”

Mr. Ojo further said “when they came for him, they chained his arms and legs and while struggling to break lose, he (Yekini) sustained bruises all over his body and was blood soaked.”

He explained that “All pleas to be set free fell on deaf ears. His mother, sister, Sekinat; and brother, Wasiu; with two Islamic clerics bundled him into a bus and drove off. He called for help while he was being driven away but those in the neighbourhood were helpless because it was a family issue. We never knew it could lead to his death.”

Another youth, Lasun Olonande, said, “Sometimes ago the family members came with a team of policemen to force him to go with them but he explained to the police that he was not mentally sick as alleged by the family. As a result of this he was left to go. He was an easy-going person and did not like flamboyant life. He was always giving to those in need. The beggars usually lined up in his house to take food.”

One of the aides of Senator Rashidi Ladoja, Nofiu Isiaka, popularly called ‘Aluta,’ who lives in the area, said, “He had girlfriends which he brought home once a while…If he was mad would the girls have agreed to go out with him? We are angry. We know that his house is not our property but we want our temper to die down before the family come around to fight over his inheritance.”

Meanwhile, the Oyo State government has set up an endowment fund for children of the late Nigerian ex-international, Rashidi Yekini. This was made known on Monday after the state executive council meeting by the Commissioner for Youth and Sports, Hon Dapo Lam-Adesina. According to him, the endowment fund, which will be strictly for the children of the late football star, would be managed in conjunction with the family of the deceased.

LoJ: This is just madness!

Anyone believing that this is of GOD, needs to go on retreat for 40 days to learn the ways of the LORD. I'm not a nigerian, but If I were I would be crying day in day out about the Church of GOD i Nigeria. Nigeria is a great country that GOD visited at some time in the past. But greed, lust and money has seduced the so called men of GOD in Nigeria so that instead of serving GOD, they are serving Mammon. And the church is like a flock, without shepherd. How desolate am I, and sorrowful my heart is when I think of the otherwise great nation Nigeria could have been.

To come back to this issue of property: People here are very confused about where the problem is. The problem ain't about a rich man investing money in is country to make some benefit and developing the country by the way. No!

THis is all about, Someone using tithes and offering made by a majority of poor greedy people ( who thinks by giving they'll become rich) to enrich itself. SO THE PROBLEM IS NOT THE PROJECT IT IS THE ORIGIN OF THE MONEY.

When the houses will be sold, where will the profits go? Who is the owner of these projects and properties: The Church or the man of GOLD?

The truth is this: This is a Greedy Pastor, shepherding a greedy flock both worshiping Baal.

Silva79: If you voted GEJ, may God treat ur matters the swift,decisive and urgent way he is treating Nigeria's. AMEEEENNNN!!!

ronkebp: Nobody chooses to be poor, everybody wants to be rich, but their attitude towards life and their life in particular will determine whether they will be rich or poor. 'unseriousness, laziness and procastination' are part of the foundation of poverty.

logicboy: Do you really think that your post makes any sense?

1) First you talk about vision. Vision or goals are good but if you dont have any means to achieve them, the vision is a useless.

2) You talk about God and Moses. The old testament is of little relevance to modern day life. God also told Moses on how to regulate slavery in the old testament.
