Does this man look 104
Can't you respond without abuse?!! Did I state that your comment was dumb. Smh!
One of the reasons I've limited my engagements on the forum.

And someone says nobody could live up to 100yrs in today's Nigeria just to discredit late Charles Olumo's age
Mama Taiwo was born in 1920 and she is still alive. She was a teacher retired at 55 years in 1975. Empirical and verifiable that's 104 years old.

Is he now in heaven as taught in churches? If heaven is where we go if we die, u do we pray against death ?
We pray against untimely death not death itself.

Indeed he lived a good life to live that old. But I can’t understand why someone will come to this earth and intentionally not to continue his lineage? I mean for everyone who continues his lineage there is hope the ancestors will lead one of his descendants to heaven thus preserving that family name for ages to come. Like proverb said “the righteous shall dwell in the land forever but the we wicked shall be cut off”.

Hmm this Bible verse just made sense to me right now. Indeed God is great. Take the issue of eternal life seriously like pastor righteousness will encourage you to.
God decision to make and not yours....
Your own calling might be to continue your lineage through reproduction and his own may be to save souls.... Respect his decision and wish his soul eternal rest or you pass on

Agbako didn't look 101 though. He looked about 90, I doubt he was older than 94.

This priest definitely looks 100 at least.Likely has better records as well due to baptism, ordination etc
What did you expect from an APC/Tinibu TRIBALISThuh

Their Heads are full of Sh*t! undecided

The Life of a Catholic Priest is well Documented, right from the day he comes out of the Seminary. smiley

That Agbako Man is Nowhere near 100.
An 100year would find difficulty walking and even talking,
just like the Ex American President Jimmy Carter. smiley

And winners are retiring 63 year old bishops. Thus terminating their calling.

Na wa o.
No their calling was not terminated


Though they mortgage it with winners for some years as agreed between him and the owner of winner's, now they can go and mortgage in another church or start their own

Is that all that life has to offer?

Awaken your consciousness. Life is actually beyond the mundane things that cloud the human mind.

I served as an altar boy under Monsignor Oleghe for a solid five years from 1983 to 1988. He was a kind and good-looking man at that time. May his soul find eternal peace.

This is exactly what the Jehovah witness preaches when they say it’s only 144,000 people that will go to Heaven.

Now read the verse you quoted again..” The righteous shall dwell in the land forever but the wicked shall be cut off.”

It means that God will renew the face of the earth and return it to His initial plan which is paradise. God will cut off all the wicked people in the world and the people who keep His commandments will live forever on earth (paradise).

There is nothing like Hell fire where people will be tormented day and night. God will simply cut off ( second death) sinners from the face of the earth and make the earth a paradise where the righteous will dwell forever. The 144,000 people are the people who will be chosen from the 12 tribes of Israel and they will be part of Christ government when he will rule the paradise from Heaven.

How come i am just hearing about this national treasure for the first time shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked RIP to the clergyman, dedication to the vineyard and service to humanity. no be small talk. 2 centennial clergyman from Nigeria gone home to rest within 12 months. first was Baba Aladura of C&S, Now Cardinal Oleghe. May their soul Rest in peace. hopefully does they pass the baton to will do justice to the work they have done.

Hopefully, The catholic church will do his memory justice with an accurate biography. Prayer and Goal is to get to 101 with sharp acuity and health.

I disagree with you...
If his priesthood allowed him to marry a good wife that gives him peace of mind would have lived more than this age..
Women are wrapped gift package, whatever you see in the package becomes your luck.... whether good or bad.
