 Bury me within four weeks of my death - Fayose


Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose has said his body should be buried within four weeks of his death. Fayose also laid out detailed instructions for his burial, including that nobody should visit after he is buried.


He said his body and the burial arrangement should be handled by the Ekiti State Government.


In a six-minute video shared on YouTube by City Edge TV on Saturday, Fayose, who turns 65 today, said: “Remember me for anything. And when I die, let me say this. Death is inevitable. My body belongs to the Ekiti state government… I’m delivering a letter to the governor.”


Fayose added that regardless of when his death occurs, the state government should take charge of his remains.


"Let us say in another 20, 30 years, 15 years, whatever time, for the glory of God. The Ekiti state government takes over my body, and I must be buried within four weeks. Because the state might not be ready within two, three days, we allow them four weeks.”


Fayose added that his children should wear their own clothes and follow the directives of the government at the time of his death.
