He would be buried at the St. John Anglican Church, at his Iye Ekiti hometown in Ekiti State, sharing same tomb with his wife, who died in 2014.
His son, Folabi told reporters in the deceased’s Osogbo residence that: “Baba’s wish for his burial is that he should be buried almost immediately and I can say that with what we have on ground now Baba should be buried next week Tuesday, 4th August 2020.
“We are going to work in conjunction with his political associates and the southwest governors.
“He is going to be buried at our hometown in St. John Anglican Church, Iye-Ekiti. He is going to share the same tomb with his wife who died in 2014.
“The tomb double-decker and the arrangement between them was that whosoever goes first will be buried underneath and who goes last will be on top.
“Once everything is put in place we shall let everyone known the detail of the burial arrangement.”
