President Muhammadu Buhari has described the departed former General Overseer of Foursquare Church in Nigeria as “a dedicated servant of God.’’
Aged 74, Dr. Wilson Badejo who had led Foursquare Gospel Church for 10 years died recently.
In a statement on Sunday morning by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, Buhari noted that the late clergyman was committed to praying for not just the church but also Nigeria.
“President Muhammadu Buhari sends heartfelt condolence to the Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria, and Christendom in general, over the passage of the former General Overseer, Rev Dr Wilson Badejo,” the statement reads.
He said the clergyman was committed to standing in the gap for not just his organization, but Nigeria as a whole.
“President Buhari prays that God will comfort the entire Badejo family, urging them to take solace in the fact that their father, a veterinary doctor, author, cleric, and public speaker, set a standard to be emulated by all and sundry.”
