Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has issued clear directives regarding how he wishes to be buried, stating that the Ekiti State Government should take full responsibility for his body and all burial arrangements upon his death.
Fayose, who turned 65 today, made the disclosure in a six-minute video shared on YouTube by City Edge TV on Saturday. In the footage, he acknowledged the inevitability of death and explained that he has formally written to the state governor to communicate his wishes.
According to him, regardless of when he passes away, the state government must take custody of his remains and ensure he is buried within four weeks. He noted that the extended timeline is to allow the government adequate time to prepare.
“Let us say in another 20, 30, 15 years, whatever time. The Ekiti State Government takes over my body, and I must be buried within four weeks,” he said.
Fayose also instructed that no one should visit after he has been laid to rest, emphasizing that his burial should strictly follow the guidelines he has set.
