Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose has directed that his body be buried within four weeks of his death.
Fayose also set out detailed instructions for his burial, including a request that no one should visit after he is laid to rest.
He stated that both his body and all burial arrangements 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.”
He further noted that regardless of when he dies, the state government should assume responsibility for 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,” he added.
Fayose added that his children should dress in their own clothes and comply fully with the directives of the government at the time of his death.
