At the funeral and thanksgiving service organised at Iroyin Ayo Baptist Church, Iseki Akala, Ede, the presiding pastor, Rev. Gbenga Olorode, said the lives of human beings on earth are very short.

Taking his sermon from the book of Job chapter 14 verse 1-6, Olorode said every man born of a woman has very few years to live, while urging all to make their way straight with God while still living.
