An
octogenarian, Samuel Kogberegbe, told journalists on Friday that he
has been sleeping inside a coffin for over forty years now.
Kogberegbe, the founder of Holy Michael Church of the Lord (Aladura),
in Egbe, Lagos, who spoke as part of activities to mark the church’s
50th anniversary which holds on Sunday, 3 June, 2012, said he had slept
in the coffin to remind himself of life’s vanity and that one day, he
would die.
He said his action was also to teach Nigerians to be conscious about
death and thus change their negative ways of life. “I believe that
death is certain and I am going to end in that coffin,” he said.
The cleric also declared that former President Olusegun Obasanjo was
correct to have called Nigerian lawmakers armed robbers at a function
in Lagos recently. According to him, Obasanjo’s description of the
country’s lawmakers as armed robbers was correct in every sense of
reasoning.
He accused the lawmakers of not having any feeling for the suffering
masses that voted for them, and warned church leaders to abstain from
evil practices, claiming that only through this would they be able to
salvage the country.
