Tribute To Overseer Olorunfemi Frank Aguda
Overseer Olorunfemi Frank Aguda happened to be my principal while in secondary school at GSS Omuaran.
He was a very sound Christian. He introduced prayer at the school assembly .
A most humble leader, he played the piano in our students’ fellowship. He exhibited highly enviable Christian virtue.
None of us close to him was surprised to see him emerged as an overseer of one of the frontline Pentecostal churches in Nigeria – The Apostolic Church.
I personally drew a lot of lessons from his practical Christianity. He was a godly disciplinarian.
Interestingly, in later year, we became very close. It was always a blessing every time we go together.
He was with me at the inauguration of Landmark University, Omuaran, where he told some humorous story about my growing up days.
He was not only spiritually strong man, but he was also strong physically for his age. I remember asking him to come to the platform during Shiloh 2016, our annual convocation. I was surprised to see the young man running from far back to the altar.
Even last year December 2020, he drove himself with mama by his side to visit us at Omuaran during Christmas period and was there at our praise night, where he also made some remarks.
My wife and I consider him a sage. A man with a heart for God and served God till the very end.
We will miss him, but we are very assured he is resting at the bosom of Christ in heaven.
My prayer for the entire members of the family is that God will grant everyone the grace to emulate these virtues and build on them and may Christ remain at the center of the life of every member of the family till the end of time.
In conclusion, I say to the departed soul, continue to rest in peace in the bosom of Christ until we meet again at the resurrection morning Adieu!
