Residents of Akungba-Akoko in Ondo State have been thrown into shock following the sudden death of a prominent elder of the Cherubim and Seraphim (C&S) Church, Elder Omotayo Ezekiel Fajana, 71, whose lifeless body was discovered in a hotel room just hours before his installation as Head Prayer Warrior Father (Baba Aladura) of a church faction.
The incident has sparked a police investigation, with three persons already arrested as authorities seek to unravel the circumstances surrounding the cleric’s death.
Fajana had travelled to Akungba-Akoko, the headquarters of Akoko South-West Local Government Area, for a church programme at Ogo Orimolade C&S Church along Okerigbo-Ikare Road, where he was scheduled to be installed as the Head Baba Aladura of a faction of the church.
The event, however, turned tragic when the respected church elder was reportedly found dead in a hotel under circumstances police consider suspicious.
