Why Tope Alabi, Bola Are, Family Members Were Missing From Prophet Ajanaku's Burial

I've been asking questions about why gospel singer, Tope Alabi and other notable musicians who are close to Prophet Ajanaku decided to shun his burial, as in they all failed to show up to pay him last respect.

A lot of people were surprised that Tope Alabi didn’t come to the burial of her former Prophet who she has always dedicated most of her albums to. Some of those whom the elders of the church were expecting to see were Sunny Ade (KSA), Bola Are, Shola Allison, Opelope Anonting e.t.c. Guess what none of them showed up.

Even family members failed to show up. When the event kicked off at past 8am on Thursday 21st of July 2014, many were expecting to see the immediate family members of the deceased but to everyone’s surprise, none of them was on ground.

Investigations revealed that Prophet Ajanaku had 4 siblings but none was there to bid him Goodbye. A top church member who doesn’t want his name mentioned revealed to this magazine that it has to do with properties of the late prophet. We gathered the sharing formula for properties was not agreed on.

Some also said that it was Pastor Joy Ajanaku who didn’t involve them in the final burial as she picked the July 17 date herself. All these controversies which was never put to rest 11 months after his death must have been one of the reasons they never attended the event.

Even one of them who is a strong politician in Gbogan and a Federal Lawmaker didn’t come. Though he was at the residence the day it was reported that he died. Two distant family members (a man and a woman) who were in attendance failed to disclose their names to this Magazine.

Why did Honourable Ajanaku opt out at the eleventh hour? This is one of the questions we didn’t get answers to.
