Dare Adeboye, who was 42 before his demise on Wednesday in Eket, Akwa Ibom was an Assistant Pastor in charge of Youths in Region 35 of RCCG.
Showing his whole-hearted condolences, the Governor released a statement on Thursday through his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Gboyega Akosile.
In the statement, Sanwo-Olu appealed to the family of the deceased, friends, associates and whole members of RCCG to take the demise in good faith.
He said, “No doubt the death of a loved one is usually painful as it is irreparable but we must always take solace in God, especially if the deceased had lived a good life, just like the late pastor Dare Adeboye.
“The pastoral and wise counsel of Pastor D as he was fondly called will be sorely missed by his family and the entire members of RCCG, especially in Eket, Akwa Ibom, where he played active roles as a cleric before he passed on.
“I sympathise with Pastor Enoch Adeboye, his wife, siblings and widow of the deceased and the entire members of RCCG. I pray that God will grant the late Pastor Dare Adeboye eternal rest and grant the family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.”
