According to him, “I have just lost the man I respect and love the most, bar none, living or dead, except Christ. The man that, in my native language (Itsekiri), I would call my Olayemi. Oritse Ene Dope. To my dear followers, I have lost my grandfather, in whose house I was born and who brought me up as a very beloved son. This will be my last post for the next 3 days. God sparing my life, I will be back at 9AM on Thursday, April 16, 2020.
“One person dies in prosperity, completely comfortable and secure, the picture of good health, vigorous and fit. Another person dies in bitter poverty, never having tasted the good life. But both are buried in the same dust, both eaten by the same maggots”-Job 21:22-26
This life is full of vanities. Do not live for this life alone. Contemplate Scripture and live this life in a way that will make you worthy of entering into the real life without vanity that can be accessed only by faith in God through His Son. That is the exemplary life that my father lived.
Adieu my father, Mr. Peter Etchie-1933-2020.”
