Ituah Ighodalo, a senior pastor of Trinity House Church in Lagos, has organised
a candlelight service in the name of Ibidun, his late wife, who recently died
in her sleep.
The service, which held on Wednesday, three days after the
39-year-old socialite died of a heart attack in Port Harcourt, Rivers state,
witnessed both tears and praise-singing.
Among those who were present was the husband of the deceased
himself, who occasionally took to the stage as instrumentalists performed
soulful songs, prayed for him, and consoled the clergyman.
On the same day when Ibidun had died, Ituah had surprised
well-wishers after he officiated a church member’s funeral. He also opened up
on how the news of his wife’s death had “shattered” his life.
Before Ibidun’s death, the philanthropist was spotted in a
viral video hugging her husband and making complimentary comments about how
difficult it was to say goodbye to the clergyman.
Asue Ighodalo, a member of the deceased’s family, had in a
statement, said that details of her burial ceremony and
other arrangements thereto would be communicated.
“As you will understand, this is a difficult time for our
families and we will appreciate some privacy during this time. All information
on burial proceedings will be provided in due course,” it read.
It is however, understood that the remains of the deceased
will be buried on Saturday.
