When Pastor Solomon Komolafe of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Winners Assembly, Ibadan, Oyo State, set out for church on February 4, 2013, he was hale and hearty.
But his parish was thrown into chaos moments later when Komolafe slumped after leading the congregation in a prayer session and died right on the altar. The Redeemed family is also in shock!
Pastor Komolafe died nine months after one of his daughters lost her life in an auto crash around May 2012. One of the children of the deceased, Funsho, told Punch that Komolafe’s death was shocking and unbelievable. He said with his father’s death, it had become double calamity for the family.
Funsho said the 69-year-old Pastor did not have any terminal ailment. He stressed that he and other members of the family had yet to come to terms with the sad incident.
“My father, Pastor Komolafe, popularly known as Jack Solo, slumped right on the altar. The incident was immediately after he led the congregation in a prayer session. He slumped and died on the spot,” he said.
Funsho eulogised his father’s virtues, saying he was a disciplinarian, industrious, compassionate, philanthropic, pious, accommodating and exemplary leader.
Pastor Komolafe, an indigene of Ikere Ekiti, Ekiti State, was survived by his wife, Adewunmi and three children: Oluwafunsho, Abiodun and Oluwaseyi.

ReplyDeleteOh Yes! Death can come any time and anywhere. The way one dies does not REALLY matter. Suffice it to say that Death is a gate way to fullness of life for those who believe in the risen Jesus. This is because the almighty God will cause you to rise again. May the almighty God grant the soul of Pastor Solomon Komolafe, eternal rest, and also grant his family the fortitude to bear this lose, in Jesus name, Amen. Regards, Engr Nzete.
