It has been ten years now since popular Pastor Bimbo Odukoya passed on. Bimbo who was famous for her ‘single & married’ talk series, died in the ill-fated
Sosoliso crash on December 10th 2005.
Her husband, Pastor Taiwo of the
Fountain of Life Bible Church, who is now married to a South African
lady, remebered her by sharing this message on ig moments ago:
“It
is exactly ten years since the grim incident that led to the passing of
my late wife, ‘Bimbo Odukoya. Yet, as I look through the years, I am
awash with feelings of gratitude. God, in His character, has been
faithful. I am particularly grateful for the life that ‘Bimbo lived and
the legacies she left behind.
It is incredible that ten years
after her passing, her teachings continue to impact families, and the
initiatives she drove while with us, are still here, touching the
nations. Indeed, only God could have chosen an eager teenage girl and
built her into a woman of international repute, to His glory alone. Only
God could have given such a unique assignment and given the grace to
run with it. And only God could have determined when the curtains were
drawn. If there is therefore any lesson we must consciously strive to
remember, it is that there is a divine calling and assignment on every
life God created. As we celebrate ‘Bimbo today, let us stop to ask
ourselves: ‘am I truly in the place of my assignment? am I living the
life God intended?’ This should drive your life’s philosophy as it did
hers. The world will celebrate your influence in Jesus name”.
Meanwhile Access Bank honored her with a post humours award today in Lagos, and her daughter, Tolu picked it up in her honor.
“10
years today Mum!! You are forever loved and missed. Till today, I still
hear of the lives you touched. You were and still are one of a kind.
❤️❤️” Tolu’s younger sister, wrote.
May her soul rest in peace!
