Supporters in jubilation as rumour of Prince Abubakar Audu's ''sudden resurrection'' goes viral
04:54Unknown
There was jubilation in Lokoja this afternoon by supporters of late Abubakar Audu over rumours that the former governor had suddenly”resurrected” from death.
Vanguard can reliably inform that the resurrection story was a complete contrast from the reality here in Ogbonicha where his corpse is lying.
A group of prophets came into the expansive country home of Prince Audu, with a promise to revive him back to life.
One of them even stake his life while assuring the mammoth crowd that has gathered for the burial here of the possibility of Audu coming back to life.
His running mate, Hon. Abiodun Faleke and Sen. Dino Melaye are among the early arrivals here for the burial.
Audu’s family refused to give the prophets access to where Audu’s body was deposited. But the youths forcibly opened the door to give the prophets access, with the hope that the ex-governor will come back to life.
The prophet was forcefully taken into the room by the irate crowd, who joined him in the prayers chanting: ‘Holy Ghost fire’ and ‘Allahu Akbar’.
While the prayers were being said, the grave-diggers were said to have continued with their work.
Not long into the prayers, news spread round the mammoth crowd that Audu has resurrected and wild jubilation broke out.
At the moment, many are celebrating in the streets of Lokoja over the rumoured resurrection, in spite of an absence of veritable proof that Audu is indeed alive.
We are here watching as the drama unfolds.
