President Buhari, however, commiserated with the Christian community, “particularly Okposo’s colleagues in gospel music and the younger generation, who have over the years identified with his elevating style of praise and worship.”
He, therefore, prayed for the repose of the musician’s soul, urging the family to find solace in his investments of love.
