Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, a former president of Nigeria, claimed that only one pastor in his country would probably make a heave.
According to Anaedoonline.ng, Obasanjo made his remarks at the funeral service for the late Dr. Sunday Mbang, CON, Prelate Emeritus of the Methodist Church of Nigeria, in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, when he said that the deceased is the only Christian leader in Nigeria who, in his opinion, is certain to enter paradise.
The late Prelate was not just straightforward, but also a man without emotions, according to the former president, who attended the occasion on Friday as a Special Guest of Honour.

Obasanjo revealed that shortly after his release from prison, he faced pressure to run for president of Nigeria from a number of influential Nigerians he consulted across the country was the late Prelate Emeritus Mbang, and he gained enormously from his advice.
He claimed that due to his candour, the late Prelate Emeritus was a man who always sought his advice. He continued by saying that when Governor Emmanuel Udom was in charge of things in Akwa Ibom State and he needed Mbang’s advice on any pressing matter, he would travel to Akwa Ibom State pretending to be interested in meeting the governor, but in fact he was going to see the late Prelate Emeritus.
According to Anaedoonline.ng, Mbang passed away on Tuesday, May 16, 2023 in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State. He was a former president of the Christian Association of Nigeria, or CAN, and the first black president of the World Methodist Council.
At age 86, he passed away.
