DOYIN OKUPE EULOGISES ALAMIESEIGHA,CONDEMNS DISRESPECT FOR THE DEAD

Former SSA Public Affairs to President Goodluck Jonathan Dr Doyin Okupe has eulogised late ex governor of Bayelsa State DSP Alamieseigha.He stated this on his facebook page.

Here is what he has to say:

"Alamieyeseigha was my friend. A good man.
A great man. A lover of his people. They reverently refer to him as The Governor General of Ijaw Nation. And truly he was.
When Goodluck Jonathan 's hope of succeeding the late President Yar'adua was in jeopardy, I know what he did. I know the burden he bore. I know the struggles and travails he went through. He humbled himself
He silently and strenuously pleaded with friends and foes from all over the nation.
Notwithstanding the fact that the resultant effect of his efforts will be to promote his subordinate to a political level that will forever be above him and a height he will never attain himself.
This is a character traits uncommon among politicians. Many who believe they must be the only star in the firmament.
Also like a good Christian he openly, publicly
and sincerely forgave President Obasanjo who was his jailer.
Alams my friend Alams, "How indeed are the mighty fallen and the weapons of war perish.
Tell this not in Gath, publish this not on the streets of Ashkelon . Lest our Philistines triumph and their sons rejoice."
DSP u have run a good race and fought a good fight. A sure crown awaits u with our Lord, your Maker.
As the Crown Prince of the Ijaw Nation bows out May the God of Almighty who till this day still stands with His people, stand by and bless your people you have left behind.Adieu, good friend.Sleep well in the bosom of the Lord."

After several criticism on his post ,he reposted this:

"I am amazed at the degree of disrespect, lack of etiquette, and complete loss of decorum among our people.
This is my Facebook page where as a free citizen I freely express my feelings.
What I feel is real and personal. Some may like some may not. But why the abuse and insult. Not even the dead is spared.
ALAMEISEIGHA WAS MY FRIEND TILL HE DIED. HE WAS NOT A SAINT AND NEITHER AM I. HE IS DEAD AND GONE.
HE HAS NOTHING TO PROVE, JUSTIFY OR DEFEND ANYMORE. ALL IS NOW BETWEEN HIM AND HIS CREATOR . WHO KNOWS THE HEARTS OF MEN AND WILL JUDGE US ALL IN SPITE OF OUR PRETENCES AND HYPOCRISY.
I repeat for all who care to listen,
DSP WAS MY FRIEND. HE WAS A GOOD MAN AND A LOVER OF THE IJAW PEOPLE. MAY THE GOOD LORD FORGIVE HIS SINS AND MAY LIGHT PERPETUAL SHINE UPON HIM. MAY HIS CHILDREN LIVE A BETTER, GREATER LIFE AND MAY HE HEAL HIS BELOVED AND LOYAL WIFE IN JESS NAME.
