Prophet Marcus hosts Guests to Asun Night
@ Country Home
Late into
the night after the Thursday 26th Wake Keep and Christian Song
service, lot of dignitaries and VIPs were driven to Ladawo Quarters Ode-Aye where Prophet (Dr.) Marcus Tibetan hosted his guests to sumptuous meal
and drinks. The entire area was cordoned by gun wielding military officers
courtesy Lieutenant Colonel Firopo
Tibetan. Ladawo Quarters is where Prophet
Marcus and his younger brother Colonel Firopo had their country homes
and one of the VIPs who stormed Oladawo Quarters is Ogun state real
estate magnate Asiwaju Emmanuel Olajide Awosedo. It was
another carnival of sort as the Prophet asked his aides to slaughter a goat for
his guests for the popular Asun feast. Guests kept coming in
one after the other to take their meal before leaving for their various hotels
and guest houses in Ode-Aye and Okitipupa.

How the Tibetans drove tourism to
Okitipupa
Okitipupa town is 10 minutes drive from Ode
Aye but the town equally felt the vibes of the Tibetans as major hotels and Guest Houses in town were taken over
by the Prophet and his younger brother Colonel
Roy for their guests. Prophet Marcus Tibetan practically paid for all the over forty rooms of Coastal Hotel, a three star hotel with
best of facilities at Coastal Royal
Estate, Okitipupa and equally
made available security vehicles and other vehicles to transport guests to and
fro the hotel. Okitipupa is one of
Ondo state’s rich towns with richest natural resources deposited for economic
gains (It is the Headquarter of the famous Oluwa Glass). However, in the last
one year, the Government of Ondo State
under Dr. Segun Mimiko has not deem
it fit to give electricity or instruct the Gencos to supply light to both Okitipupa
and 5 other communities (Ode-Aye inclusive) in Ondo state. Shame!

The Friday Funeral
Only few
People could schedule their mother’s funeral for a Friday and the patronage
will still be high. That was what the Tibetans
achieved with their November 27th date as more guests stormed Ode
Aye from all walks of life to celebrate the life of Mama Olufunmilayo Maria Tibetan. The
event kick started with a snake drive of motorcade amidst convoy of other
exotic cars from the center of town to Gospel
Faith Mission International Beautiful Gate Assembly, by 18, Lapoki Street, Ode-Aye where a
conglomerate of Pastors and Evangelists received the body. The BMC funeral executives were at their
very best as they added drama and style to the carriage with dance and blowing
of trumpets to the admiration of onlookers and passer-byes. The Okada motor
cyclist also made fortune as there was traffic of legs from Ladawo
Quarters to Lapoki Street.

Why BMC dressed Celestial for Mama
Unlike in
other funeral events where traditional attires or suits are worn to honor the
dead in Africa, which at times is a reflection of the person’s profession while
alive, the funeral company BMC
dressed in Celestial Church of Christ
attire for Mama Maria Tibetan. The
twelve BMC officials who handled her funeral activity were dressed in the Onibode
(Usher) classic attire of the Celestial
Church of Christ. Close sources
who work with Prophet MKO Tibetan
told this blog that it was the Prophet himself who ordered that his mum’s
funeral should be given a Celestial treatment by the Bolaji Mendes Charles’ BMC
funerals.

How Prophet Tibetan cracked ribs at church
While he was
called to give the vote of thanks, Prophet
(Dr.) MKO Tibetan used the good opportunity to do two things; to offer what
he calls his 3 best songs and to equally go memory lane to recall how he and
his siblings were raised at GOFAMINT, Beautiful
Gate Assembly in the late 60s towards early 70s. He declared “This is my
church and I cannot forget what you people passed unto me as a kid and till
date I am still standing on those principles. I have just only a wife”. The
famous Prophet nearly broke guests’ jaws when he rendered what he tagged his “3
Best Songs”. But before that, Prophet
Marcus recognized his Sunday School Teacher of the 70s Pastor Akinnubi A.O. who was among the officiating ministers,
thanking him for instilling some Christian principles in him and his siblings.
He later sang his 3 best songs one of which is “Iwo ni mo wa Gbega” which he sang in concert with the church choir
to the delight of the congregation. His second song drew laughter and applause
from guests and worshippers, the Prophet said that particular song is only sang
anytime he owes his wife a heavy amount of money and she begins to trouble him
for payback. “If I see that she is disturbing me and I cant sustain the heat, I
will put on my white garment and lie on the bed and start singing “Ao pami lara da, ao de mi lade ogo, ao si
gbemi niyawo nile ogo lodo baba”. His gesture got many reeling with
laughter. His last song “Oya ninu Ogo”
electrified the congregation. The Prophet thanked all and prayed for their save
return home.

spoke with this blog “Prophet Marcus is a true Prophet of the Living God”. The
Prophet is said to have raised her husband from death many years ago. The man
who had passed on without writing his will was said to have been taken to the
Prophet in great confusion and once the Prophet seek a private praying session
with his corpse, he later came out asking his wife to go give him water to
drink to the bewilderment of confused family members. Everyone was surprised.
The man was said to have lived additional 10 years before he finally passed
away at an advanced age few years ago. Since then, Mrs. Okogwu has been grateful and that was her reason for storming
the occasion. She was both at the church and the reception.

and courageous face in the last 3 days suddenly lost emotion and burst into
heavy tears as he watched his mum being lowered into the grave. Prophet Marcus remained inconsolable
and the crowd of guests, photo journalists and shepherds of GOFAMINT took their
turn to pacify the prophet who felt deeply pained that his lovely mum was being

as she couldn’t bear the irreparable loss of losing such a compassionate Grand

Why the Party was Successful
The Ode-Aye
Reception for Mama Maria Oluwafunmilayo
Tibetan was largely successful because of the kind of love exhibited
between her elderly kids, Prophet Marcus
Tibetan and Lieutenant Colonel
Oluwafiropo Tibetan aka Colonel Roy. For instance the two
largest tents on the CMS School Playing Ground, Irokin–
Ode-Aye were that of both Colonel Roy and Prophet Marcus. For instance on Prophet Marcus’s tent, the inscription “Oluso” which signifies his
position as a shepherd was put on the tent. (Oluso means Shepherd) while Colonel Ropo’s tent has “Colonel Roy” inscribed on it. Each of
them equally had their distinguished guests seated comfortably. While Colonel Roy’s guests are majorly of
Military intelligentsias who don’t fraternize with the press, Prophet Marcus’s guests are of the
Lagos social circle, business people, academia and clergy. The two musicians
who played equally played for both Colonel
Roy and Prophet Marcus as there
was no discrimination and no attempt by one to torpedo the other in form of
brandishing of ego. For instance, proper military escort was given to Prophet Marcus by his brother Colonel
Roy and you wouldn’t know whose guests is who as their guests were served
by same food vendor. Colonel Roy
took his dance with his own crowd of invited guests immediately after his
brother, Prophet Marcus danced and
each of them equally went to spray each other not minding who is bigger or
smaller. This attitude according to Elder
Larry Ogunmusere, an uncle to Prophet
Marcus and Captain Roy is one of
the legacies Mama Maria Oluwafunmilayo Tibetan enshrined in her
children before she departed the world in September 6th, 2015.
Reception for Mama Maria Oluwafunmilayo
Tibetan was largely successful because of the kind of love exhibited
between her elderly kids, Prophet Marcus
Tibetan and Lieutenant Colonel
Oluwafiropo Tibetan aka Colonel Roy. For instance the two
largest tents on the CMS School Playing Ground, Irokin–
Ode-Aye were that of both Colonel Roy and Prophet Marcus. For instance on Prophet Marcus’s tent, the inscription “Oluso” which signifies his
position as a shepherd was put on the tent. (Oluso means Shepherd) while Colonel Ropo’s tent has “Colonel Roy” inscribed on it. Each of
them equally had their distinguished guests seated comfortably. While Colonel Roy’s guests are majorly of
Military intelligentsias who don’t fraternize with the press, Prophet Marcus’s guests are of the
Lagos social circle, business people, academia and clergy. The two musicians
who played equally played for both Colonel
Roy and Prophet Marcus as there
was no discrimination and no attempt by one to torpedo the other in form of
brandishing of ego. For instance, proper military escort was given to Prophet Marcus by his brother Colonel
Roy and you wouldn’t know whose guests is who as their guests were served
by same food vendor. Colonel Roy
took his dance with his own crowd of invited guests immediately after his
brother, Prophet Marcus danced and
each of them equally went to spray each other not minding who is bigger or
smaller. This attitude according to Elder
Larry Ogunmusere, an uncle to Prophet
Marcus and Captain Roy is one of
the legacies Mama Maria Oluwafunmilayo Tibetan enshrined in her
children before she departed the world in September 6th, 2015.
