How Mama Died
The late mother
of the renowned Celestial Church of Christ Prophet, Dr. Marcus Tibetan died in such a way that made many observers both
in Lagos and Ode-Aye feel that Mama
played a fast one on her first son and his siblings. Prophet Marcus who shared lots of emotion with his mum during her
life time had rushed into Nigeria in the Month of August, 2015 when he learnt
of his mum’s illness. Those who know the 55 years old Prophets’ schedule know
that every end of the year, he returns home to Nigeria to do just two things.
One is the anniversary of his Nigeria’s cathedral which often falls into the
second week of November every year. Secondly, to launch his yearly prediction
book which always falls on the Second or last week of December, and after that
the Prophet is back to his base in Dublin (Republic of Ireland) where his four lovely children are schooling.
But 2015’s case was different as Mama’s illness made Prophet Marcus to rush back home unexpected.

Mama’s dramatic death on Son’s 6th
anniversary
For three weeks
the Prophet did everything possible to ensure that Mama regains her full health
and it was getting to the first week of September when the adult harvest and
thanksgiving anniversary service of his Republic of Ireland’s CCC, Elisha Parish was due. Knowing the kind of passion her son has for her,
Mama whose second son is an Army Colonel in the Nigeria Army Medical Corps,
Kano advised the Prophet to go back to Dublin
and observe his Parish’s harvest that she was sound and okay. Dr. Tibetan allegedly left, reluctantly. He left two days to his Sunday
6th September, 2015 6th Adult Harvest Service in Dublin.
It was while observing the harvest that the 80 years old Mother Celestial F.M.
Tibetan passed away in the early hours of that Sunday September 6th.
She died at Yaba Military Hospital where her second son, Colonel Firopo Tibetan of the Nigerian
Army Medical Corps, Kano rushed her to. But even though the news reached Dublin few minutes after Mama’s demise,
members of Prophet Marcus’ Dublin
Parish kept the news away from him in order not to break him down. He got to
know about his mother’s demise the second day, Monday 7th of
September after taking his breakfast at his Station Street, Balbrigan County home in Dublin. The Prophet was said to have
gone emotionally shattered as God kept Mama’s death away from him as he was
alleged to be the one that had always pleaded for her long stay on earth due to
his love for his mother and he was the one that has kept her on a long medical
scheduled in Lagos since she fell sick while leaving in Ode-Aye years back.

Secrets you don’t know about Prophet
MKO Tibetan’s mother
The Late Mother Celestial Oluwafunmilayo Maria
Tibetan hails from a family that is today responsible for the birth of
Christianity in her Ikale Area of Ondo state-South
West Nigeria. Mama hails from Igodan-Lisa
in Okitipupa
Local Government Area of Ikale land in Ondo
State. She was born on August 26th 1953 and passed away on September
6th, 2015 at the ripe age of 80. She never knew her mother as her
mother died when she was at a tender age of 3. Local history has it that her
mother died while trying to give birth to her 3rd Child. Mama was
her first issue. Her father who is famously known as Balogun Lajuwomi of Igodan-Lisa was the first Ikale man who brought Joseph Ayo Babalola, the Founder of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) to Ikale land in the mid 1940s; he was
equally reputed to be the one who taught the late CAC leader how to eat Pupuru
(Cassava flour) which is the most flavored meal of the Ikale people of Ondo state.

Mama was an
embodiment of 3 ecclesiastical bodies under the 10 Commandment of God as she
cuts across Christ Apostolic Church
through her father, Gospel Faith Mission, through her In-law (Late
Reverend R.A. George) and Celestial Church of Christ (CCC) through her son
(Prophet Marcus). Apart from the fact that her family was responsible for the
birth of Christianity, through CAC, in Ikale land, the founder of the Gospel Faith Mission International, Pastor R.A. George was Mama’s in-law.
He was married to Mama’s younger sister and he founded the church in Ibadan in
1960. Mama was a top founding member in the Women’s League of GOFAMINT. She
later took the church back to Ode-Aye where she played a prominent
role in making the church find its feet in Ode-Aye
and neighboring communities and she was
equally made “Iya-Ijo” (Mother of The Church) before her son got his divine
call to be a Celestial Church
Shepherd twenty years ago.

At the age of
25, Mama got married to her fiancé now husband, Pa Festus Okenola Tibetan,
popularly known as Okemudodo, now 95 years old.
Mama was a
virtuous woman in her lifetime. She never indulged in gossip or any form of
backbiting. She had her own challenges in this world but she died a fulfilled
Christian. Mama had 13 children but only 4 survived her; her first son, Prophet (Dr.) Marcus MKO Tibetan aka Nostradamus,
Lieutenant Colonel Olufiropo Tibetan of the Nigeria Army, Tomike and Anuoluwapo.

nearly ran her food business enterprise down as Mama could not take her eyes
off hungry and famished friends of her kids who always pay homage to her abode
as Mama would always serve them the entire meal free.

How 2 Churches handled Mama’s Wake
Keep Service
The late
Mama, Mother Celestial Maria
Oluwafunmilayo Tibetan must have made her heavenly hosts green with envy as
two separate earthly ecclesiastical organizations among the three that breed
her faith (CAC, GOFAMINT & CCC) were responsible for her Wake Keep Service
after she left this earth. This blog gathered that even though her first son Prophet Marcus Tibetan is a leader in
the Celestial Church of Christ fold, he was raised in his early years at Gospel Faith Mission, Ode-Aye
and due to his respect for the leadership of the Church, the Prophet permitted Gospel Faith Mission International, Beautiful Gate Assembly, Ode-Aye to handle all Mama’s homely
activities as that was Mama’s traditional church from time immemorial. The
First Wake Keep Service which held in Lagos on Friday November 20th
took place at CCC, Elisha Parish,
Lagos Cathedral by 1-8, Celestial Way, off Zawiyyat Street by Ajegunle off Lagos Abeokuta Express
Road and was conducted by a delegation from the Celestial Church of Christ, Nigerian Diocese and led by Reverend M.O. Akinsoji while other
activities from Thursday November 26th to Friday 27th was
handled by the GOFAMINT Church family in Ode-Aye.

Why Mama’s Casket was imported from
California
Not many
knew that Mama’s Casket made of finest Maple Woods with attached golden ornaments
was imported from California in the United
States of America. This was allegedly at the behest of her first son, Prophet (Dr.) Marcus Tibetan who
insisted that his mum must be buried in the finest casket due to the role she
played in his life. The Prophet is said
to be in love with caskets made in the city of California. One funeral Company that handled the importation of the
casket and final ceremony of Mama’s funeral is the Charles Bolaji Mendes owned BMC
Funerals on Odunlami Street, Lagos; the same funeral company that buried
famous Orin-Ekiti born educationist
and father of society lady, Chief (Mrs.)
Dupe Jemibewon, Chief Bosede Ajayi
in August 2015. Findings by this blog revealed that Mr. Mendes who has since
taken a lead on Odunlami street, Lagos after the sudden demise of late Tunji Okusanya of MIC Casket who died in the October 3, 2013 plane crash that killed
the casket of former Governor of Ondo state, Segun Agagu and several other Nigerians in Lagos while on a journey
to Ondo State for a state burial holds the Prophet in very high esteem over
some great but unmentionable acts he has benefitted from Prophet Marcus in times past and due to this, he decided to give
the Prophet and his entire family a 30% rebate on funeral charges. The all-white
Maple Wood casket had Mama buried in an all-white robe with a white colored
Bible which was her best literature during her life time.

What GOFAMINT Pastors said about Mama
The time for
eulogy came when the Wake Keep and Service of Songs for Mama Kick started on
Thursday November 26th with the Presence of over 15 Pastors of Gospel Faith Mission International from various districts in Okitipupa LGA. The service of songs
which witnessed the singing of GOFAMINT Hymnal songs and four Bible readings
and a sermon was led by Pastor F.A.
Adenikinju of GOFAMINT, Beautiful Gate Parish-Ode Aye. The
Lessons were taken from books of Ecclesiastes
12 from verse 1-7, Psalm 90 from 1-12, John 14 verse 1-6, I
Thessalonians 4 verse 13-18 and other relevant Bible passages. Giving a
brief of Mama’s life history, Pastor
Adenikinju described Mama as a Proverb
31 brand of woman and went into the history of how Mama was very
instrumental to the birth of GOFAMINT church in Ode-Aye and how she
equally became a Celestial Church
member in her later days. The Pastor said GOFAMINT came to Ondo State and was first established at Agbaje town before it
came down to Ode-Aye in 1970 courtesy Mama whose junior sister was married
to the founder of the church Pastor R.A.
George. Pastor Adenikinju said
Mama was later baptized in 1996 and afterwards she became so devoted and was a
regular comer for the early morning services of the church and for years, she
contributed to the development of the church in so many ways. The man of God
regretted that at a time, Mama’s husband fell sick and was taken to Lagos by her
first son and regained his health. She later fell sick as well and was taken to
Lagos to join her husband. Pastor Adenikinju
thanked Mama’s first son, Prophet Marcus
Tibetan for standing up to take care of Mama and making sure she lived well
for several years before she finally passed away. He urged the entire
congregation to pray for Prophet Marcus
and his siblings as the Prophet proved to be a good ambassador of Christ Jesus.
The Man of God said further that despite Prophet
Marcus being a Celestial Church member, he displayed a high sense of
maturity by allowing GOFAMINT carry out his mother’s final funeral rites.

Tibetan for standing up to take care of Mama and making sure she lived well
for several years before she finally passed away. He urged the entire
congregation to pray for Prophet Marcus
and his siblings as the Prophet proved to be a good ambassador of Christ Jesus.
The Man of God said further that despite Prophet
Marcus being a Celestial Church member, he displayed a high sense of
maturity by allowing GOFAMINT carry out his mother’s final funeral rites.

Pastor Abraham Olaeso too
Another Man
of God who spoke and gave a sermon titled “What is your Life?” at the event was
Pastor Abraham Olaeso an Assembly
Pastor of GOFAMINT, Beautiful Gate
Assembly-Ode Aye. While delivering his sermon, Pastor Olaeso who took excerpts from James 4 verse 13- 15 called
the attention of many to the brand of life Mama
Tibetan lived, saying “In her lifetime she was always laughing and she
eventually died a happy woman”. The Pastor charged Christians in the gathering
to be like Mama Tibetan who died a
happy woman living behind distinguished children and grand children and a
reputable husband. He said “Our life is like a vapor, it will disappear at a time
but what will be remembered is our good works and the legacy left behind. Today, Mama’s
legacy stares us in the face with her great children, grand children and
everyone that came to Ode-Aye because of her”.

CCC & GOFAMINT Choirs give
harmony performance
One of the
high moments of the event was when the Gospel
Faith Mission, Beautiful Gate Assembly choir and the Choir of CCC, Elisha Parish performed in quick
succession. The choirs of the two churches were bound in love and unison as
they both shared same podium to honor the memory of the late Mother Celestial Oluwafunmilayo Maria Tibetan mother of Prophet (Dr.) Marcus Tibetan and Lieutenant Colonel Firopo Tibetan. Brother Chukwuma David of CCC, Elisha Parish, led the CCC
Choristers from Lagos.

‘I will Miss Mama’s 365 days Prayers
for me’– Colonel Roy
One man who
nearly broke down but refused to break down due to his military training is
mama’s second son, Lieutenant Colonel
Firopo Tibetan aka Colonel Roy. The Army Colonel was given the opportunity to
speak about his mum by the organizers of the Thursday, November 26th
Christian Wake Keep Service. The Colonel who had attended the event with his
fair complexioned wife, Bisola (Nee
Adefarati) said his mum was his greatest spiritual asset in her life time “She
was a loving mum, my mother didn’t care about our money or position but what
mattered most to her was the love we shared among ourselves. While alive, she
cared about our presence”. The Army Colonel spoke of his mum and lamented
further “I will miss my mum for many things; what really pains me most is her
every morning prayer for me. At 6am every morning before I set out, her call
will come on my phone and she will pray and pray for me. She did this for 365
days of the year without stopping. I don’t personally pray much but I rely on
her prayers. Once she offers her prayers, I go out with confidence and I will
say ‘Mum, I am going’ and my mum will say “Ropo,
eiye o kin fo, ko foju sogi”. I am an Army Colonel and I can tell you since
I joined the Army, I have relied on my mother’s prayers and it has always
worked for me. Now, I will need to start praying by myself because my prayer
warrior is gone”. On how he received the news of his mum’s death, Colonel Roy said “When I was told about
her critical condition, I told my wife, I said I might not meet my mother alive
and that is exactly what happened. When I got to the hospital, my aides said
‘Oga, your mother died ten minutes ago’. When I saw my mother on her bed, it
was as if she was sleeping. I kissed her and touched her. But yesterday when I
went to take her body at the morgue before coming here, I asked them to open
her for me, my mum was still looking beautiful and she was just “laughing”. I
can tell you that my mum is laughing upstairs”. On how Mama brought love among
her kids Colonel Roy stated before
the evening congregants “Before she passed away, she solicited for love among
her children and today I can say my brother (Prophet Marcus) is not only a
brother to me but a father. Yes, sometimes we disagree but I quickly talk to
myself and I will say ‘No, you can’t do this to your brother’. He might not be
able to call me everyday like my mum but I believe prayers go a long way”.

Mother Celestial Tibetan shed tears
for Mama
If there is
one woman who lost her composure and allowed emotion to take a better part of
her, she is no other person than Dublin based wife and mother of Prophet (Dr.) Marcus Tibetan’s
children, Mother Celestial Christine
Bosede Tibetan. This fair
complexioned lady who stormed Nigeria with her first daughter, Temitope Tibetan aka Elizabeth
Pope let her tears gland loose as she shed emotional tears for her late
mother-in-law at the Wake Keep Service. At the event, Madam became the Chief
Mourner and it was a genuine action of love as she was equally close to Mama in
her life time.
