By Chuks Ekpeneru
A close associate of the late Senator Buruji Kashamu has narrated his last encounters with the late former Ogun senator and Peoples Democratic Party, PDP chieftain.
Otunba Remi Bakare, who was the Head of the Campaign Team of Buruji Kashamu Organisation said the death of his close friend didn’t come as a bizarre occurrence to him as the late senator severally predicted his death for days before he passed on August 8, 2020.
He also said the late politician gave directives on the future of Ogun PDP and what his faction should do when he is no more.
According to Bakare, “But the fact that he had been warning me of his impending exit reduced the severity of the shock.
“Kashamu happened to be someone who I would say had an uncommon grace in the sense that he knew he would go and he had informed me days before. So, as a result, it wasn’t much of a shock, though one would have loved to have him around. For the next 3 to 4 decades, but he was prepared for his death.
“The first time he told me, it was on the phone. He called me and said Remi, look, I am leaving you people. And he said these are the things I want you to do. And I told him to keep quiet. Don’t say such a thing like that again. I told him. Don’t worry, God is in control, bla, bla, bla. And then he called again.
“He called me several times on his sickbed. Every time he called me while, on the sickbed, he kept saying to me, Look, Remi, I am leaving you. And I kept on assuring him, look, you are not going anywhere.
“And the last time he called me, he said, Remi, call my lawyer. I want you and my lawyer to go and see OGD, and he gave us instructions on what to do and he said “this is likely going to be the last time that I will be speaking with you. And I said, look.
“And he said Remi, listen to me and do exactly what I asked you to do. A few hours after, he went into a coma,” he said.
