On Tuesday, Sheikh Muhydeen Bello, a prominent Nigerian Islamic cleric, delivered a poignant message to the political class, cautioning them to be mindful of their actions while in office. He reminded them that their time in power is temporary and that they will eventually become history.
Speaking at the four-year remembrance of former Oyo State Governor Abiola Ajimobi, held at his private residence in Ibadan, Bello urged politicians to live lives that would speak better about them. He encouraged them to unite the political family of the Ajimobis and the All Progressives Congress in the state, emphasizing that without unity, they may not be able to carry on Ajimobi’s legacies.

Bello specifically called on Senator Teslim Folarin, the APC’s 2023 governorship candidate, to retrace his steps and become a rallying point for other party members. He advised Folarin to change some wrong notions people have about him and seek a way forward for the state.
The cleric lamented that politicians are never satisfied with what they have, despite having enough. He urged them to fear God and be content with little, as God will repay them for their actions on earth. Bello emphasized the importance of unity, love, and truthfulness among politicians, stressing that people are not happy with their behavior and relationships.

“This is about Ajimobi; we are seeing his end; they will also see our ends, too. Let’s work for posterity and see what our future will look like.
“God asked us to fear him and said that He would repay us for all that we do on earth. Let’s stand upright in all our doings.
“As you are all seated here as politicians, love each other. Be one. Let there be oneness among you all. Ajimobi died; he left people behind. What have you done that you will be remembered for when you are gone? Be one united body as a political family and party. Don’t fight and envy each other. Always speak your mind truthfully to each other.
“People are not happy with the way all of you are behaving and relating. Come together, be strong and united in honor of Ajimobi. He lived a life that unites people, yet you people are not united after his death,” he lamented.
