BURUJI KASHAMU: THE MAN YOU HATE BUT LOVE...VOX POPULI VOX DEI

 Buruji Kashamu was a Nigerian politician who served as a Senator representing Ogun East in the 8th National Assembly.
Kashamu was born in Ijebu-Igbo, Ogun State, Nigeria on 19 May 1958. He started his education at Ansarudeen Primary School, Ijebu Igbo.
Kashamu died in Lagos on 8 August 2020 as a result of complications caused by COVID-19. He was 62 years old.
After his demised, people in Nigeria, now know who the true Kashamu ....Read what people wrote about this man you hate ...but love......Vox Populi, Vox Dei  'the voice of the people is the voice of God'
 
Doyinsola Ogunbiyi , wrote;"m not an admirer of Kashamu.In fact I swore to myself that if Kashamu became Governor of my State I will relocate for obvious reasons .
My  bias was so strong by virtue of stories that surrounded him...and the quality of his personality and level of education.,
All in totality his unattractive profile influenced my decision at the time  ....
But since his demise  I wondered  why  I began to see him  differently with my spiritual eyes..Irrespective of his criminal reputation or where and how he made his money ....
He was impacting lives positively I got to know ..and God knew that too!...And God probably loved him for  that!... Because this is what God called man to do.."Fe enikeji re gegebi ara re"
She went further to write..."Ive been following comments of people generally since his death...I'm bound to believe he was a man with human heart,generous and kind to people in general and freely too....I heard lots of positive  testimonies of his unrepentant open handedness,and his passionate heart towards the needy...
How he would unilaterally shoulder medical bills of strangers who were in critical health conditions but found it hard to pay....  Buruji would freely, without looking back carry the responsibility totally  till the end no matter the cost..
All these testimonies could not be cooked up or stage managed in view of the fact that they came from diverse sources..So I tend to believe most of them..."

. Victor Alani Karunwi ; wrote "This testimony was what the man stood for irrespective of any political attachment.He was truly standing with the poor masses."
Solaja Ayodej.."Indeed he was a generous man , though l was not his fan but l still respect his sense of giving."
Aare Taiwo Ewetade ,wrote "From my own point of view, the day I saw the crowds, life confession of some people and recorded video of Baba Adebutu, then I changed my perception abt him. Anybody is entitled to his/her opinion, the Lord Almighty is watching and He will judge us according to our action and behavior to our fellow neighborhood.Love thy neighbors as thyself, the last commandments."
Yomi Fowode, wrote;"Amongst the so-called critics are those that stole our commonwealth and have only used it for their families and cronies while many are languishing in poverty. If with Covid-19 pandemic, that multitude attended his burial...what would have happened without the pandemic? I always believed that things men do will live after them...and that was it at his burial. May God forgive his sins and rest him in peace."
Omotayo Ikotun, wrote; "........In death he proved to be an Omoluabi despite his misgivings.He called to passionately ask Adebutu for his forgiveness.Indeed the mammoth crowd at his burial despite the pandemic situation was an indication that even in death he was greater.May God rest his soul amen"
Jolayemi Bolare Femi, wrote:"Buruji was a God loved human. He lived a fulfilled life,got money,impacted into societies, victorious in all aspects. The portion of grace served this gentleman was more than sufficient as attested to even by his dectractors, who claimed that he lived another man's life after he escaped a death sentences somewhere. Like other Saints, he lived a short, interesting but a fulfilled life, and at the end he resolved all conflicts symbolically with his calls made to the Adebutus but went viral for all other aggreived to see and forgive."
Prince Olubunmi Mebude, wrote; "Call him the present day Robin Hood or whatever, the man has come, he has imparted lifes, he has changed lifes and he made peace with his Lord before departing. Let those alive, standing and criticising take care. May the good Lord grant his soul Aljanah Fridaus....Amen"
