]]> New Telegraph Saturday Editor, Waheed Bakare, who passed away on Sunday night after a brief illness, has been buried on Monday at his residence, in Ota, Ogun State.

Speaking at the burial rites for the late editor on Monday, the supervising cleric, Ustadh Ibraheem Ayyub, said though the deceased exit was painful to both the media industry and the religious society he belongs to, death remains the ultimate price to pay by all creatures, the GuildNg reports.

Ayyub, who is the Chief Imam, Akorede Central Mosque, Abule Egba, urged the sympathizers present to reflect on their worldly dealings before the final exit.

He noted that the worldly life is for a brief period, adding that there is a need for humans to be conscious of their dealing as the earth will be their final abode.

Quoting chapter 20 verse 55 of the Holy Quran which says, ‘From the earth did we create you, and into it shall we return you, and from it shall we bring you out once again’, argued that no matter the achievements of any individual on earth, death will always be the ultimate price.

He urged friends, family, and well-wishers present at the burial rites to pause and reflect on their worldly dealings and be conscious of the last day in which the only thing to intercede for them will be their deeds when they are alive.
