The well respected Lagos pastor, Bimbo Odukoya died in the ill-fated 
Sosoliso crash on December 10th 2005. Her husband, Pastor Taiwo of the 
Fountain of Life Bible Church, who is now married to a South African 
lady, took to his Instagram page to remember her. He wrote; 
"It is exactly ten years since the grim incident that led to the passing
 of my late wife, ‘Bimbo Odukoya. Yet, as I look through the years, I am
 awash with feelings of gratitude. God, in His character, has been 
faithful. I am particularly grateful for the life that ‘Bimbo lived and 
the legacies she left behind.
 It is incredible that ten years after her passing, 
her teachings continue to impact families, and the initiatives she drove
 while with us, are still here, touching the nations. Indeed, only God 
could have chosen an eager teenage girl and built her into a woman of 
international repute, to His glory alone. Only God could have given such
 a unique assignment and given the grace to run with it. And only God 
could have determined when the curtains were drawn.
    If there is therefore any lesson we must consciously strive to 
remember, it is that there is a divine calling and assignment on every 
life God created. As we celebrate ‘Bimbo today, let us stop to ask 
ourselves: ‘am I truly in the place of my assignment? am I living the 
life God intended?’ This should drive your life’s philosophy as it did 
hers. The world will celebrate your influence in Jesus name". 
    May her soul continue to rest in peace Amen.
