He stressed the need for the state government to ensure that palliative items approved by Gov. Oluwarotimi Akeredolu got to the right people across the state.
Olapade called on all Nigerians to abstain from sin, forgive one another as Christ forgave the sins of believers on the cross of Calvary, and above all continue to live a life of prayer, penance and charity.
He also expressed appreciation to God, who out of love for mankind, sent his only beloved son to die for the salvation of humanity.
