He was a remarkable person, always the first to offer assistance in times of need. As he meets our creator, may he find mercy and forgiveness for any shortcomings.

remembered for who he was. In our private conversations, he shared his concerns about the political leadership in Nigeria and how it could
be improved.
“His passing is a significant personal loss for all of us, but we will find solace in the cherished memories we have of him. He dutifully and
respectfully filled the role of a big brother in all situations. He was a gracious host, a loving father, a skilled strategist, and an accomplished
