Most men his age run after girls,but not Jire Olusegun.He was not that type even on attaining poverty.The story changed when Jire went for NYSC to the south esatern part of Nigeria where he met Tosin ,a quiet easy going girl.They courted for 8years before getting married in May 2014.I never saw a lady with Jire before and after Tosin,that is the character of Jire.A total loyal fellow who holds integrity dearly.They are blessed with a son named by Jire himself as Iyimide Olusegun.Oh ,how he dotted around his son bonding for the future roles he never got to play.
Jire never missed out in family events.Our last outing together was the burial ceremony of our maternal uncle and his own grand uncle ,the Kabiyesi where Adejire as usual was in charge of the guests of the ADEPOJU's
Words can never express our loss and emptiness but the comfort was in the goodbye phrase you muttered "Iam going Home". Even on your sick bed at Ondo General Hospital,you ensured the welfare of your dad was addressed by making funds available to him.You were the bridge builder amongst your sibblings reaching out to the other Oluseguns.I know how protective you were of Wale and Yinka . I remembered Shade's wedding when you came pleading so that no one is embarassed and let old wounds heal.That was you ,Adejire,may your soul rest in peace.Your grand parents dots over you and mama Loye Adebolaji,say hi them all,even though they must had frowned at your leaving so soon. Nature played it out that you rested with those that loved you dearly.
Goonight Adejire our son,brother,father,husband,nephew,cousin and friend.surely,you left too soon Adejire liki a comet
