Yours was a short, yet greatly impactful life, both as a believer in Christ and a Martekplace Apostle.
Thank you for living by example;
Thank you for your broad heart;
Thank you for your painstaking efforts to effect change wherever you were;
Thank you for beaming the light, such that even in death, the underlying message of your life showed forth.
You left a legacy to be proud of,
Although the prints are too big to step into.
We're confident you're with the Lord Jesus, whom you served diligently all your life, and we shall see you again on that great resurrection morning.
Keep resting, Sir.
You had a dream to bring change to Nigeria's corrupt polity, but..
Keep singing with the Angels till we meet again.
He will always be remembered for his exemplary legacy. Rest on....
Pastor Egheomhanre Eyieyien, was a great apostle in the market place, a teacher, a prophet, an astute economist, and an epitome of humility and simplicity.
A man who was filled with God's Holy Spirit, even unto the last moment.
I have no doubt you finished strong and well too. Your last Facebook post testifies eloquently to this submission.
What a man you were!
What a life you lived!!
What a huge gap you left behind!!!
I'm consoled that you had peace with Christ and you'd reign with Him forever.
Farewell, my greatest inspiration!
Words cannot express how much we feel. This song is a special dedication to you titled GOODNIGHT by Kayode Omosa and friends.

I cant still believe my eyes abi am I dreaming?
just going through my page when I saw this saddening and unbelievable post of a great icon and intelligent, analytical, schooler,of the word of God who was very interesting and celebrating to the point that he can make someone who is hopeless see the good reason why such a person should have hope in God. Ha!! oh death where is thy sting now? only one thing am sure that God knows the reason why this has happened. My beloved sister Awesiri you are in good hands of the lord, for he will keep you right there in his arm, keep looking unto Jesus as he is there always. May the lord give you the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss. IT IS WELL.
Still find it hard to fully realise that you are no longer with us. You are loved and are sorely missed. Rest in the bosom of Jesus

Please be patient.
To the Family of Egheomhanre Emmanuel Eyieyien,
It is my sincere apology to hear about your loss.
Losing a loved one is very difficult. For this reason when we view what the Bible says it comforts us. Jesus says regarding our dear loved ones who have died that
“There is going to be a resurrection.”—Acts 24:15, New World Translation.
This means that we have a real hope of being reunited with our loved ones.
…. but why should we believe what the Bible says is true?
God hates death: he views it as an enemy. (1 Corinthians 15:26) He has a longing to conquer that enemy, to undo death by means of the resurrection. He yearns to bring back those who are in his memory and to see them live on earth again.—Job 14:14, 15.

My tribute
Egheomhanre Eyieyien was not known only for his financial and economic expertise for which he was much sought after and a regular national commentator. He was my brother in the Lord, a trusted friend to me and family. Friends like him are rare these days. We studied together at the University of Benin where I met him 32 years ago. I was a regular visitor to his house after that and he was best man at my wedding while his wife Awesiri (friend of my wife) was chief bridesmaid. My leaving Nigeria 24 years ago did not dim the light of our friendship as He and his wife hosted us almost every time we visited!
Eghes (as he was called) was a man of strong spiritual principles. A man of integrity which he passed on to his group of companies, a fiercely patriotic Nigerian. Some may realize how much you loved music another thing we shared and with your wife being a singer herself. Once he believed in a cause, was always prepared to go all the way. We miss you and wish you stayed longer here on the planet. I will miss our chats, discussions, your long articles, spiritual and political but as you said this was 'conclusion'.
We say, Let the Lord have His way. Rest in the bosom of our Lord Jesus.
