It is 8 years since you passed on and i am just having the opportunity of this tribute. You were a friend of our then-HOD in Ilorin, Professor Ezekiel Odelowo, a fellow Cardiothoracic Surgeon like you. We all loved you and called you Baba Adeyemo. You were our defacto father or trainer at the postgraduate examinations when our trainers in Ilorin were not always examiners.  You were often invited as an External Examiner to Ilorin Medical School while we were resident doctors. Your coming to Ilorin gave me the audacity to pursue residency training in Urology. Now by the grace of God, I am a Professor of Urological Surgery.
You also came on stage when I was writing my Part II Finals of the National Postgraduate Medical College of Nigeria Examinations in Surgery. When I had a reference in my dissertation, despite passing the examination because none of my supervisors was a national fellow, you were the one who gave me a lifeline to go and seek the help of Professor O G Ajao. It worked, and my dissertation scaled through by the next examination. I am so grateful. Sleep well, Baba Adeyemi

I have the Fondest Memories of Prof Adebayo Owolabi Adeyemo , I had the double privilege of being first one of his many adopted Children and also his student at OAU Medical School. Our Headmaster Forever. Indeed we lost a legend of a father , a passionate teacher of teachers and one of the Kindest , gentlest people that you will ever meet.
He was smart , humble, generous, accommodating and very funny . When he waved that hand at you , you knew exactly what he meant ! All of us children at OAU staff quarters were his Children , the welfare of All the Medical Students was his highest priority. His dream was for every child or student in his care to excel in life! He went the extra mile to assist anyone who needed his assistance anytime and anywhere. He literarily spent himself for others. He Loved the patients and cared deeply for them. He was an outstanding Cardiothoracic surgeon who was able to improvise and deliver world class care in spite of the environmental limitations.
Indeed a rare breed , He was of a limited edition specially created by God to bless our generation.
We miss you so much dear Daddy, but we are consoled by the Selfless life you lived and your sterling legacy.
Praying That every good seed you have planted will continue to yield a bountiful harvest for Mummy , Nike , Sola , Yemi , the grandchildren and generations to come in Jesus Name Amen .
Continue to Rest in peace with your creator till we meet to part no more!

A very great teacher, compassionate, very humble, remembering the roles he played as a mentor and professional I would say it was as if he was more than one person. He obviously understood his role and the implications of training us more than most humans do. Despite his wealth of knowledge, he was too slow and very reluctant to do away with any answer from us, I noted that he thought even poor responses over before corrections, if he had to, most times he just built on such or navigated us to the expected shore. God will continually bless his family. Amen.

Prof. Adeyemo was such a kind thoughtful teacher. You may think he's intimidating until you see his heart and the depth of his kindness. He had the love of a father to us his students at Ife. I say with confidence that my life would have had a different outcome if Prof. Adeyemo had not stood up and gone above and beyond to help me through a very difficult patch at Ife.
To God.... I am eternally grateful for putting prof in my path.
May his soul forever rest in peace. He was a good man. May he be remembered warmly forever. RIP
For his family, may the memories of his goodness remain fondly in your hearts forever until you meet again.

Professor Adeyemo AKA headmaster molded us all his students to be very good physicians and clinicians. While we may have the basic intellect he instilled in us the discipline, dedication and hard work of being a physician. He is thorough and while focusing on the bigger picture. he is strict yet kind. he was a good man. may his great soul rest in perfect peace. In other countries he would be immortalized as one of the greatest teachers who ever lived, nonetheless for all those who knew him he will be forever immortalized in our hearts. may his great soul rest in perfect peace Amen.
