It's 2weeks now that you are gone without the hope that u are coming back Daddy. This is to let u know how much we value u and miss u wen u are not around.. Hate the fact dat u are not here but happy that u are in heaven with your creator. We your children love you Daddy and you will always be in our heart.
we've come to the end of our journey with you Daddy and while the realisation of our new status becomes clearer, it's inevitable to know our journey in life is far from over. upholding the principles and legacy you taught us is all that we will keep evergreen in our heart. Adieu Baba.
Many people named their child after you because of your impacts in their lives. You have lived a fulfilled life:Academic, Spiritual,Social,Marital and in all ramifications. The Heavens rejoice. you are a SAINT> Good Night.
I am OTUNBA Anthony Adeniranye, gubernatorial candidate in the forthcoming ondo state election. How I wish you waited to see the ocean the little drop of advice you have been given to "us" has yielded. I lost control of my emotion to say "Gone too soon and sudden" . the CENDIA Prof, you lives on

Sleep well father. You lived life well, your humility,giving and love for people was second to none. I loved you, still love and wanna love you more. I wish I could hear you call out Oluwatobiloba, I wish I could hear your voice saying OKUN O one more time. just once more. You are not dead but asleep. Sleep well my loving father. I MORE THAN LOVE YOU.
My father, My friend, My Pastor and Priest, My Angel, My First love, God-fearing, God-loving, God-fearing, Godly, humble, generous, loving, intelligent, handsome... One who gave all his talents and resources to His Maker. Your dance steps Your baritone voice Your firmness and down-to-earth nature It's beautiful to know that your passage was not an accident. You were HIS child and servant so nothing could have happened to you without HIS knowledge. If I had the chance to choose a father in the "next world"... I'll choose you again a trillion times over. I love you dearly.
Baba Akorede, as we fondly called him, was a father, firm and forthright. God positioned him and he did not fail to deliver. His wise counsels, his songs and the passion with which he did his job and preached the word of God always endeared him to me. His life was exemplary and enviable. Sleep on, dear father. Sweet is your sleep.
