Egbon mi, keep resting in the Lord

Adejire, your grandma, Motinola Florence Adepoju, the late High Chief Sasere -Lobun of Ile-Oluji in Ondo state loved that name so much, that she was so determined to name her grandchild the name. You dazed us all like a shooting star that suddenly disappeared, it still hurts, your death came with its pains. Love you aburo and continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord.

Dear brother, thank you for a life time of memories.Keep resting with the angels and happy posthumous birthday bruv !!

I never stopped believing u will come back to us! Time has passed and I never found a replacement to ur brotherhood!

Death made this surreal...! I love you so much bro till we meet again .... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep resting in the blossom of the almighty GOD! We really miss u big bro...

Adejire Olusegun, it would have been your 38th birthday today, no day passes by without your thoughts on my mind.

Adejire Olusegun....keep resting in the Lord. I don't know if I can ever understand your passing away or the fact that I won't see you again in this world.... I will always keep your memories alive.

We still cry .... A year ago we cried loud but your soul still departed ... Tears like the rain from our eyes watered the ground but your soul still departed ... I begged the cloud that hold the heavens to return your soul to us but you still departed ... I called on God to release your soul to us but you still departed .... Your body fought hard but death still ripped you apart & stole away your soul dear brother .... I write this not for the world but for the heavens to read it loud to you .... You were my project here on earth .... I dreamt about us living the life you wished together but your soul still departed ... I will remember you everyday of my life till my eyes are closed ... Rest on jarule till we meet again Adejire Olusegun

Lucas is a year old bruv !

Adejire, so death finally took u away from me, ur son and ur loved ones. Yesterday was ur son's birthday, we both planned for this together but u left me alone to witness it. I can still remember the way u were so excited when I gave birth to him last year. Thinking abt ur departure still get me more confused. I know u are resting @ the bosom of the Lord.
I LUV U AND I MISS YOU SO GREATLY.

Adejire,words dont describe hurt.I can never find expressions for it.I get in and out of the memory of your death like a drunkard.I pray you watch from beyond Iyimide growing into a fine gentleman.Time flies but surely it would happen.I am afraid to confront your mum,my strength and friend,how you made her sad.There atimes I feel like hating you Jisboy,but quickly remember we have our different lives to live.Bless you aburo.Good night my aburo

Days are counting big bruv & no sign of ya yet ! i saw you in my dream last night but i couldn't hold ya ! I cried so loud that i had tears in my eyes in the morning ! Cant stop praying for ya even in death bruv, true definition of love ! You will forever remain in my heart ! Till we meet again egbon ......

Tribute to Adejire Olusegun by Saint Daniels
The beat faded and suddenly the music stopped. A mighty Oak in the forest came crashing, the majestic elephant that bestrode the jungle fell and could not rise again. The news of your demise was no doubt devastating and shocking, words failed me. Exactly 4 months prior to your exit, I sent you messages checking up on you and your family, enquiring about your Auto work, I admonish you to keep giving it all it takes and concluded that you will succeed and come to rival the likes of ELIZADE. In your usual positive manner, you said “I believe you all the way” and also asked how I was doing. Those lofty dreams have been truncated by death callously.
You were a true brother and friend, compassionate, loving and trustworthy. I remember about a decade ago when I needed to make some contacts. I mentioned it to your hearing and the next thing you said was, “let’s go and meet Kabiyesi, he will be able to help you”, I asked “who?” and you replied “Kabiyesi Jegun, he’s my Uncle, I will take you to the Palace to see him”. Off we went the next day, making a first visit to your Granny to invade her pot of soup, we landed in the Palace and true to your words the amiable and Majestic Jegun (Oba Adedugbe) of blessed memory came out, vividly, I recall, it was just the 3 of us, Kabiyesi was intermittently hailing you while he brought out his official letter-headed papers, wrote a note to the individual I need to see and attached his Cards to it. Thereafter we spent more hours gisting with Kabiyesi as I later discovered he was a close friend to my town’s Oba. You never hesitate to lend a helping hand.
Jirexy, as I fondly call you, you memories will be evergreen. May the good Lord uphold and strengthen the folks you left behind, may he soothe the pains of your exit with the Balm of Gilead. Fare thee well a beloved friend, Rest well in the bosom of thy maker where there is no pain…..Peace Profound!!

Tribute by Baron        Hommie you have killed me. I cannot focus, I have been crying for days. Never cried like this in my life. Why Nigga? Why brother? You have killed me Papi. You didn't think of your Niggas. You left without seeing what you Hommie Baron has become. No fun without you. Am not coming to Naija again.
—feeling frustrated.

Tribute by Kehinde Akinbobola             Adejire Olusegun my dear friend,even in death,you've set a very high standard for those of us still alive.You made it clear to us that the distance between life's first cry to final breath is short but the legacy left Thereafter is endless. Never ever have I used someone's picture in my dp for RIP,but this will be the first time I'll be loosing a very close and dear friend of mine.Ever since the news of your demise broke out,I knew everyday would never remain the same again for the friends and family you left behind.Words alone can't express who,what and how much you mean to me. Proverbs18:24b was Talking about You
when he said "...and There's a friend that sticks closer than a
brother".I remember sometime in 1996(about 20 years
ago!)when we just started 'blooding' together,I said something
to you that you are one of the few people alive that can watch
my back and I'll go to sleep with my two eyes...20 years on
the story still remains.Jire is more than a friend,he 'IS' a
brother,he's not not dead but alive in the heart of my heart.Its unfortunate that we got to know the height of your love ,the depth of your loyalty,the width of your influence and the magnitude of your ruggedness in death.continue to rest in the bosom of our LORD JESUS CHRIST.

Tribute by Abimbola Walter Oyawale          A peacemaker,great warrior,civilian soldier,my brother,a friend,adviser,jolly partner...I give you my last respect ADEJIRE OLUSEGUN,no amount of my tears can bring you back dear brother. I will forever remember many of our days together in so many situations and our last hug that looks as if we shouldn't separate on jan8th when I drove down to see you, the advises I will keep, your own goal I pray God turns it around for you to meet heaven where we shall meet again and live forever. My believe of seeing the loved ones again in heaven is becoming more certain, Jahrule you are one of those people I will like to see you again. St Peters Anglican church Ile-oluji where we met in the early '80s is the same place your last service gonna hold,oma se oo! God please console all of us mourning Adejire and kindly be with all the families,most especially his mum. Really wish am with your friends to assist one way or the other and pay this last respect in person. You will live in my heart forever ADEJIRE OLUSEGUN(Jahrule). Sun re lese Jesun! Don Walter.

Tribute by Wale Olojo                 Rest in the Lord my dear brother,friend,confidant. Even though you are my younger brother you are full of great thought. When I was in trouble I always seek your advice. And we talked through problems to find best solution. The Last advice you gave me on my marriage was. "Bros ęmaję kan gęti yin ooo. Ti obinrin baa binu won le daaa waaraa nuu.Sugbon wón o le fun waara. Broda Dewale efaa iyawo yin moora". Your thoughts over everyone of our father's children's has always been good. I remembered the first time i met you,i was in a very dark place in my life, we met in an absurd way yet you took me like you have known me for years. The next day you took me to Ife garage and proudly introduced me to almost everyone that was around that this is my brother. What can i say ,we share great memories together in Akure, Lagos,and at Ado ekiti. You are always joking and creating stories to amuse people around you. I always laugh whenever you call one of my sister Eleyele or Olobe, You advocate for our father and other members of our family without even putting yourself first. As you returned to dust today, you will always be remembered by all of US. Sunre ooooo omo okeruyę kimiya funna okedotaa. Adejire The Son of Olusegun
ADIEU my brother.

Tibute by Oni Afolabi           My heartfelt sympathy goes to the Oluseguns for the demise of Egbon Jire.
Waking up on sunday morning to see this sad news on facebook was something I found hard to believe until I went through his
facebook wall.
I know a lot of things will be going through the mind of "Mummy Olusegun" right now.
Growing up in Ondo town was made easier by this amiable family.
In 2011 when "The Onis" suffered their own calamity when we suddenly lost Oni Ajibola, this family stood by us through their
prayers, calls and text messages despite the distance.
How I would have loved to tell them that coping with such calamity would be easier and the wound healing soon.
The truth is that the pain can never go away and the wound might heal, but the scar will still be there for everybody to see.
All I can say is that "May God guide Bro. Adejire Olusegun on the journey to his final destination."
To those loved ones left behind, may God continue to console you and give you reasons to be happy.
Olusegun Oluwatobi Olusegun Adenike Olusegun Olubunmi Adeola

Tribute by Oyinda Adepoju     Dearest cousin,
the only memory I have of you is you somersaulting several years ago back in Ile-Oluji. I also remember congratulating you via Facebook sometimes in 2014 after you got married. I surely thought I'd one day come to see you, your wife, and your beautiful son. Like everybody else, I didn't know that was never to be, that the few memories I had of you would be all I would ever have ...Say hi to Grandpa and Grandma for me, and sleep tight
Love, Oyinda
