In lovingly memory of our famous mummy Adeloye alias Iya Tokunbo. Mama was a loving mother and also a disciplinarian, with so many guys under her care she had to be. Her hospitality was without measure, from Apapa rd to Oluyombo st her house swarmed with visitors, especially the many friends of her children. Mummy Ketu you were a great friend to my mum late chief Mrs V S Omooba. Your husband's brought you together and you became sisters for life.

TRIBUTE TO OUR LOVING GRANDMA, CHIEF (MRS) E. B. ADELOYE

Grandma, as we all called you, I thank God for your life and the good legacy you left behind.
Nobody wants his or her loved one to go no matter the age, but you have been preparing for the day to come because about five years ago, you called Mr. Samuel O. Daramola Olaleye your half-brother representing your father's side, late Reverend E. Adeyomoye representing your mother's side and I representing your husband's side that we should start looking for a very good and effective mortuary where your body would be preserved till when our brothers and sister (your children) would be ready to join hands with family members to give you a befitting burial with fanfare because death could come at anytime. The coronavirus pandemic ravaging the world at this time has prevented us from fulfilling some your desires.
You were 2-in-1 in our family, a daughter and a wife, because you once told me that when our grandfather, Late PA Ezekiel Adeloye led members of our family to your father's house at Araromi Quarters Ilupeju Ekiti to ask for your hand in marriage with his son Late Chief W. E. Adeloye. Your father declined the proposal because according to him you are a sister to your would be husband because your paternal grandmother was a member of our family and thus it was impossible for both of you to get married. But as God had already ordained it, you became husband and wife with the consent of your father and the whole family. Despite the relationship, you did not look down on any member of our family whether great or small.
I thank God again for the wonderful children He blessed our mother with, they took good care of her and always made her comfortable till she breathed her last breath and she lacked nothing.
Grandma was a devoted Christian I meet her reading her Bible always whenever I visited her. At times she would quite bible passages to me so I can read when I get home. As old as she was, she always read the bible without glasses. She didn't joke with her tithes no matter how small the money she got was before using the rest for her own personal needs.
I am happy that God heard her prayers because she always prayed that she did not want any of her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and those taking good care of her from her husband's side and from both her father mother's sides to go before her and God answered the prayer.
I cannot quantify the honour and respect she gave me and the trust she had in me. She was loved by all members of her husband's family. She was acommommodating and she didn't discriminate. If you go to her with sadness, you will leave with her presence with happiness. She was a good adviser.
The popular songs of mama included the following
1. MO DUPE NITORI MO RI ANU GBA
2.EMI O YIN O BABA, OLUDA AIYE OOO EMI O YIN BABA, KINIUN EYA JUDAH, E MI OYIN O BABA EMI O YIN, EMI O YIN I BABA.
I know that you have gone to glory and I am sure you will get the place ready for me like our fathers, mothers and your loving husband did for you.
Please, rest in peace and in the glory of our Lord and Saviour Jesus' Christuntil we transit someday into God's glory when we shall live together forever.
SUN RE O ABIYAMO RERE.

To My Amazing Grandma,
    The day you came to America and I met you in person was one of the best days of my life. You were always easy-going, happy, and effervescent. The time that I spend with you, there was never a dull moment. Your smile would always bring warmth to someones soul and leave a smile on their face. You have achieved many things in your life. Your life was an adventure. You have travel to many places like, Israel, Britain and the United States. You lived your life to the fullest. You inspire me everyday to never give up and try new things.
Grandma you taught me many things, one of them was, whatever situation i face was to put my trust in God. You would always put people in your prayers. You would pray to God and say God is in control. I was so blessed to have you in my life. I wished God would have given us more time to make more memories. But God knows the best. You are in the hands of our maker. May you continue to look down on us. You will always remain in my heart forever.
Mo ni fe re, Grandma.
Rest in perfect peace.

A Life well lived is a precious gift, of hope and strength and grace, from someone who has made our world, a brighter and better place.

It’s filled with moments, sweet and sad with smiles and sometimes tear, with friendship formed and good times share, and laughter through the years.

A life well lived is a legacy, of joy and pride and pleasure, a living lasting memory our grateful hearts will treasure.

Rest well Ma

Rest in peace my lovely grandma.

Mama was always a very jovial person. She was always happy and excited whenever I called or visited her.

I was privileged to attend her 87th birthday Thanksgiving service and I was happy to see her immense involvements in different charity organizations.

Mama, may God almighty accept all your good deeds and contributions. May God accept all your labor of love. May the angels of God admit you into the gates of paradise and may God continue to bless the family you left behind.

Ode to my Mom

My Mom, Eunice Omobobola was first created as an Angel, then she came to this world 88 years ago to live like an Angel and at 10.40pm on the peaceful evening of 14 May 2020, she departed to heaven to continue her service as an Angel. How Glorious !!

Her eldest Son, Adetokunbo and I became friends at Unilag in the early '80s and I would sleepover at their family home from time to time. Toks and I took to each other like bread and butter and Mummy adopted me into a Hen and Chick relationship that would endure for about 40 years.
She engraved me in her heart as Toks' twin brother and engrafted me into her family as de facto elder brother to Ademidayo, OluwaDamilola, IretiOgo and Monisola.
I lived at home with her as a young Bachelor till November of 1990 and in that period she taught me how to pray and commune with Jehovah her father.
When I opened my professional office at 47 Marina, Lagos in 1998, Mommy was the 'Pastor' that dedicated the space and I prospered in that place.

She was my Mentor for a while but I remained her close Confidant till her last days.
Her love for me was so pure and so robust that even my biological mother, whom I loved no less, was jealous of us.

Clearly I have been truly blessed to have as my Mom one of the most beautiful, most resourceful and most accomplished of women I have ever known, despite all constraints and biases.
Today, I celebrate her life and rejoice in her reunion with her Father in heaven whom she served indubitably and indefatigably while on earth.

Mummy, you have "fought the good fight, you have finished the race, you have kept the faith. From now on, the Crown of righteousness is laid up for you..." (2 Timothy 4:7-8).
I will celebrate the love we shared and cherish your memory for the rest of my days.
I ask you all to please join me in shouting seven resounding Halleluyah in honour of the sweetest mother ever!!

Love you Mom.  Requiescant in pace donec iterum conveniant.

I remember the first time I met Mummy back in Ibadan when the family came over to our family for formal introductions. I could immediately see where my soon-to-be brother-in-law Toks (a.k.a. “My Bros”), inherited his very good looks from!

Mummy was a real family woman. She loved spending time with her grandchildren. It was her pride and joy feeding and nurturing them when she was on holiday with them when they were younger. She was very kind to me and always greeted me with a warm smile.

One thing I remember that Mummy did not like was the cold. In winter, she wore so many layers! I would tell her “Mummy, I can't believe you are wearing a shirt under your sweater!” and I recall she would pull that up her shirt to show me a thermal vest underneath, and this by the way was indoors! We always had a good laugh.

I thank God she got to see her many grandchildren and was even a great grandmother! I also thank God for the blessing that Mummy was.

Mummy, may your soul rest in peace.

Grandma, beautiful inside out. Even though I am an in law, grandma would engage me each time I went over and we would talk for hours touching on diverse topics as she would with her own son.

SLEEP ON GRANDMA.    

I really had awesome moments with you while you were still here with us. Your were indeed an outstanding mother among the rest. You were loving, fun to be with, selfless, accommodating and above all, a giver.

I will forever miss your lovely lyrics sang in Ekiti dialect. Those songs came effortless from a very pure heart. I won't forget the lovely gift you gave me at your 87th birthday. 

Your passing on came to me as a rude shock. I will indeed miss you. Sun re mama rere.

The Olaleye family are all bereaved and so equally qualified to console each other over the loss of Mama Bobola. My childhood memories of mama Ketu will lingers forever in my heart. I can still remember vividly how my late father, Pa Giwa Olaleye her uncle will send me to deliver yams, plantains and other foodstuffs to her whenever she comes for a visit from Lagos to Ilupeju. The foodstuffs packed in a big basket, and I will carry it on my head from Araromi to her house.
Immediately she sighted me at a distance, she will start saluting me in our family “Oriki”
‘ O kun o, Kare omo ogun ule Uro
Omo olose kan-an meyinti j’oye
Omo olose meji tako tabo
Omo alagbado orara ruru
Aimona gbe sinu agbado .......
Kare o, O seun o’
I used to get very excited to hear her saluting me in our family “Oriki” which she was saying effortlessly.

She was the first person to give me brand new Naira notes. I think she always collected brand new Naira notes from the bank whenever she is coming home because she gives me new notes every time.
As a child I was always eager to go and greet / deliver messages to her from my father.
I didn’t know the last time I will see her was at Seun Daramola-Olaleye’s wedding in Nigeria.
We will miss you a lot in our family.
Sun Re o Mama Ketu.

To a special Mother in Law

When I think of Mummy, I can just see her in my mind’s eye - very elegant, fashionable and always extremely well co-ordinated!

Another hallmark of Mummy’s was that she was very jovial! She always had lots of amusing stories to tell that would keep everyone laughing!

Mummy was quite an amazing woman. She truly had a large heart and was a mother, not just to her own, but to countless others.

Mummy loved, and was truly loved and cherished.

Most importantly, Mummy was a very devoted Christian who loved God. She ran well and she finished strong.

Thank you Mummy for all that you were to us. May your beautiful soul rest in peace.

With love

Only last month, April 6, I called Mama Adeloye to congratulate her on her birthday and as usual she immediately recognized my voice and in her usual nice voice and joyous disposition she sang along with me and then exclaimed, "Daddy Ibadan, how nice of you as you always remember my birthday." Then she started praying for me for our good relationship to last forever. She never sounded ill at all.
Mama oninu re, a lover of her children, a woman who fears God, loves God and trusts God. You have lived such a good life and by the grace of God you are survived by five wonderful children, two of whom I am proud to say, Tokunbo and Dayo are now my children. I will really miss your charm and hospitality.
Adieu sweet mother and keep resting in the bosom of the Lord.

Mummy Adeloye,
Words elude me when I heard of your passing on. But the Lord knows best. I knew you as an industrious woman, never mincing words and a lover of the propagation of the gospel.

Yourself and my late mum had a unique relationship that most of us never understood. After her demise I just did not know how to face you cause previously you kept on saying she must live to see your passing on but our God knows best.

Mummy, Mummy, you were a great woman!

You came, you saw & you conquered!
 
Despite all your challenges, background & constraints in life...you broke through!
 Despite all your pains, betrayals, tears & weaknesses...you came out strong and on top!
 You achieved feats & dreams that an average person of your group could not!
 You were a record breaker & an award winning woman!
 You opened the door of your house to so....many of us...wahooo...one in a million mother!
 Now as a woman.... I now understand it all ... better...
 
Thanks for being one of my memories & a challenge
 The last time I was with you in Lagos, you encouraged me & emphasized once again that I should stand and not fail God knowing that life is a battle.

Indeed, in you is fulfilled the scripture in Gen. 32:28 "...hast thou power with God & men, and hast prevailed"
 You've only gone to be with your Lord whom you loved so much...Rejoice in his bosom & Rest on!
 
To my twin-sister (Moni) take heart...Mummy deserve to rest.
 And to my big brothers (Tokunbo, Dayo, Damilola & Ireti ) ...please be strong & keep the bond.
 Love you all.

Adieu mummy...rest on...

Dear Grandma
    The matriarch, you were the strongest and most beautiful woman I ever known. That night I watched and saw you fight death, but all I could do was sit close by. I'm grateful I got to share your last few days here on Earth with you. The last conversation we had the day we were home alone together soothed my heart, and immediately I loved you more. You thought me how to read the Yoruba bible, no one pronounces my name better than you do.
  Rest well Grandma, I'm missing you already strong woman

MY GRAND MA.

I practically met you since my infancy been part of the larger househood of omo ode Iaye of Ilupeju -Ekiti. I became more fond of you after my wedding. Each of my visit to your house was memorable.

My wife was always thrill with the way you " Salamo" (The Ekiti lyrics in praise to God). The Lyrics came effortlessly making everyone around to appreciate our culture and heritage.

I can't forget my last visit which was on mothers' day (10/05/2020). We spoke extensively, though you were weak but not restless so i did not see death coming. We even spoke on 12th May,2020 and i was happy cos you sounded more lively than my last visit.

I could remember the advice and assurance you gave me saying "Olorun mi a kuku se ohun taa nwa" (My God will definitely grant our desires). I never knew that would be the last time i will see you.
I am loud i met you and i knew you. Sleep on eye mi agba, Eunice Bobola Adeloye aya Uba mi Willie Ekundayo Oke Adeloye.


Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
The strife is o'er, the battle done,
the victory of life is won;
the song of triumph has begun.
Alleluia!

The powers of death have done their worst,
but Christ their legions hath dispersed:
let shout of holy joy outburst.
Alleluia!

The three sad days are quickly sped,
he rises glorious from the dead:
all glory to our risen Head!
Alleluia!

He closed the yawning gates of hell,
the bars from heaven's high portals fell;
let hymns of praise his triumphs tell!
Alleluia!

Lord! by the stripes which wounded thee,
from death's dread sting thy servants free,
that we may live and sing to thee.
Alleluia!

Alleluya! Alleluya!! Alleluya!!!
Ija d’opin ogun si tan:

RIP mummy Leko. My mom never stopped talking about how well you took care of me and my sister in infancy and early childhood. I would always be grateful. Indeed, my childhood memories and of Lagos would not be complete without a mention of you. You would affectionately call me “ Se Se”, a name you still called me when I last spoke with you a couple of weeks prior to your passing. Ironically, anytime I talked about seeing you again you would say “ ki o ba ti a ba mi” meaning, “if you would still meet me”, hmmmmmm.
E sun re o mummy Leko, you would always be remembered!

*My tribute to our mother, Mrs Eunice Omobobola Adeloye*

The news of the demise of my mother Chief (Mrs) Omobobola Adeloye came as a shock most especially when it happened barely a month after her birthday and after she spoke and prayed with me a day before her passing to glory . I couldn't control my tears. She's the definition of a mother. Although she was not my biological mother, she never discriminated against me throughout my stay with her.


She got married in 1952 to Chief W.E Adeloye, native of Ilupeju Ekiti. Chief W.E Adeloye who was an established accountant. He travelled to United kingdom in 1956 and both later settled down after his return from UK in Lokoja where he worked as an accountant in Federal Public Service, Inland Water Ways Department, Lokoja in 1959.

Following the relocation of her husband who became a Director of Finance and Admin in Nigeria Broadcasting Corporation both then settled in Lagos

Chief (Mrs) Eunice Omobobola Adeloye was a successful Merchant. She dealt in textile and registered with a distributing company in Ikeja where I would always follow her during holidays.

She was a passionate mother and caring parent to all her wards. To both her biological and non biological children, she epitomized love, care, passion and all good African motherly virtues. She has 5 children which I automatically became the sixth and the eldest and she still cared for me when i got married. I am tremendously grateful to her.

To all the children- as you have looked after her during her old age, I pray that God will make your children dutiful to you too and make them coolness of your eyes.

The list of her non biological children are inexhaustible.
Growing up with her, she was highly industrious, hygienic and God fearing. People close to her can testify to the fact that she was a devout Christian. Aside her honest merchandising, she contributed towards humanitarian development which was rewarded by numerous awards and titles given to her. She's the Iyalode of Ijo St John's Anglican church, Ilupeju Ekiti. She's also the president of Ladies Progressive League, All Saints Church, Ketu. She was installed as the Eyetuase of Ilupeju Ekiti.

She lived in many Nigerian commercial cities and also in Britain and United States of America.

I got both my basic and secondary education because of her encouragement and support. She made it a duty upon herself that I was well taken care of. She was fond of me just like her children. Whilst living with her I worked as a clerical officer in Military of Defence in Lagos and Thomas Wyatt at Costain. She provided for my needs and cherished me more than words could express. Even after my marriage and before i went to join my Late husband Dr Idowu Ogunleye In Ibadan, I stayed with her with my first daughter Omolara Ololade and my son Seyi Ogunleye. Her fondness of me can't be over stated. I was extremely comfortable with her.

Before her death she was constantly in touch with us. I could vividly remember that she called me a day to her demise and passionately prayed for me- not knowing that would be our last conversation! She will forever live in our hearts. She will forever be remembered for her motherly role and fondness of both her biological and non-biological children.
To all her children, I pray for her soul to rest in eternal peace and Gods comfort during this time. She lived a good life and blessed with good health.

I write this with a heavy but grateful heart because of Mummy Eunice Bobola Adeloye. Death can take us at any given time. The family of Late Ekundayo Williams Adeloye have lost a beautiful soul to Heaven's gain. Eunice Bobola Adeloye is a virtuous and a woman of substance who devoted her life in totality of the good care of her husband during his lifetime and to the care of all her children, both biological and non-biological. She was a very loving mum who took me as her biological son. Mummy, you were always there with your love and care. I am glad you were part of my life and I feel I am very lucky and blessed to have 2 Mums in my life. Mummy Eunice, you were warm, compassionate and vibrant. You were the epitome of beauty in the arms of your husband - our daddy. Late Chief Ekundayo Williams Adeloye and Mummy Bobola Eunice built an exemplary Christian home. I am grateful to God for I know by inspiration that they are both now happily resting with God their Maker. Mummy Eunice was a very strong, godly person with a strong faith, who also saw me growing up along with my biological mother. If it was dependent on our prayers and what we want, mummy Eunice would still be here now but it pleases the Lord to call her home to His glory.
My dearest brothers and sister Adetokunbo, Adedayo, Damilola, Ireti and Monisola, please take heart. Rejoice in everything, give thanks to the Lord for your dearest Mum are resting with God in HIS eternal peace, and God will fill the vacuum they left. I mourn and rejoice with you -

She was kind, accommodating, generous, industrious and humorous. She had a special nickname for me which she used to teased me with whenever we met. My mum told me she gave me that name when I was an infant. Of course, she teased me with the name the last time I saw her at a wedding ceremony at Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria about 12 years ago. She was beautiful inside and outside. May mama's soul rest in perfect peace.

In loving memories of a beloved Mama Ketu. A devoted daughter of God, a great mother, grandma, sister, Aunty & cousin. Mama was a paragon of beauty. I salute a loving & kind-hearted woman. Very compassionate but a disciplinarian who never mix apples with oranges. You are forever honored. A bonafide first daughter of Late Pa Oguntuase Daramola Olaleye.
Mama, you never mix words. I remember vividly the last time l saw you in Lagos at the wedding of Seun, your niece. You hugged me so tightly & said “Hu un Omo Uba mi Giwa,” she said l would not fault you this time, next time you visit Nija, make sure, you come to spend a night with me at Ketu. I said yes Ma. Hard l know, that would be the last time that l would see her. However, we will see each other again at the resurrection day where there be no crying & tears. Now l salute you to your origin

A quintessential matriarch. Intuitive. A strategist par excellence. A tactician who was ahead by ten steps. A warrior in the real sense of the word. An all round success in this life. Your legacies corroborates all these. And REST IN PERFECT SERENITY.
Will miss mighty much. Goodnight great grandma, the last of the origins.

                          Missing You     
Mommy, you nurtured me when I was small and taught me when I grew. The values, lessons, hopes and dreams became a part of me. You are the most beautiful and strongest mom l have ever known. l admire you for your strength, kindness and compassion.
  Though, you have gone but your love for me remains and always be within my heart. l miss you and love you dearly. God knows, l wish you were here. Tears fall freely from my eyes. Like a river filled with grief. My only comfort now, is that, from pain you have found relief.
   Thank you will never be enough, for everything you have done. l will always love you and miss you, until we meet again in heaven.

Your baby girl,

My lovely Grandma,
         I've only met you once, but that first meet, meant the world to me. I love you and always will. You will stay in our hearts and follow us forever. You are near us even though we can't see you. You are in my heart, in my thoughts, and in my life always. The last time I heard your voice I told you that we were going to visit you this summer, and we wanted you to hang on until then, but God knows best. You have laid a path for us and we will follow it. Your gracious heart and loving soul will warm us in our sleep, thank you for being my grandma, you will forever be missed.

Your Granddaughter

Dear Grandma,
  How I wish time could have permitted me to know more about you, however, the little that I know will live in me forever. You have accomplished goals and missions that God laid out for you. I also know that you have a strong will and a soothing heart. As well as an unbreakable bond with those you love that no one can shatter. You have accomplished things that I could only dream of doing, you are the most amazing person, mother, grandma and wife that anyone could ever wish for. I just hope and pray you left this world with a smile and no regrets. I love you and always will, you will always be a cherished memory in my heart.
Your Grandson,
Olamilekan Adeloye
