My dearest cousin, it is still so hard to accept you are gone. You were kind hearted , caring and touched so many lives in a positive way. Rest in everlasting peace cuz, I miss you already. Sun re o egin xxxx

Wow. Still feels like a dream. Cousin, you were such an inspiration, and you lived life to the full. I'm still at loss for words. Rest in perfect peace.

Now a moment of silence...
Let us pray...
As you journey into outer space,‎ may the angels help to lead the way. And may the prayers that our families make, shine upon your soul to keep it safe.
And as you journey through the tunnel's light, ‎I hope it leads to eternal life. And may all our homies that have passed away be there to greet you as you pass the gates.
‎Today, i say these prayers for my cousin my friend Funto Akinkugbe

Funto, you were full of life; not a boring moment with you....... Oh death where is thy sting! Will miss you so dearly; pray God helps Bukky and the children to feel His ever comforting presence. Sleep on brother

Cousin na wah o. Many questions but God knows best. You will be missed dearly. May God comfort your loved ones as HE only can do.

I bid adieu to you today.
What an exit you made…silently, all of a sudden,
without giving life a chance to trouble you with pain
or remorse.
Your final act shall always be remembered. Rest in
peace with the angels above.

Funto you are truly the life of the party a quintessential Ondo dude. We never did get to sample that Thai Pub joint at Nottinghill Gate. You are not gone but called to the glory of God , sleep tight & may you find solace in his bosom. You are missed immensely ....Adieu Ondo Egin Omo Ekimogun

I met him years ago on a public speaking course hosted by Richard Dayo Johnson. He was simple in words and actions. Even though it is painful - we have to trust the soverignty of God in this matter. May God's peace be upon the family during this period and may he continue to be the solid rock and foundation

Rest in peace, Funto. Too young and too soon. Thanks for your generosity and support and condolences to your family.

Can't believe it!,, sun re o,

Soul brother, what the heck. Perplexed beyond words. God knows best why the nicest ones go first. Rest Well bro. Ondo has lost one of its brightest stars

So full of life. Great personality. So encouraging. You will be greatly missed. Rest in peace egin...

Rest in Perfect Peace Dear Friend...

Can't begin to recount all the good times we had, see you in my dreams...

Later, to the great beyond...

Thank God for your life, well lived and leaving us like a Hero going Home...

Short,yet impactful life!
May your gentle soul rest in peace.

Big bros Funto....the first person that made me laugh at a low point in life. I will never forget that visit. You remained the strong pillar and showed the true meaning of family and love. It was really a privilege to know you. Rest in peace. Love, Molola

It is hard to imagine one can ever experience such unbelievable pain as this...

Dearest cousin, you were larger than life. It is not the duration on earth but the impact ones life has that matters. Funto you lived a meaningful life.

There isn't a logical explanation for this we can only take comfort that God knows best.

Sun re Egbon mi. Odigba.. Till we meet again...

Funto....I'm short of words at the moment.
May the Lord strengthen all yours at this time.

Funto, May your soul rest in perfect peace Amen!

A big loss to the Akinkugbe family, Ondo, Nigeria & Nigeria as whole. RIP Funto.

Funto,
GOD has you in HIS keeping, we all have you in our hearts.
Sleep on, till we meet again....

God knows best..... You will be missed by many. RIP Funto

Funto from the first day we meet you were so passionate about our country Nigeria.. you wanted to make your mark by finding talent for Africa.

We were supposed to meet to catch up . You had recently reached out to me .. then I heard you were gone.. just like that.. no warning ..so final. Still in shock.

My heart goes out to your entire family,your friends and colleagues.May God be their strength at this very difficult time.

Gone too soon! Still find it hard to believe you are gone. May your soul rest in perfect peace and may the good Lord comfort your dear wife, Buky, and your family.

The man, the brother, the friend... Shocking that a great agent of change, of hope could leave at short notice.. It's painful indeed but like your family I take refuge trusting you are with our Lord God.. Sun re bro.. May God comfort your family left behind.. Thanks for being a great fellow..
