Happy Post Humous Birthday Daddy. Keep Resting in the Bossom of our Lord Jesus Christ.
This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Hon. Justice Ibrahim Shaibu 61
years old, born on December 31, 1958 and passed away on June 21, 2020. He was a loving Husband, Father, Brother, Friend & Co labourer in God's vineyard. A Man with a heart of Gold, who spent his life ministering to the needs of others.
His favourite scripture Mark 11: 22-25 is a practical example of how he lived his life, full of faith in God.
" So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them".
Hon. Justice Ibrahim Atadoga Shaibu was privileged to have received Jesus Christ as his Lord and Saviour at an early age through his encounter with Missionaries from Christian Missions in Many Lands (CMML) at His Village in Akpacha, Omala LGA Kogi State. He attended Sunday School as a Child and learnt the word of God through Bible Quizzes and Games. His experience as a Child birth his Children Ministry which holds between the 31st of December -2nd of January every Year. Children from neighbouring villages and Local Governments around Akpacha gather at his Home in Akpacha to be ministered to with the word of God. The children who attend also have fun with Bible Games & Quiz, refreshments,and leave with Bibles and School Supplies. He is also a member of various Christian Organisations Christian Lawyers Fellowship of Nigeria (CLASFON), Fellowship of Christian Students (FCS), a devoted member of Evangelical Church of West Africa (ECWA), Christian Missions in Many Lands (CMML) Akpacha and many others.
Hon. Justice Ibrahim Atadoga Shaibu was called to the Nigerian Bar Association in Year 1986 and after years of dedicated Private Practice and Public Service, he rose to become the President of the Kogi State Customary Court of Appeal. His tenure brought about lots of reforms to the Customary Court.
He will be greatly missed by his Wife, Children, Family & Friends.

Here we go again, another 365 days around the sun without you. Today makes it exactly 2years since you passed on the 21st of June 2020 and exactly 2years and 5months since my Dad passed on the 21st of January 2020, I can still hear your voices appreciating,
motivating and encouraging me and I can never forget how both of you always told me you were proud of me even when I thought my efforts were so little and insignificant yet the both of you always encouraged me, uplifted my spirit and made me feel better about myself, you always rewarded me far beyond my efforts. Since you left things have never been the same, but God Almighty has never left us and He has been Faithful, He is truly the Father to the Fatherless. Thank you for being an angel and always believing in me during the few moments I had the privilege of spending with you. I thank God I met you. Keep resting in the bosom of the Master.

This is unbelievable! I am shocked beyond words!!! Ibrahim, dead??? Since June last year??? Oh no, no, no! The man who introduced me to my beloved wife, who was there for us through thick and thin, who nurtured us in the Faith!! I recall speaking with him early last year. Him promising to visit with us when next in The States - after the pandemic! How didn't we hear of his untimely death?? How??? Gentle Ibrahim, committed C.S. Lewis disciple, mentor to my wife, Christine! Why death, oh why??? You will be terribly missed my brother, my friend, my colleague at the Bar. Sleep on till we meet to part no more!! Still can't believe I'm writing this of Ibrahim Atadoga Shaibu!!! Still can't believe it...

Just like a dream you left the scene when your contributions was needed most; you're a father of all, a beacon of hope and charity, a great trailblazer defined by simplicity and humility.
Daddy! You were an ardent believer of Christ and won so many soul to work in his vineyard. Your demise created a big vacuum; it was a big lost for us but heaven gained a faithful soldier and follower of Christ. The Omala nation has lost an illustrious son.
Goodnight to a great pathfinder of peace and unity! You're greatly missed. May God rest your amazing soul....

Missing you is inevitable! I can categorically say you were one of a kind, very rare and caring father like no other.
Short of words to express myself on how you were loved, respected and missed because all the things you stood for still stands. Words elude me, I can’t be sad when I know life itself is transient.
Continue to rest in God’s glory Sir.
