My earliest memory of Mama Adebajo was as a Primary School pupil, on an excursion to WNTV/WNBS in Ibadan. She was the most articulate beautiful woman I ever was, I also remember her anchoring “Women’s World” a feminine Program on television, She would advise women, talks to experts, working women, house wives and young ladies on how to be prim and proper. She was pioneer of women’s rights and how to break the proverbial “Glass Ceiling” and taking control of their homes and Fashion. She was an inspiring soul always there for all who came to her with their troubles with kind words and wise advice.
“Broadcasting is not just about going there to show Glamour or being projected on TV so that you became popular, You must be prepared to have something extra & Special to offer” Sunday Mirror Dec 13th 2013. Her words most recently, most of our so call media women could learn from Mommy.
In her later years, she was dedicated to the service of God, she would hold a conversation with whoever, with attention, panache and always have a pleasant demeanour. I share same birthday with Mommy. in the 70s While in boarding School in Ogbogbo Ijebu, Mama always visit, reasons which i got to know much latter, I would always approach mama to say hello and good afternoon, of course there is always something for me.
Ronke & I deeply sympathize with you Kunle, Sylvia & Ade on the death of your mother. We understand and empathise with the grieve in your heart. May Her Soul Rest In Peace.
