One year gone like one day.......you are forever missed my dearest Pop ❤
Thank you for living for GOD and giving your existence to Him. I love you forever

What's left to say about you dearest Pop You were an angel in human body and a myriad of personality to all who knew you. To Rhoda you were God's way of showing me what ABBA's love is. You were His gift to me and I will forever be grateful for the privilege of been fathered by you. What is not to love about you Pop? You loved hard and genuinely.....I'll forever be grateful for the privilege ABBA gave me through you. To say I miss you is an understatement........the good, the bad and the ugly has really been after your passing but I'm assured that for ABBA to have called you when He did.......He will not leave me nor forsake me. I love you my dearest Pop and I miss coming to make ekuru for you . Till we meet to part no more......your beloved LC

Hmmm......
How time flies
Happy 1st posthumous birthday. Were you to be on this side of the divide, t'would have been your 82nd....
I know you're resting in the bosom of our Lord Jesus. You're with the host of heaven singing hosanna in the highest to our Heavenly Father.
I/we miss you more everyday and even though I have soooo much to say, wisdom says let my words be few.
You were indeed the best anyone could have as a human father, you represented Our Heavenly Father well.
Continue to rest in peace

You chose to be there for people,GOD raised people too for you Daddy.Ase otito nla Ni pe,Ko sa segbe laye yi.What a man sows,he will reap & more! Just like you told Me on Thursday morning,d 27th of May,that people were dancing,rejoicing & drinking and d water didn't finish.O ga Daddy,the drinks honestly didn't finish by GOD'S grace.
I prayed for you,barely two weeks to your departure from this Earth,Pe ki OLUWA ninu anu RE,jeki iku ye yin & you said AMEN thrice in Yoruba. Haa Bami o,Aye Ope NLA Yo.
We thank Baba Revd I.Akanji, Baba Revd J Olawuyi,Baba Revd V.Oyelowo and Baba Revd Salako. They all did so well. Ayo le fi gba o.
Daddy,Awon MMU nko,I salute them. GOD bless them all ati awon excellent Royal Ambassadors,haba big kudos to you all.

Eyin Bami yio da fun gbogbo wa pata pata Loruko JESU AMIN.
On a lighter mood,Dad am sure you might have asked of a Baptist Church in Heaven,but I doubt there's any church there.Even at your burial service,they called you Baba Baptist. It least through the Nigeria Baptist Church,you gave Us all solid Christian foundation. We thank you Dad. We can't stop talking. As I daily talk wt you dear Old Man.Aaya,I heard your daughter Bimbo cried so much on just seeing your casket in church. We all miss you Dad!!! Okayyy byeee & Greet all loved ones there too.

My dear beloved Grandpa, so for real I will never see you again except in my dreams. Seeing your body today really made me sad, that so one person I really loved and loved me back has gone. I know you're in a better place now. You were one person I knew if I needed help I could count on. Grandpa I never knew you were going to go so soon, I never knew that two days before you died when you came to see my mum and I told you bye was for the very last time, how I wish I said see you soon by God's grace, without me knowing that was very last time I was going to see you alive, smiling, talking and cracking jokes with me. You were one person who would call my mum everyday, talk with her, giving her hope, advicing her, encouraging her, telling her you love her. Oh my Grandpa I miss you dearly. Pls be there for me and be my guardian angel. I know you can see and hear me. Bye Grandpa, good night sir. Modebola loves you.

Dear Daddy!!! It is even harder to believe I will never see or hear your wonderful face and your sweet voice here on earth again.
I miss the way you call me. My beloved lady, oloko anty mi etc.
Daddy I missed you so much, I missed your monthly encouraging messages always assuring me all will be well, I missed the way you usually hold my hands and squeeze it. I miss how you will always come back with goodies whenever you are in Abuja at the guest house.
Daddy I love you beyond words. Continue to rest in peace with the Lord. I shall see you on the resurrection morning. Sureo Baba mi dada.

Daddy my Daddy! I will miss that soft voice that speaks to calm the situation down when we do wrong and our Daddy Engr. Ezekiel Agboola Laka wants to flog us or scold us for doing wrong, that voice that calls me 'Beloved, Ezekiela' you were indeed one of a kind, being there for us when our Daddy was no more. Remembering our birthdays each one of us! Always being the first to send me a 'Happy Mother's day' greeting. Showing us indeed what genuine friendship is all about and how it should be.
Lord help me walk in this manner and be a blessing to those around me.
Rest on and send my love to my Parents Engr and Mrs E. A Laka ❤️.
I love you all ❤️
Adieu till we meet to part no more.

Daddy I want to first thank God for a beautiful life you lived. You were so special to my dad and that love was passed unto us.

I can't forget your lovely tribute to my dad at his funeral. All I have to say to anyone is "do you remember the daddy that told us how he stole plenty meat from my dad when they lived as bachelors & how he has finished a cow?", they will laugh and say yes we remember him.

Daddy continue to rest in the bossom of the Lord. I love you & will miss you & yours calls and messages. Sun re O!

You were not only an Uncle to us but a father. A caring and dearly beloved brother to your only sister; our sleeping mother!
The news and shock of your passing on is still so strong. It feels like a dream.
You stood with us, giving us strength and courage for living after Mom's demise. You were a father to us in everything: giving us reasons for a better tomorrow.
Now you have joined our beloved Mom and Dad.
You lived for Christ, our redeemer, to the gain of heaven. And for as long as memory lingers, you will live on in our hearts.

Writing a tribute because of your unexpected passing is very painful. Words cannot describe this difficult moment, but if this is the last time we get to say goodbye, then we know we are doing so because we are so blessed to have lived this life as your nieces and nephew. Your love for us is one that is only comparable to that of a mother, this is so because it’s indescribable.
We can never forget the joyful countenance, cheerfulness, and unending generosity you always exhibit whenever you see or hear about any of us; It was your unique identity.
You kept the ties of kinship with us till the very end. We are so grateful for this.
We never imagined
that your departure would come so soon. Our comfort is in the fact that you have fulfilled your destiny.
You lived for Christ to the gain of heaven!
You finish your race well.
You will always remain in our hearts and be forever missed.

Good night Dear Uncle, a.k.a Baba Kaduna, until we meet in glory!

Yesterday d 6th of July,as I was buying some fruits,d seller said,Ebami ki Baba ooo. I said,Se Baba to ti ku. She shouted. I smiled and she started saying very nice things about My Daddy. I also went to Dad's Pos man( An Alfa) to collect some money and they all started testifying about Daddy.They said in their short period of knowing themselves. Dad wld come and buy minerals for everyone around.Theres a woman frying what is called "beske" in ilorin,it's a soya milk wara what is wara called nowww ....ok cheese abi? I heard dad wld buy 200# worth for each persons there when he went there. And ystrdy dad's driver cldnt buy 100# beske for himself until after I heard & said so you can't buy for yourself. People love awuf sha. Even d beske woman just kept blessing Me,all because of the noble and very godly character of a man called Noah Bankole Oyalade. THANK GOD for your Life Dad.Till this morning even dad's doctor and lots have posted Dad as their profile pics. Bami you were honestly a good man.

Not a single day has passed that I have not felt your physical absence so badly Dad. I know you're smiling & praying for GOD'S divine grace for Me in it all..... IN JESUS NAME AMEN.
You were such a very special being,that you so forgave so effortlessly. Even if you were reminded of any known evil anyone had done you,you'd say I have forgiven,so you all should learn to let go and Let GOD.
Also My dad had a kind of sweet character such that if Dad gave anyone any money or gift no matter how big it was,if anyone of Us ever heard of it,it wasn't through or from Daddy, NEVER!!!
Maybe through his drivers(GOD forgive Me) who might have just said it casually or through anyone outside our Family who was close to him and actually We heard mostly from whoever he was opportuned to bless.
I saw Dad go out of his way even at his Old age to bear & carry some people's burdens & pains with them in their time of pain & for whatever reason,one of them painfully drifted off from dad & he came to My house & discussed with Me about it.THANK GOD,HE was able to forgive before HE departed to meet HIS MASTER,MAKER AND SAVIOUR. No wonder,he so loved singing," Kosogbon to le da,kosi wa to le wu,kosan to le gba,to le fi te'aye lorun o.
May FATHER Abraham graciously be empowered to shower you My Dear Dad Noah Bankole Oyalade with all the LOVE & HEAVENLY BLESSINGS of a Faithful Servant who did exceptionally splendidly when on Earth. You too might be seeing Me,I am terribly missing you Beloved Old Man( Dad). Greetings to all loved Ones who made it there too like you Dad. Fondly remembered by Leah Oyelowo.......

O death where is the Victory. I keep wondering how those who are without parent(s) whom they loved or who loved them are coping through Life.
My Old Man would have called & still texted Me to pray & wish My Family,A happy new month. You were such a caring and kind and Godly dad. Even when you weren't obliged to do some things,you still did them in love for your GOD and people. I think since your death,I have overlooked at your pics as if I was going to later write an examination based on what I saw in the pix.Anytime I jokingly said,dad you're old don't worry,maybe if I said something & you didn't hear well or your attention wasn't there & I said it,Dad will lift a finger towards Me like a child & say,take your time or don't say that again,am a young boy. I have never met anyone who loved peace like you. THANK GOD you're in a place of eternal peace & joys & rejoicing,cause of the Fear of GOD you had and becos of the goodness of your heart. I am missing you so much Dad. HEAVEN we are told & have read is a Wonderful place. You sure deserve it as your final resting home.Greet GOD ALMIGHTY YAHWEH and JESUS and Father Abraham for Me. Oh daddy,I miss you,but am happy you have no more worries,or lack or wants or pains again. Emi na Ni again Leah your daughter.Sun re Omo Balogun who was so gentle( smile)!

I am missing Dad in a way only GOD can understand.You're not at home to welcome Me and smile & say sometimes, "When did you come in"? Someone who called Me to greet Me on your death from Lagos,abt a week & some days ago,I also called to greet this morning too,as just day B4 ystrdy,he lost his father too. He joked and said We are same in d same parental group now. I knew what he meant and sadly said,No my own Dad is here & honestly quick tears just dripped down. I am just wondering if I will heal at heart over your sudden death Daddy. Faith just saw Me crying silently and said Mummy! I said,Am just missing My Daddy. No one who feared GOD ever met you in your Life Time and journeyed with you,that isn't missing you Sweet,gentle One.
Omo Balogun,Bami Owon Sun re lailai o. I love you more in death and miss you BADLY. May your sleep be very peaceful IN JESUS NAME AMEN.
Tnx to all who have written and or told Us such wonderful things abt you. We love you all.Ayo le fi gba o AMIN

*TRIBUTE TO A LOVING "TWIN BROTHER" AND BOSSOM FRIEND: ENGR. NOAH BANKOLE OYALADE.*

It was a sad moment for me when the news of Engr. Noah Bankole Oyalade was broken to me on my recuperating bed exactly a month today 28th May, 2021. I am writing this on the 28th of June, 2021 just as I'm recovering my strength. "Noah was a bossom friend, my confidant and benefactor.
Well, alot of things can be said about us as we grew, lived together for several years in Jos and went to the same secondary school in Plateau State at Kuru.
Our life's were inseparable and we moved about like twins at the school and also always when on holiday vacation in Jos living together like twins brothers with many things in common.
Well it is sad that we were finally separated by his death leaving me to continue with the race we started together. God knows best. "Sun re o Noah" in the bossom of our Lord Jesus Christ till we meet to part no more.
Adieu....Adieu!!!!!!

Grandpa ilorin as we fondly called, you would always remember our birthdate days up in ur memory. The man who cares for his own , being is a representation of the best ; a man who had the best relationship with God and man, you really left a good legacy for us all to live by.You really took care or should i say give birth to a woman that is the best LATE MRS RUTH OLADEJI . You said you would be coming to our house, but we didnt see you buy heard a sad declaration that you were gone to the other part of the world, a day after my grandfather rememberance . You gave me bithdate gift and would pray for us, saying you would come and teach me Mathematics but all i heard was your demise . I indeed love you but God loves you more . ADIEU GRANDPAPA OYALADE.

Daddy, as I fondly called you, I did not have the inkling that the conversation I had with you a day to your demise was a way of bidding me goodnight till we meet to part no more at Jesus' feet. Though, your in law, you took me as your first son and a friend. We discussed on various subjects, ranging from ministry, career, business to family and politics. Oh! How the entire family of Oladeji will greatly miss your gentle fatherly voice and tender care. Your care over us was beyond comprehension. You never missed any of our birthdays as you normally called to shower blessings on each of us. Whenever there was storm, without being told, you were already aware, and always gave assurance of standing by us in prayers. You will surely be missed by Marvellous, Oyinda and others. You promised to come and spend a week or two with us after the demise of your daughter, Ruth Adetola. Daddy rest on until the resurrection morning.

TRIBUTE TO MY FATHER-IN-LAW (ENGR. NOAH BANKOLE OYALADE).

Daddy was an amazing father-in-law. He sacrificed for so many people and his love for others cannot be quantified.
He loved God and it reflected in his priorities. Thank you for the good memories.
Good night N.B.

Baba Noah Oyalade was a father, adviser, encourager and friend to me as much as he was a friend to my dad (I couldn’t tell him that Daddy Oyalade has gone ahead of him). I became very close to daddy Oyalade when we were both worshipping at United English Baptist Church (UEBC), Kaduna. He was an epitome of humility; he was kind and exuded confidence. He looked down on no one and can make friends even with children. Baba played with us in spite of his busy schedule as MMU National President, etc. As I grew up, I realized we have in common the E.G. Kolawole’s family as close family friend and; it further knitted us. Baba Oyalade later put on the garment of an adviser, he had been a strong encourager to me in my current employment at Bowen University. Daddy Oyalade, with you, there was never a dull moment for your character was infectious; it can never be good night rather it’s good morning! You will be remembered by what you’ve done! Sleep on in your Lord’s boson till the resurrection morning. You will be greatly missed! Your life will daily be celebrated by those you left behind. ‘E kaaro Baba Noah Oyalade.’

I THANK GOD. Dad couldn't have lived forever. We loved each other very much,but GOD loved him most.
I go to Dad's house and he's not there to tell him,how My day had been.He's not there to tell Me,his plenty stories in My just not seeing him in one day alone perhaps (I smile).
I would sit so close to him,or normally put My own chair near him and all anyother person in d sitting room will be hearing,are just My laughter's and seeing dad's smile. Dad was the one saying things to make Me laugh but he would just smile. He and mum agreed on one thing, Baba Ebenezer Obey's songs.If dad sang a part,mum wld join & I'd just smile at them.
My people if you have a good parent,abegi cherish them o,before a surprise happens. Ask them tough questions,like where would you like to be buried? Snap happy memorable pics with them.Listen to them. Old people love attention and love alot.And incase any of you My "parents" is reading this,try to be on a good page with your children and especially love well & try not to hide anything from the love you love the most. You were such a gentle man Dad.As for Me,I wld love you to be a little tougher if there was another privilege to come to this world again. I would just take dad's tomtom sweets even if I wldn't take or lick them.You know how friends behave,that's how We behaved. Everyday since you passed on,I just freely cry.I miss you beyond words.You were a very good man.Pls pray for Me,it's been hard not seeing you and playing with you.Even mum just recently made fun of Me,that My gisting and talking friend,Is gone. My love for you,is titi lailai. You never stopped loving your mother and now I can understand better. I know you're always reading My thots. Ok bye Dad,Adieu My Father and Bestie.Love you Loads Baba Mi owon.

Do you see how we mortals make plans,but GOD ALMIGHTY YAHWEH sure has THE FINAL say,hum. I was unusually looking forward to this years Fathers Day,just for two reasons,1,To celebrate My dad 2,I already had & knew what I wanted to post to celebrate the many strong women who are now turned men( Fathers) in various Families for roles of Fathers played. But you see.... Thanks Yemi for your sincere tribute,I felt the sincerity in all you wrote & I cried well reading through. With time I got to know Daddy has many many many children. Do you know that dad treated us all with same Love? I wish to read someone's tribute and if not,no wahala. I wish to read Bimbo's tribute.She is one daughter, Dad never ever hid his love for. We saw Dad ystrdy,it was a fresh crying day again ystrdy morning. It is well. Sleeping is something,as I just wish Daddy was still alive or that someone came to tell Me down,he had little more time to live. Dad told Me to bring him fried fish and moimoi,he told Me this the Wednesday before he passed on. On Thursday he went out,even to the hospital for check up.On Friday,very early in d morning,mum asked if I could come make him lunch and I said,I will,cos she was to attend late Baba Ande's burial. Just some few minutes later,mum called to say,Ma bo nisin. Kai thank GOD,GOD SPIRIT held Me well,cos I instantly knew something was wrong,for it to have been mum calling Me. I was damn confused & fearful,as I walked up & down,up and down,uptil My daughter shouted and said,"Mum please stop". I knew mum's call had something to do with My dad & behold,I was so right. When I returned home that evening TiKristi ran to meet Me by the gate and he asked,"Mum is it true? I mean Grandpa". As I said yes,he ran off inside the house crying.I have heard of young children who had special bounds with Dad,that their parents had to pray and specially sit them down to tell them of Dad's passing.Two in ilorin & mum too knows they loved dad( they are undergraduates) and one in Akure.They might be more though. Whenever any child was angry with dad & he just effortlessly said,"Am sorry please forgive Me" I just used to wonder,cause all dad wanted was peace in the home. My Dad sure ran a good race of Life,he fought well and conquered gallantly. Omo Balogun,I miss you beyond words.I hope the pains of your sudden departure,will reduce I pray but I know you wldn't ever be forgotten Bami owon. You did well Sir. You touched every Life GOD passed through you very positively. Dad on Earth today is Fathers Day o, what's the menu in Heaven today for FATHERS DAY??? Lol. Greetings to Dad Laka Dad Adebowale,Dad Alabi,Dad Fatosin, Dad Suberu & other good dad's in Heaven. I am reluctant to stand up and check for the list of names you wrote of your departed loved ones,even an igbo Pst's name is there too. Am sure Heaven is merrier with My Dad joining his very funny friends and bothers. We pray for longer lives for your two bossom friends left IJN AMEN. The first is Dad Odedokun,Hum we fondly call Dad O,and Dad Okikiade who hasn't taken your departure well at all. Please LORD help Me sleep small too now o. It's 2:54a.m. Happy Father's Day,all living fathers( All fathers alive) Ire!!!

Dearest daddy, I have remained in painful denial and still can't string the words together. I stare into space and wonder if there's ever going to be a time when the pain in my heart would ease?
It won't be out of place to say that you knew me before I knew you. You were there from the start, a very close buddy to my dad. You called me Opeyemi, a name I later grew to be fond of because of you. You' d sing to me and I'd dance and you'd take me in your warm embrace and kiss me with a reassuring smile. You were my personal photographer and captured all the moments of my birthday celebration in a beautiful album. You never missed out on any birthday or celebration. You were my go to person for any solution. I wondered if you never got tired of listening; you always had a smile, always profered a solution and if there was a time I was in doubt, you'd ask me to give it sometime and you'd get back to me. A fine gentleman, a handsome one at that, aguntaso lo himself. You carried yourself with so much grace and charisma. You made me love native outfits, they looked so good on you. I remember teasing you about being stylish and you'd cross your legs and laugh heartily.
You loved God and served him. I watched you take the salute as the National MMU president and I beamed with pride. I told everyone that cared to listen that the handsome man in uniform taking the salute was my dad, we sang the hymn The king's business together and I took those words to heart. You were indeed a friend, I have searched for the definition of true friendship and brotherhood and I can only summarize as what you shared with my dad, daddy Laka and daddy Alabi. You all ate from same dishes, slept on same beddings and travelled together and went to same church you never missed an opportunity to be together, all 4 of you. You were the mediator and peace broker, you had a way with them all and knew how to sort everyone. The jokes were always rib cracking and the laughter intoxicating.
It broke my heart when my daddy went to be with the lord in September 2020, my heart broke Futher when I saw you because I wasn't sure how you'd cope with the loss. You said to me; Opeyemi, my beloved daughter, I have one mission here, bury my brother and go home to mourn my loss, I am not happy but first you all and mama Ronke your mother must be fine. You indeed ensured that it was a smooth ride and you sat by the graveside all alone in deep thought. You promised to be there but cautioned that time may not be long. I remember all our talks, I remember your counsel, I remember our last hug and kiss, I remember the promises, though you didn't wait for it all, I remember you daily.
I remain thankful to God for the gift of you, you were a full options package, limited edition, the once in a lifetime kind of person and I'd treasure the memories.
Indeed great men lived and walked the earth, I am privileged to have been yours, loved and taught of you.
I love you daddy( you never missed an opportunity to say you love me), I know you have to rest and you must be glad to reunite with your brethren.
Salute my daddy, please tell him that it doesn't get easy but I still try and I miss him alot.
Rest easy daddy, you sure did run a good race.
Painfully Missed, Forever loved.
Your daughter,
Opeyemi Adebowale

Daddy Oyalade, as we fondly called him was an extraordinary individual who loved people so dearly. When we were kids, he visited us Zaria on many occasions, as he was a close relative of my dad. Whenever he arrived, he would go into our compound and help himself to some fruits before coming to knock on the door. He always felt at home. He has a free spirit, was very loving, kind and generous in so many ways. We were always happy when he came around, as we would laugh a lot and he would bless us with money when he was leaving. 

May the Lord comfort us all. You are greatly missed and the lovely memories we have of you sir, will forever remain in our hearts.

Daddy Kaduna, as he was fondly called was a part of our lives in more ways than we can list. He remembered our birthdays, our sad days, our anniversaries and always said a prayer at the end of a phone call. His company was quite interesting and enriching. He was a humble father who showered us with Christ-like mentoring, kindness and wisdom. He was a dependable encourager and discipler. We really miss his friendship, his calls and WhatsApp chats to say, "I love you, trust in God." So long to God's General.

Hearing about the demise of Uncle Oyalade came with sadness but also joy, sad to loss someone we all knew and loved so dearly. but also thanking God for a life well spent. Uncle Oyalade was one of my Dad's closest friends, who would come to our house and him and my dad always had their jokes but what was special was his ever happy face and an infectious laugh when him and my Dad start their story!! He also played a very special role during our father's funeral and also supported us all with his fatherly love and advise.
Uncle will be greatly missed by me, my siblings and our mum.
To the family, we are with you and pray God to give you all the strength to bear this loss.

May His Soul Rest In Perfect Peace.

Baba Noah Bankole Oyalade is known to be caring. My contact with him affirmed the fact that Baba has the interest of people at heart. I believe his departure is heaven's gain. I pray God upholds and comfort the family, church and all in Jesus name, Amen.

Anyone can be a father but it takes someone special to be a dad and that's why Daddy Oyalade was a "father of fathers".

Daddy lived a life of love and giving. He gave of himself whenever, wherever and however he could. He strove continually for peace with all men and this was demonstrated by his activities and associations he belonged to.
You touched our lives by being a father, prayer support, adviser, counsellor and friend. You were indeed a blessing and an instrument God used to enrich lives of too many to count.

Daddy was selfless and always puts others ahead of himself, he lived a Christ like life indeed. His impact on lives will remain long in our memories.
It was a privilege to be on earth at the same time as you were.
We know you are sitting at the right hand of our Lord Jesus with smiles on your face.

Till we meet again on that beautiful morning when the trumpet sounds and we shall be together with Jesus Christ never to part again.

We love you daddy.

Adieu
