Met you my 1st semester at the uni, we were not friends at first sight we became friends over the time. Our friendship was magical... no 1 knew what we were except us. You became my confidant, gist partner, pals, Gs..... we talked bout everything and everyone. You was incredible....

I spoke with you before you boaredthe dana flight. I remember telling you to buy me "kilishi"from abj and you said you will but you will disfriend me cos my friendship is too expensive. I told you i will wait for you at the airport cos that is where i work.

After my shift for that day, I waited for you to arrive...but instead of you coming to us, you preferred the Angle....Micheal and Gabriel came for you. Who are we to question them.

Rest on my bestie....we love you but God loves you most.

I have been dreading writing on this website cos I'm still in disbelieve, jst got the courage dis morning. Got the news on sunday evening nd I was lost all thru d nite bt got up on monday morning to face my fears. I'm going to miss the laughs. I'm going to miss u die my frnd & broEven if it hurts the way it ended up bt u have left and indelible mark in my heart that will nvr be forgotten.

Play it sweet in heaven cos, Iknow that is where u are. I'm not crying and sad cos I feel sorry for u, I'm crying for me.

Sometimes I still dial ur num 08038599139 (knew it by heart) hoping I will hear the same familiar voice I have heard a million time "howfar na"

I still think about you like everyday , they say time heals on wounds but this one hard o....It still feels like a dream and I always hope that i willwake up from it and u walk into my house and say o boy make I mess u up for Fifa.  It hurts more during weekend cos u mormally call me up and say o boy I dey come ur house.
It seems like a major vaccum has been created in my heart.

We chatted on sunday and u said o boy i get hot gist for u. I said give me a hint and u said when u come into lag, u will pass by my house..but u never came.

I miss u so much bro...stay blessed and rest in d bossom of the Lord gentle giant, u knw I always use to tell u, u were big for nothing inshi man.

I will always remember u bro.

300 level Uni days, we had joked, played and gisted till late as usual. Before the silent hours of the night broke, i had a devils call. Not a voice. Not a ring. My attack came just as usual and i was left without my inhaler. You had always adviced i kept one right underneath my pillow but always took it as jokes. You came to my rescue by giving me yours after a struggling 10minutes in battle with Life. At the puffs i got better and woke to LIFE in your arms. That day you said i was strong and in your words "NA ME BE HIM SAVIOUR, HE JUST DEY LOOK LIKE POKRASH". We always joked about this afterwards but the lesson you taught me I have never forgotten and would always remember. That spot I’ve retained to keep my inhaler till date. You would greatly be remembered by me, and definitely all those you’ve come in contact with. Sure you would be smiling down now and saying everything would be Okay. You are my hero, you've been my saviour. Wish you were saved. Sleep on the RIGHT HAND OF THE LORD TILL WE MEET AGAIN.

Big man.....i remember this particular discussion when we had an arguement on who a colleague or a frnd is and in the bid to site an example, you said "Ronke, you are not my colleague, you are my friend". that has being ringing a bell in my head since sunday cos i have lost a friend. Lately, we had some intense discussions, some we finished and some yet to finish. its is heart breaking to know that we wld never finish those discussions.

Obiola, I miss YOU so badly, i miss your figure on the corridor knocking on the glass, i miss us having lunch together and you having to bully your way to sit just exactly on that particular seat, i miss you walking in at 7:15am and you would say "I woke up late today", i miss looking back from my seat to see the headset on you, i miss sm1 looking or buzzing me when that person passes, i miss you at the canteen every morning when its time for breakfast, i miss you call me "cutie", i miss a whole lot of things and i would miss all those other things we planned together. You said you were going to mark d date of my mums bday so u can be there, i would surely miss you there.

This was our last chat;

Words can certainly express how this office feels without having you there knowing you are not or leave or you havent resigned.

I console myself and say GOD knows best....He surely does and i pray he consoles your mum and every1 of us in the best way..

Forever in my heart BIG MAN.
