I want to first of all extend my gratitude to all the relatives, friends and attendees, who have shown up today to honour this great man, Sunny Ogunfadebo, a person we all have come to love and cherish for many years.
The number of people who have shown up to pay their last respect is only a testimony to the lives he (Sunny) personally touched. All of us have known him in a variety of role, father, husband, uncle, cousin, mentor and great friend.
I have been privileged to know him as a great friend for many years, he is very honest, respectful, and a complete gentle man, he is a man who is very peaceful within himself and always want peace among his friends. For all the years I have known Sunny, I have never seen him argue unnecessarily or quarrel with a friend, instead, he will hold his peace or walk away. I knew Sunny through Alhaji Babatunde Yinusa popularly known as double and Mr Adebayo Adio King, both of them are good people as well and they can confirm to this testimony on this great athlete.
On this note, I pray to God almighty to give the family the fortitude to bear the loss and grant Sunny Ogunfadebo eternal rest.
