When I was a little boy, I used to gaze at your pics in one of my aunties house and wondered why and how a young boy of your age would be wearing a military attire. That was the point at which you induced in me the interest to join the army. It was joy overflow to later learn that you were a close relative.
Over the years, you inspired me with every bit of your personality and I always just found it favourable and exciting to be anywhere you are.
No one, I mean no one can describe how great and pure my respect and admiration for all you stood for was in my heart and even how sad and devastated I feel since the day your death created an indescribable emptiness in me.
I have since the day of your departure come to realise that good people aren't around for long cos like a comet blazing across the evening sky...you departed just too soon without a goodbye.
I remember your calls, advice and aid during the covid lockdown era and also when my father passed away. I also remember the warnings you gave me and how u wanted me to be known and perceived. Your smiles and voice were always reassuring and comfy.
I know without a doubt that the thoughts of your wife, daughter, siblings and your precious mother ran across your mind before the plane crashed.
I also know that your soul is resting and being comforted after a life of selfless service to your country and family.
I and every member of my household will miss you and would never forget you, the general who was a friend to all.
Brother tunji, if God Almighty gives me another son, I'll name him Olatunji Lukmon so that anywhere I am ,so will a person called by your name be beside me.
I love and miss you sir, say me well to my late father, Agboola Francis Amona (the man who told me to mirror you in all I do)
From your cousin who loves you more than a brother should.
Amona Segun
