Adeniyi Akanji, omo Adeniji, your death came as a shock, Painful, misery, and inevitable that no one can question God about what happened and how it happened and why.
I never believe you will go just like that without saying goodbye. Traveling to Nigeria for Christmas is always what love to do and always excited about, death just snatched away without enjoying what you went there to do, but God knows why.
I never believed that just a little stress would take you unaware and away forever from this earth. You are a strong man and a good fighter, even when you think you will not survive,
God help you, and you made it through.
We are all going home where we belong to, but your exit takes me unaware and shock.
Baba Ife that is the name I fondly called you
And your response is always mama Ijero
You are a kind man and a loving husband with a good heart
Though your smile is gone forever
and your hand I cannot ever touch again like before
I still have so many memories of
the lessons of kindness and love you taught me
Of the one, I loved so much.
Your memory is now my memento
And the good things in life you’ve helped me to see;
Which with I’ll never part.
Linger as lasting gifts that comfort and will sustain,
I hope I will see you again like common saying when I journey to that peaceful shore
Even though we never say goodbye, but I wish you can hear me
How I wish God can give you a second chance
because you still have a lot of your dream to achieve
But I remember we are all strangers on this earth, and heaven is our home, but your exit has created a vacuum that no one can ever fill in the family. You always make sure all the families are united in love and as on fold in Christ.
Many will miss your long hour phone calls
and text messages that flow around all day all night
God has you in His keeping
But I have you in my heart.
Sadly, I missed you but never forgotten.
Get a peace rest my darling and sleep on till we meet again.
Titilayo
