I remember you as a jolly fun fellow Roju.....Rest in peace.

Roju,

Indeed, its so hard to say good bye to yesterday but how do we even say good bye to yesterday?

It was so hard seeing you buried but as time may try to heal, your memories will forever remain.   

We miss you Roju.

Seun.


 

 

Ma Bro...memories of you dates back to our days in FEGO. I suppose for everything there is a time and season...A time to be born and a time to die. Sad as it is, your time came howbeit too early...too soon. My heart-felt condolence goes to your wife and kids, your parents and siblings.

Esho Baba, you lived a good and fulfilling life and I choose to celebrate that! Rest in PEACE Ma Friend... 

I have to summon all the courage and strength to do this. I ran away for 3months since you left us and can't run any longer. I am doing this with a very heavy heart.

It is so sad that you had to leave us. When I heard you were on board the ill fated Dana airline around 5pm on Sunday, June 3rd,  2012, the first thing I shouted and thought of was that you could have missed your flight nooowwwwwww. How can you be on board? What will I say to Topsy? I wished you just didn't board that particular flight. I wishe something just happened and you missed that flight.  Hmmmmm. This was one of the wishes in my life that never came true. Up till today, its still like a horror movie which has refused to end. Its still a rude shock.

3 months gone and I have not been able to get over the this shock,and even sight and sound of a plane.

I really thank God for the life you lived. Your passing away thought me some lessons about life. Which includes amongst others: living every second of my life as if its d last. Also, living life to the fullest and that I have started by the grace of God with my boy, my one and only love Niffy boi.

I thank God for the grace and strength given to Temitope, Kabiyesi, Olori, your siblings, and other family members and friends since you left us. Its not been easy @ allllllll but we can do nothing but to trust God and have hope like believers.

I used to admire the kinda husband you were that will allow his wife to still keep her numerous friends close to her even after marriage. Your home was open to everyone. Not so many men will do that. You and Topsy were the reason I know surulere well.

I admired how you picked your wife from a young, tender, naive age and cared so soooo much for her. Its always been Roju Roju Roju for so many years. Topsy's first and only love.

You were a fun loving husband and father. Always taking the kids out. You dropped and picked her from the office. I always harass Topsy about driving and wonder if she ever knows how to drive. Because I fell victim of being Topsy's "driver" on few occasions when you were not around.

I remember how I used to ask Topsy about the boyz , the older (referring to you Roju) and the smaller ones (d kids). Now its not so easy for me to ask about the boyz just referring to the kids only without you Roju

My Niffy boi remembers you so so well for the gift u gave him 2011 Christmas. He even saw the burial programme after u were laid to rest (that has your pics all over) and screamed "mummy, see Haniel's daddy. Where did you get this book from?

You were the only birthday mate I ever knew and had contact with asides Nnamdi Azikwe(who I dunno @ all). I will miss the fact that I had a mate and our exchange of calls/ messages on November 16 of every year since I met you 8years ago. I really dunno now if that day will be meaningless cos u will always be on my mind. Its going to be a mixed feeling probably.

Words cannot express how my friend Temitope and the boyz (Hanny and Jay bobo) misses so sooooo much. Jaybobo keeps calling daddy even on the morning of 30th August 2012 when you were buried. As if he knew something was going on. Probably, he knew but couldnt express himself. Haniel will not stop asking after his daddy. Your picture was on the couch when we got home from Ikoyi vault that afternoon after the burial and he screamed with all excitement " my daddy, my daddy'.

Wondering how youngie is going to cope keeps bringing tears to my eyes. dont know how i can help to fill that vacuum you left behind. I believe firmly in God and I trust in God for them. HE is a faithful God and will continue to strengthen them.

I am happy and I will continually thank God your body was found and you got a befitting burial.
Wish you saw the ManU jersey wif RB4L ur kids and ur nephews and niece wore in your honour. You would have loved it so much.

We love you but God loves you most. Continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord.

Adieu my birthday mate, RB4L

David,

You will be missed by all. May the good Lord in his infinite mercies grant your wife and the family the heart to bear this great loss and may his protecting and guiding hands continue to rest upon your wife and the Kids. It is WELL.

Rojeje,

You will always remain on my mind, i love you bro.

Can't help thinking about you anytime i drive past Beckton or when i remember the Stratford days at Zarzar's bar and the day you stood up for me when some winch yabbed me behind my back and you scattered her with abuses and ended with the words "You don't mess with my homeboy!!!" I only wish i could stand up for you like you did, there wasn't enough time for that.

Only a day left now, i didn't want to come here because i couldn't come to terms with your passing away but i know you're in the bossom of the lord now.

Miss you so much, sleep well dawg.

DeeWon Da Ninja.

Roja,
This is the one time in my life that i question life knowing i will get no answers. Bro my heart is crushed! Words cannot describe. Till we meet at journeys end. RIP!!!

2 months today...i havent had enough courage to visit this site but finally mustered some after talking to tope this morning. I never would forgive myself if i did not leave a few words...

Roju, you were a true prince, one in an ever shining armour...your contageous laughter,your very positive energy, your charisma, you had the biggest heart..those are attributes of you i could never forget.
You were such a fun person! there was no dull moment when you were around.
Your home was always open to us all..I called it the 'palace' because it was such a happy place and you always made sure we were comfortable.

I still hear your voice calling out 'ibiyemitowoooju' in that sing-song manner.

I remember when Tope and the rest of us used to meet you back in those days and we'ld pig on the laid out buffet at Bjay's till we were sick and laugh so hard till our stomachs hurt... or how we used to trick those people at amala shitta and made a sharp getaway..or in later years, the quick chats outside of zenith bank when you dropped tope off each morning...and so much more, too many! 
So many fun memories through Ife to becoming adults. Gosh! How i miss you already.

You and tope were a perfect pair, you were 1&2, 3&4, 5&6... one was incomplete without the other, your love for each other knew no end. 
I am happy and encouraged at tope's strength so far... she surprises me daily.  Be sure i will never be far from them, we'll pull through together and with God.
 
Though your life was rudely cut short, you still touched the lives of so many.. you always had the right words and always quick to give advice. 
You were an achiever and with you there was no 'cant'! You always gave the right push.

You have left shoes too big to be filled. Your memories will linger on and will stay alive till we meet again.

Sleep well brother!
