Prof Ade Adefuye To Be Buried Sept 18 by Roommaster1(m): 11:55pm On Sep 10, 2015 |
The family of late
Professor Adebowale
Ibidapo Adefuye,
former Nigerian
ambassador to the
United States of
America, who died on
Thursday, August 27,
has announced the
burial arrangements.
According to the burial
programme signed by
Mr. Babatunde Adefuye
on behalf of the family,
there will be a Christian
wake keeping on
September 17 at
Harbour Point, 4 Wilmot
Point Road, off Ahmadu
Bello Way, Victoria
Island, Lagos, by 5p.m.
The funeral service will
hold the following day
at Christ Church
Cathedral, Marina Lagos
at 10a.m., while
interment follows
immediately at Ikoyi
Vault and Gardens.
The family, in a eulogy,
said: “Ambassador
Adefuye’s life and living
were akin to that of
the psalmist who was
inspired in one of his
many songs to say
‘The lines are fallen
unto me in pleasant
places; yea, I have a
goodly heritage’.
“Like a man with a truly
godly heritage, our late
son, husband, father,
brother, uncle and
cousin lived his life very
much as a practical
Christian in constant
acknowledgement of
his Creator, in
passionate and
unstinting service to
mankind and the
promotion of and
support to great
causes, seeking always
to make the world a
better place. He was an
exemplar in virtues.
“And so consoled by his
good works and the
Grace of God upon us,
we reach out,
respectfully, to you to
join us as we use this
opportunity of his rites
of passage to
appreciate and
celebrate God for the
beautiful life he lived
and to thank God for
making us a part of
him.”
