Your laziness is the problem.

This man lived, saw and really achieved his purpose on earth.

Growing up, we were all in awe of his family and how they made it academically.

Adieu sir.

Rest well pa dafinone

RIP, Great one.

RIP to Sen. Dafinone. He was a major contributor to the Urhobo Progress Union and his genuine concern for the development of his homeland is rivalled only by a few others.

His family is notable for having quite a number of accountants. He also has a large swathe of land in the Aghalokpe/Amukpe axis. The land he has is enough to build an entire city. He was a strong rubber plantation mogul and businessman.

Tódè tè dèfá r'akpo, osè.

Look at his face.

Can a human being be this ugly?

God forbid.

I hope none of his daughters look anything like him because if they did, then na real wahala for them.

Senator Dafinone a great man Rlp

Rest in Peace. Oseh Ogwere 1 of Okpe Kingdom.

Hmmm finally.

Worked for his company for some years. Difficult people to work with I must say.

Dafinone is good though. Still coming to the office at his old age.
