He makes me laugh like no other. The minute we sight ourselves, we begin to crack jokes and make each other laugh. My father, my sister and I are a great team. The three of us draw surprising stares from our neighbours when we use to sit on the balcony and make ourselves laugh. My father makes words like "aforesaid" sound like aforsay and we all had to consult the dictionary when he was arguing that the word "afor" is in the dictionary as the word "afor" happens to be part of the olden days mgbeke name grandma gave him. He is so very sweet and I love him much. 5 Likes |

My father, Mr Adebajo A.A himself, Ijoba fondly calld my his frds or Goverment or Baba ijebu nt becos he is stingy but becos he is a native of Omo ljebu. I dnt knw hw to describe you but i v dis to say he is loving, sweet , kind, generous( i remberd wen u paid for 2 of my frds dat couldnt afford GCE fee). Ready at any time to give his last kobo to us. At my age my sweet dad wil stil chop remain 4 me. He v good retentive memory, intelligent(always helpin me wit my assignment during my undergraduate days). Opeoluwa, anytime he calls that my special name i knw sumtin good is on my way. He dnt wnt me to b behind or tink or get disturb dat is y u paid 4 my Master dat im doin nw. Though u v retired wen i was just 10yrs old. U wantd d 3 of us to b sum1 in life we'l definitely get there. Always doing vigil praying 4 us. U celebratd ur 75th bday last mth. God pls grant him more yrs in good health. He is too nice, God bless us while he is stil alive not after he is died. Dad, i knw u r nt hapy 4 sumtim nw but not my fault i'l stil b dat Mrs u wantd very soon by God grace, u wont die nw or soon cos u n mum wil carry my babies. U tried dad. I love u in a trillion times, i love u 2 Mamaniyan i love my family. This thread makes me cry, infact so sad. 10 Likes 1 Share |

I came to check the updates on this thread and almost felt bad that I kept quiet on my mother as if I don't love her too. Poster you should have asked about father and mother because the two go together. I love my mother too in a deeper way even when I have a special bond with my father and my sister. My mother of blessed memory is what I am today. She built me up, taught me modesty. She is a good woman, very industrious. My mother never worked for anybody in all her life, she always have her own thing doing for herself even when she was as young as 14/15 years old, thinking of that makes me ashamed of myself that I am working for others.(Now let me not be hard on myself---Lol). The epitome of the virtuous woman of the bible. She was priceless, can do great things with her hands, was highly reverred among her peers for her independence and hard work. Ain't no woman like my mama. She was a princess yet so humble that when she passed away the neighbours were amazed to see the name "Princess" appended on the name of such an unpretentious woman and it was after her death that I got to understand that I hold the title of a princess too unlike my cousins that have been swagging away over it all and feeling cool while growing up, she could not be swayed/bothered with title nor royalty. Her coming from a royal family was never given such importance for us her children to understand the gravity of that. She was even a thousand times more beautiful things that describing may bring tears to my eyes. Now how do one relegate a mother that priceless to the background and talk about the father alone? Bear with me poster, I have to appreciate the two. 2 Likes |

My papa was a hard nut to crack, ströng, strict yet loving and fun to be with. You were my advicer and mentor. Forgive me for not understanding u when u were HERE! I was ur last child out of ten kids, so u can imagine the age difference, u talk in 60ties and i reply in 90ties. I missed u so much- that i cried last tuesday in my office, wished u were here to enjoy ur labour. When u died my life chattered and i experienced a different world filled with unimagineable,a world apart from what it used to be! it wasn't an easy struggle and path but I give God all the glory for he has shown me mercy, kindness, and has being a father to me since then. I can finally say RIP PAPA till we meet to part no more. 1 Like |

He was solid, reliable and believed in true marriage! He took his wife's family as his own and made sure EVERYONE was well taken care of! He loved his children to peices, even though we were mostly girls in a world dominated by men! He NEVER let anybody harrass or talk down on his daughters. He was a true champion and understood the true importance of family! |

Though my father is late i can never for get him for a lot of things. He is selfless and sacrificial, he lived for people both families and people that are not his family. He is also full of wisdom, this he demonstrated in all that he did when alive. He also defended the helpless when the need arose to do that. He is also a man that has the heart for God and very prayerful. I will always have him close to my heart. I miss him so much that i still feel the vacuum. I love you dad. |
