His Eminence Shaykh Yahya Olorunoshebi Oshoala Ajagbemokeferi As-Samadaani, Chief Imam of the most gigantic community mosque (Oriwu Central Mosque, Ikorodu Garage Round About, Ikorodu) in Ikorodu Division and second in Lagos clocks 71.

The ink of the pen of a scholar is holier than the blood of a martyr. Knowledge is power, ditto power is knowledge. Depositing valuable knowledge in millions is far beyond dying for a course as knowledge will remain and utilized for centuries.

Whoop, a dynamic scholar of varying school of thoughts, a Shaykh with unmatched wisdom, a stand out Chief Imam, a gallant Ameer, a fulfilled teacher, a Principal of unequalled achievements, a director of education, retired but not tired, a paragon cum paradigm of leadership is 71.

He is one man who continues to inspire millions of lives; inspiring as well as exemplifying in charity, justice, social justice, coexistence, equality, human and animal welfarism, human right, health, education, love of his town, state and Nigeria.

His lifestyle is simple and in consonant with the Sunnah of our noble being, Prophet Muhammad (SAW); talk softly, walk humbly, worship dedicatedly, sacrifice regularly, spend generously, eat sensibly, earn honestly, dress properly, interact politely, behave decently and truthfully, act in fairness and with the fear of Allah....

A pious leader, worthy leader, leader of leader, leader that outshines leader, leader that swallows leader, leader leading in humility, noble leader, charismatic leader, without mincing words, everything is embedded in him.

O Allah! I seek for him the best affair, the best supplications, the best success, the best deed, the best reward, the best life, the best of everything and the best of Al-Janah.

O Allah! Let him enjoy his hearings, sights, powers and all his body parts throughout his life span and make it an heritage afterwards.

O Allah! Grant him longevity, sound health and mind, blessings, wealth, mercy, grace, istijabah, and everything needed to continue his ordinance, O Most Merciful, The Lord of all the worlds.
