In remembrance of a father, leader, visionary and statesman…

The mark of a life well spent is not how long you live but how many lives you touch

The mark of a leader is not how many worship at your feet but how many you uplift through your vision, courage and tenacity

The mark of a statesman is not how many statues of you adorn public squares but how the public remember you in their hearts

Today again, I remember a worthy son of Oyo state, a visionary, a leader, a statesman….

Yours is not a life lost but a life transformed and flourishing in the legacies you have created.

Your physical presence with us though, short in our view leaves a lasting impact in our lives.

Signed

Hon. Tope-Oye Alamu

Oyo state GICC youth directorate.
