“Dad’s life was that decorated with positive courage, philanthropy, and selfless disposition.
“In many organisations, that ‘Dad’ found himself he was either appointed or elected the helmsman or Treasurer, due to his high level and vouched honesty, and transparency, laced with accountability.
The statement further read:
“In political, Religious, and other Social organisations, he was the SPINDLE.
“As he bows out, we are bold to say that we’ve been thoroughly tutored to live among others but to be independent people whose ways must remain unblemished no matter the threatening arrows.
“For sure! We will keep the flames on!
ADIEU, PAPA.
