Rest Peacefully Engr Aderopo Oguntimehin |
Apparently sorrowful by grief and broken hearts, family and friends, youths and supporters as well as the general public were extremely soaked in tears and mourning when the remains of Engr Aderopo Oguntimehin was brought home to be interred from Lagos where he breathed his last last Friday.
At Our Saviour's Anglican Church,Emure-Ile where Reverend Oshide briefly performed funeral Service to honour the departed ,he challenged all to take solace in God's comfort as the only true comforter. " Aderopo is gone,you all testify to it here. Surely he has fulfilled his destiny. Ours is to rededicate our lives and be more committed to our Creator. This is the ultimate sacrifice.

"Stressing further Oshide enjoyed his family members , friends and well-wishers as well as the entire community now suffering from the huge loss of a legend to find ways to support his bereaved wife and children trusting that God Almighty shall give them as well as her aged mother and siblings and the entire community the required fortitude to bear the irreparable monumental loss.
At the cemetery just like the grief was great and devastating , torrents of painful tears continually flowed as the atmosphere was electrified with pains, anguish and wailing for the loved ,the lost and the departed . This exercise as it's inevitable assuredly ended and closed the beautiful chapter of Aderopo's ethereal sojourn..

The youth of the community and the school mates of the departed led by Hon. Nasirudeen I. Boboye-Ijawoye later paid a solidarity visit to his family as they prayed for them and the entire kingdom over the ugly and unfortunate calamity.It was another sorrowful phase for all as tears rented the air considering the conspicuous and irreplaceable absence of Aderopo among his contemporaries.
In the kingdom, the anguish and devastation ocassioned by this sudden death as well as the catastrophes are still in the air. As observed by all , we all must remember the kingdom in our daily devotions and supplications to our Maker.

As it is, Emure-Ile community as a people must come together to intercede for the kingdom. This is the general appeal to the Elemure of Emure-Ile ,HRM, Oba Simeon Adedubaje-Adeyefa (I) JP and his inner Council and Asiwaju Segun Ojo who now presides over the affairs of Emure-Ile Development Council among other critical stakeholders. This is the new chapter that this mourning period has obviously re-choed.

Abejoye Media gathered however from impeccable sources within the family that Aderopo died as a result of grave health challenges of liver hypethatis with apparent suspicion as he did not have previous clinical history of terminal ailments. Nevertheless ,the harm has been done, and little can be done now that the damage control is out of hand.
As it's,every son and daughter of the kingdom are therefore enjoined to always go for medical check-up and take proper care of their individual health and those of their family members by noting with serious concerns me the cord of brotherhood among the inhabitants of the ancient town.

According to the youth leader, Comr. Ogunmolasuyi Olusola Edward, he painfully submitted," This death is huge and the devastation is shocking. A great star has fallen, and a future of the community is cut down in his prime. This is unfortunate." He however admonished the entire youths of the community to remain calm while assuring them that henceforth the cord of brotherhood among them would be toughened considering the unfortunate and sudden loss of one of their brightest stars.
Surely, the death of Aderopo is an eclipse , and shall be difficult to redeem. This position is confirmed by the torrents of tributes that awash all the community platforms and other social media channels. In fact, it's extremely disheartening and heartbreaking!

Extremely painful and challenging , Mr Dare Oguntimehin and Mrs Florence Nee Oguntimehin , late Aderopo's younger brother and elder sister respectively were heavily heartbroken as they appreciated the youths for their solidarity support and visit and their prayers over the unfortunate circumstance.
