Date: 08-11-25

Aj?bi tó dáa kì í ?e ?ni tí a bá padà gbé síl?…”

Ajanaku tí w??n pé ní ?l??kùrú ti rìn l?…
The iroko has fallen,
The pillar of our household has travelled beyond the hills.
A man whose shadow gave shade,
A patriarch whose footsteps shaped destinies.

Baba wa, ?m? Adoide…
You walked this earth with truth on your tongue
And honesty in your hands.
You laboured with dignity,
You sowed with integrity,
You lived with a clean name that cannot be erased.

Oh! Death, you came like a silent visitor,
Yet you met a warrior resting.
You touched an elder whose journey was complete,
You carried a man who held no guile.

Awa Omo Baba n sunkú baba tí kò sunkú wa.
We mourn a father who never made us mourn.
We cry for the one who wiped our tears.
We bend our heads for the man who taught us to stand tall.

Ìgbà tí olókìkí ?l?, ??nà á bà j?ba…
When noble men depart, the path rearranges itself.
The wind sighs,
The trees bow,
The earth receives a jewel.
Heaven celebrates a saint of discipline and truth.

Baba Elekuru, ? ku irin àjò àyé,
Your staff now rests,
Your sandals now lie quiet,
Your voice echoes only in memory,
But your legacy marches on.

We remember your laughter—
Strong like the morning sun.
We remember your counsel—
Pure like water drawn from the rock.
We remember your discipline—
Firm but full of love.

Oh Baba wa, sun re o.
Sleep on, elder of elders.
Sleep on, Adele Salotun.
Sleep on, the honest tax man.
Sleep on, the pride of Igbara-Oke.
Sleep on, the light that guided many.

Your journey is complete,
Your footprints remain,
Your blessings remain,
Your name remains.

Sun re o, Baba wa.
Ak?ni tí kò ní eégún l??rùn.
Oni ìwà tí kò ní abuku.
Ajanaku tí a kò ní gbàgbé.

Sun re o, Pa Isaac Ademakinwa Ojo.
We will meet on the resurrection morning.
