The funeral service and reception at the Micom Golf Ground drew a cross-section of society, reflecting the breadth of influence wielded by the late industrialist, whose contributions to enterprise and community development resonated far beyond his immediate environment.
Among those who attended was Oluwole Oke, Director-General of the APC Campaign Council, whose presence conveyed a deeper sense of duty, not only as a political figure but as a participant in a shared communal history shaped by service and legacy.
Also present were former Governor of Osun State and Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Gboyega Oyetola, alongside former Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola, lending historical and political resonance to the gathering.
Other dignitaries included Dr. (Mrs) Shekinah Oyebamiji; Engr Adereti Kayode Benjamin; Senator Babajide Omoworare; Hon. Mrs Ayo Omidiran; Prince Bayo Adeleke-Banik; and Ambassador Rafiu Adejare Bello.
Tributes at the event dwelt less on loss and more on continuity — a life defined by industry, philanthropy and an abiding commitment to community upliftment.
For many in attendance, the ceremony was not merely a farewell, but a reflective pause — a moment to reckon with a legacy that, in its quiet strength, will continue to shape the contours of community and enterprise for years to come.
