Obituary

With gratitude to God, we announce the passing of Mrs. Kehinde Adenike Oke, who was born on November 29, 1961, and passed away on July 16, 2026. 

Kehinde will be remembered for kindness, generosity, and the quiet ability to bring people together. Family, friends, neighbors, and colleagues all experienced the warmth and sincerity that made time spent with Kehinde meaningful. Throughout life, Kehinde built lasting connections and touched many lives through simple acts of care, encouragement, and friendship. Conversations, shared moments, and everyday gestures created memories that will remain with those who had the privilege of knowing Kehinde.

The passing of Kehinde leaves a space that cannot be filled in our hearts. Yet the memories, wisdom, lessons, and moments shared will continue to live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate to know her. We take solace in the assurance that Kehinde died in Christ and that she now rests peacefully in His presence, where there is no more pain, sorrow, or death. Though we grieve her absence, we rejoice in the hope of the resurrection and the promise that we shall meet again in glory.

Mrs Kehinde Adenike Oke (Mum, Grandmum, Sister, and Friend) will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered.

I celebrate a mother in every sense of the word. Warm, compassionate, and always full of life. Her infectious smile, cheerful spirit, and welcoming heart made everyone around her feel valued and loved. She has a way of making you feel special, never hesitated to encourage, guide, and inspire the younger generation, always offering words of wisdom that came from a place of genuine care and experience. We love you ma and may your gentle soul rest in peace. Amen

Mama Oke, a mother to many of us, especially young mothers.

You lived a life truly worthy of emulations.

Mama was so full of Godly wisdom and always ready to advice.

A lover of Christ and His people.

You loved me and family, always praying for and with me.. there is no amount of tribute that could actually express what you mean to us.

Your death has left a huge vacuum that no one may be able to fill. The fact that I was with you few hours before you passed still makes it feel so unbelievable, but we judge God faithful, because He knows the best for each and every one of us.

Sleep well mummy until we meet at resurrection morning.

We will always remember all your motherly advise.

Sun re o, Mummy, we love and miss you.

Grandma Oke as I fondly called you, you tried so much to bring me closer, but the usual me loved you from afar.
You called me about a year and half ago and your words were “Omo ki lo n duro de” ? (Why the delay) but I never spoke out. You went further to say I know it is you who is saying no to your husband but I smiled. I wanted to shock you but you in return gave us the greatest shock. The type that leaves one with so many questions that can neither be answered nor directed to God.
But why?
How?
Didn’t we just speak on Monday?
Didn’t she send me the pictures of a celebrant on Tuesday to be posted on Wednesday?
Wasn’t she the one I saw on Sunday participating in the Lords Supper?


Grandma Oke, on several occasions I heard you speak to us as our own mothers would. You chastised us in love and you always told us we could only win most battles on our knees with God.

You didn’t only preach love ; you demonstrated it.
I am so glad I didn’t say ‘no’ to the last assignment you gave me, even though I was troubled within.

We are consoled that you are in a better place now far beyond our imagination can interpret.
Rest on grandma Oke, we love you so much.

Till we meet again grandma..

Mrs Oke, your passing was a big shock to me. The few times we worked together on our sage in DLI, you demonstrated professionalism, patience, tolerance and team spirit. You were calm but firm and was never tired of our many questions and readily available to resolve issues. I pray that your soul will find eternal rest in the bosom of your maker. The Lord will grant your family the grace to bear this great loss. Goodnight madam . Mrs Imona.

I know death is a something that awaits each and everyone of us but I never expected yours to be at this time.

You were such a woman of substance that opened your arms wide with so much love to those who came around you.
You are a mother indeed to me, your messages and hug whenever you sees me in church meant allot to me.

The earth just lost another upright and loving Angel.
We will surely miss you, however, we take solace in the fact that you’re definitely resting in our Lord’s blossom.

Rest on Ma.

Your kindness, warmth, love, and genuine concern for others were qualities that made you special. Your presence brought joy and comfort to those around you, and your absence has left a painful void that words cannot adequately describe.

It is difficult to believe that you are no longer with us. We will miss your smile, your words of encouragement, your fellowship, and the beautiful person you were. Though our hearts are heavy with grief, we take solace in the memories you left behind and in the knowledge that your life touched many people in meaningful ways.

As we mourn your passing, we also celebrate the life you lived and the love you gave. Your memory will remain forever in our hearts, and your legacy of love and kindness will continue to inspire us.

Rest peacefully, my dear sister. You may have left this earthly life, but you will never leave our hearts

If you think it is not possible to have an individual with good personality traits to emulate you are wrong. We had one in 'Madam'; as I used to call Mrs Oke. An Amiable woman with humility. An adviser on family issues. Professionally, she was a good manager, always encouraging those below her, learnt from those above her and she was dependable during crisis. Bold in her opinion which yielded better results. She would be ready to fight for you when necessary. And after everything, she will be sure to check on you.

"When the Baobab falls: A Heartfelt Tribute to My Beloved First Cousin, Mrs. Kehinde Oke"

"When the Baobab Falls"
Who has written this painful chapter of our lives?
Who has silenced the voice that once brought warmth to every gathering?
Who has stolen the smile that made our hearts blossom with hope?
Oh, Death, why did you come so soon? Why did you choose my indispensable one?

But, have you truly gone?
Is this cruel silence the answer to all our conversations?
Can it be true that I will no longer hear your gentle laughter,
Receive your wise advices,
Or share another moment of heartfelt gist with my confidant?

Life... what a mystery!
What a fleeting shadow!
Today we walk with strength and dreams;
Tomorrow we become memories wrapped in tears.
Indeed, life is but a vapour that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.
Our boasting, our plans, our possessions—all bow before the sovereignty of eternity.

The state of my heart is no longer the same.
My health bears the weight of this unbearable grief.
Every sunrise reminds me of your absence,
Every sunset whispers that another day has passed without you.
How do I explain the emptiness you have left behind?
Who will fill the vacuum your departure has created?

You were more than a sister
You were my discussant when life became complicated.
You were my confidant when words failed before others.
You were my companion in moments of joy and seasons of sorrow.
Your caring heart knew no boundaries,
And your love asked for nothing in return.

Can I ever find another soul so kind?
Can I ever meet another heart so selfless?
Can another voice ever replace yours?
Can another embrace erase the ache your departure has left behind?
These questions echo endlessly through the chambers of my soul.

A mighty tree has fallen in the forest.
The precious iroko has crashed to the ground.
The majestic baobab has been cut down.
A priceless treasure has departed.
A golden vessel has been taken away.
The fragrance of your goodness still lingers,
Even though your footsteps have faded from our sight.

Your children still cry for the mother whose arms gave them comfort.
Your loved ones still wipe tears that refuse to dry.
Your family still waits for a voice that will answer no more.
The wounds are fresh, the pain is deep, and the tears still flow like an endless river.

As the curtain falls on this painful chapter, our hearts remain heavy with grief, yet strengthened by the assurance that those who die in Christ never die in vain.

Though your voice is now silent, its echoes will forever resonate in our hearts. Though your hands no longer hold ours, the warmth of your love will never grow cold in our memories. Though your seat is empty, your footprints remain indelible on the sands of our lives.

Your children are still crying for the loving mother they have lost. Your husband still mourns the faithful companion of his youth. Your siblings still search for the caring sister whose love knew no bounds.

Friends and loved ones still struggle to believe that you have answered the final call. Tears still ooze from weary eyelids, and aching hearts still whisper your name in moments of solitude.

But we dare not mourn as those who have no hope. We commit you into the unfailing hands of the Almighty God, the righteous Judge who knows all things and does all things well.

We trust that you have exchanged the pains of this fleeting world for the everlasting peace of God's eternal kingdom.

Farewell, my beloved sister.
Farewell, my caring companion.
Farewell, my discussant.
Farewell, my confidant.
Farewell, my irreplaceable blood sister.

Rest, our precious jewel.
Rest, our beloved sister.
Rest, our irreplaceable treasure.

Until the resurrection morning, when the trumpet shall sound and the dead in Christ shall rise in glory, sleep peacefully in the bosom of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

Adieu, Mrs. Kehinde Oke.
Goodnight—not goodbye.
Till we meet again, where death shall be no more, tears shall be wiped away, and we shall part no more. Amen.

A tribute to A Mother's Love Beyond Blood

I find it hard, with a heavy heart, to put this down, but I just think I need to do the needful.

When I joined the church and experienced a delay in having my baby, you told me to stay at rest because you had raised an altar for me. Indeed, your prayers worked like a miracle, and that drew me closer to you.

In 2024, when I was in total distress, you held my hand, alongside your prayer partner, for seven days. Ever since then, you have supported my business by buying from me, referring people to me, and praying for my business.

I remember when my biological mother died. Knowing she was a twin, you told me to stay calm, saying, "It is Taiwo that left; Kehinde is here to continue from where she stopped." I thought those were just comforting words, but indeed, you have always been a woman of your word. You stayed and parented me in ways I could never have imagined.

I remember the Monday before your passing. You called me very early, prayed for me, and advised me to take certain steps. Then, on Wednesday, you told me to go home and take care of your children and asked me to call before coming on Thursday morning not knowing that you were handing them over to me.

I can't say it all. But your legacy and all that you have taught us will keep me going.

Maami, I will forever miss you, and I promise never to disappoint you.

Goodnight, Iya Jumoke❤️

I received the news of the death of Mrs Oke today with a rude shock as I have not heard from her in the last few years. I knew her both at the College of Medicine and the Main Campus of the University of Lagos in a professional capacity. Mrs Oke gave strong and effective support to our EDP units at both campuses. She rendered her professional services with high ethical and moral values, and exhibited the fear of God in all her dealings with us at the University.
May her soul rest in peace .

Huummmm moooomi Oke as l used to call you.
What can l say or do when our God is in action because whatever he does is the final.
This world is not our home, we are all just passing through it because our treasures are laid up beyond the blues.
I couldn't believe it when the news came to me but what can l say when God says you should come back home that you have finished your race.
You came, saw and conquered glory be to God.
There are so many things that you did which can't be forgotten.
May your gentle soul continue to rest in the bossom of Lord till eternity Amen
May the Lord takes care of your children, the family, the Church of God and all other things that you left behind
Sleep on iya Oke till we meet to part no more Amen.

Tribute to our beloved Grandma Kehinde Oke

It was a deep shock to hear of the passing of Mrs. Kehinde Oke, a woman whose kindness, love, and gentle spirit touched everyone she met. She was both goodly and godly, carrying herself with a quiet grace that made her presence comforting. Her smile so warm, constant, and freely given even to strangers, was a ministry on its own, a reflection of the Christlike heart she carried.

We are assured that she now rests peacefully at the bosom of the Lord, embraced by eternal joy. Though her departure leaves a painful void, her legacy of compassion and godliness continues to shine brightly in the lives she touched.

May God grant her family and the entire church the fortitude to bear this loss, and may her memory remain a blessing to all.

Rest on grandma!

TRIBUTE TO A WONDERFUL AND AN AMAZING BIG SISTER- DNS KEHINDE OKE.

Your death came as a rude shock to me.

I still find it difficult to believe that you're gone.

Your passing has left a deep void, and your memory will always remain in my heart.

I recalled on Saturday 11th of July, 2026 after the celebration of our Association at 15, The Good Message Baptist Association, you told me twice, Aburo, go home on time so that Iyawomi will eat from the food I was given.


Sincerely, I am still struggling to come to terms with the reality of your absence.

You may be gone from this world, but your kindness, laughter, and the memories we shared will stay with me, most especially when you were the WMU President of FEDERAL ESTATE BAPTIST CHURCH, .

Continue to rest in perfect peace.

Tribute to Mrs. Kehinde Oke

From God we came and unto him we shall all return. Mrs. Kehinde Oke’s departure has left a vacuum in our hearts and personally a space in my IT professional life. Fondly called Mama Sage by my colleagues at the Bursary Department, University of Lagos where she consults on Sage ERP software, she was not just a mentor, but a guiding light. Mama Sage embodied humility, calmness, and wisdom in every step she took.

Though she has departed, her legacy remains etched in our hearts. We will remember her laughter, her patience, and her unwavering belief in the potential of everyone she mentored.

Madam Kehinde Oke, your wisdom continues to guide us, your calm spirit continues to inspire us, and your memory will forever be cherished. Rest peacefully, knowing that your light still shines through those you touched.

May God grant Mrs. Kehinde Oke Eternal Rest

A Tribute to My Prayer Mother

It is still so difficult to accept that you are gone, Maami. Your departure has left a space in our hearts that can never truly be filled.
So many burdens God has helped you to lift from my heart.
I remember how you noticed the repeated bike accidents I was having some years back. You didn't ignore it. You took me to the prayer room for days, laid me before God, and prayed earnestly for me and God gave me victory.
This year again, I had so much fear in me because I needed to take a step, you never stopped interceding for me. By 12:00am you would call me to pray and God helped me. Your voice still echoes in my heart: "Omomi, you will testify. Your testimony is near." Those words gave me hope and strengthened my faith.
That was the kind of mother you were,always carrying the burdens of others as though they were your own.
Maami, I miss you deeply. Thank you for loving me, believing in me, and standing in the gap for my family. Heaven has indeed gained a faithful soldier of Christ.
Sleep on, my prayer mother. Until we meet again at the feet of our Lord, rest well, Maami.

Today, we come together with heavy hearts to celebrate the life of Mrs. Kehinde Oke (née Adewole). Her earthly journey began on 29th November 1961 and peacefully ended on 16th July 2026.

Her passing has left a deep void in our hearts, but we remember not only the pain of losing her but also the joy of having known and loved her.

Mrs. Kehinde Oke was a woman of grace, strength, humility, and compassion. She touched many lives with her kindness, generosity, and unwavering commitment to her family, friends, and community. Her warm smile, gentle spirit, and encouraging words brought comfort and hope to many.

She faced life with courage and dignity. She met joyful and challenging moments with steadfast faith. Her love for her family was unconditional. She devoted herself to supporting those around her. She leaves behind a legacy of love, integrity, hard work, and selfless service that will inspire future generations.

Though death has separated us physically, the beautiful memories she created will forever stay in our hearts. We find comfort in knowing that a life lived with purpose never truly ends. Her influence continues in the lives she touched, the values she instilled, and the love she freely shared.

As we say goodbye, we pray that God grants her eternal rest and gives strength, comfort, and peace to everyone mourning her loss.

The words of Scripture remind us:

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." 2 Timothy 4:7

Mrs. Kehinde Oke faced her challenges with dignity and finished well. Though she will be deeply missed, her memory will always be a treasured blessing.

May her gentle soul rest in perfect peace.

Forever remembered. Forever loved. Never forgotten.

A tribute to a darling mother.

Thank you, Mummy, for loving me as one of your own. Your warmth, kindness, and unwavering support made everyone who knew you proud to be associated with you. You carried our burdens as though they were yours, covered us with heartfelt prayers, and always stood by us with genuine love.

Goodnight, Mummy. Your voice still echoes in my heart, especially when you would lovingly call me, "Dayo, ọmọ mi." You will be deeply missed, but your love and legacy will remain with us always. Love you always, maami

Tribute in loving memory of Mrs. Kehinde Adenike Oke, a friend, a colleague, and a truly beautiful soul.

Mrs Oke was one of those rare people whose presence made life gentler for everyone around her. She carried kindness like a second nature — never forced, never selective, simply part of who she was. Whether in moments of pressure or moments of joy, she remained warm, calm, and gracious. She treated people with respect, listened with sincerity, and gave with a heart that never tired.

In the workplace, she was more than a colleague. She was a steady voice, a supportive hand, and a source of quiet strength. Her professionalism was admirable, but it was her humanity that made her unforgettable. She had a way of making people feel seen, valued, and appreciated, and that is a gift not many possess.

As a friend, she was loyal, thoughtful, and deeply caring. She celebrated others genuinely and stood by them compassionately. Her laughter brought light, her words brought comfort, and her character brought peace.

Her passing leaves a space that cannot be filled, but her legacy remains — in the lives she touched, the hearts she warmed, and the goodness she shared so effortlessly. We are grateful for the time we had with her, even though it feels far too short.

May her gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
May her memory continue to inspire kindness in all of us.
And may we honour her by living with the same grace she showed every day.

There are not enough words to truly capture the depth of my gratitude for you👌you were God’s gift to me, a vessel of His love, strength, and grace in my life.
I learned to trust God even in the darkest seasons.

Your life was a reflection of God’s mercy and kindness,
When my home was breaking apart you came through for me in prayers and words of encouragement. When I felt lost, you pointed me back to God Your words were filled with wisdom, my worries became your worries
You always correct me with love.

Because of you, I understand that even in hardship, His grace is sufficient and His plans are always good.

Today, I honored your memories and
I pray to God to help me never to forget all teachings
May your words continue to guide me

To maami,

In my difficult times, I didn’t have to say much.
You just looked at me and said, “Let’s pray.”
And Heaven moved.

You fought battles for me on your knees.
You cried to God for me when I didn’t have words.
You believed for me when my faith was small.
You chose me, loved me, and then you covered me in prayer.

Mama, I don’t know where I’d be without those prayers.
Every door that opened, every time I was kept safe, every time peace came —
I know your voice was in there, talking to God for me.

Today I’m mourning you, and I’m thanking God for you in the same breath.
Thank You, Lord, for lending her to me.
Thank You for her faith that carried me.

I promise to pray like you prayed.
To be strong like you were strong.
To keep going, with your prayers still echoing in my heart.

I miss you, my prayer warrior.
Rest in peace. I love you forever. 🙏
