Olajuwon Balogun

Forever in our heart .
May God Almighty forgive all your shortcoming .
Rest in peace sir

You always had a smile to share, time to give and time to care . A wonderful natural warm and true you were. My special friend and I really do miss you. Rest in peace 🙏.

When I heard of your passing, my heart was filled with deep shock and sorrow. It felt impossible to accept, as I believed you still had so much more time with us. But in the midst of this pain, I find comfort in knowing that God, in His wisdom, sometimes calls His own to rest before the troubles of this world unfold. I hold on to the assurance that you are now in His presence, at peace and free from all burdens.
My dear baba oko, you lived, you struggled, and you overcame. Your strength and resilience will never be forgotten. I am comforted by the belief that you have left this imperfect world to be with your Creator, where there is eternal rest and joy.
Sleep on, my beloved baba oko. Though your absence leaves a deep void, I pray that your passing will be the last sorrow of its kind in our family. May the Lord watch over your children and every loved one you have left behind, granting them strength, comfort, and peace in the days ahead. You will forever remain in our hearts.

I will always remember you smiling, laughing and how you fondly call me Jydoo!!!
Thank you for being an amazing friend, may your soul continue to rest in peace Ọlajuwon.

It is with a heavy heart that I write this tribute to Olajuwon Balogun, fondly known as Agama Lizard. Though we may not have been very close, your presence was one that could always be felt. You had a unique personality and a way of carrying yourself that made people notice and remember you.

The name “Agama Lizard” speaks of your lively spirit, your strength, and the energy you brought into every space. You related freely, and your moments—no matter how small—left an impression that will not be forgotten.

Life is truly fragile, and your passing reminds us all to cherish every moment and every connection. Even in the brief interactions we shared, there was something genuine and human that made knowing you worthwhile.

May your soul rest in perfect peace, Olajuwon. You will be remembered.

Uncle Juwon,

We thank God for the gift of your life and for the grace and greatness you carried into this world. Knowing you was a true blessing, and your life reflected love, strength, and God’s goodness.

Being able to give back to you is a memory I will forever hold close to my heart.

The way family and loved ones have come together in unity and love to honour you is a powerful testament to the impact of your life. You were truly a vessel of love, and that will never be forgotten.

Though you are no longer with us, we take comfort in knowing you are at peace, resting in God’s eternal presence. Your legacy lives on in all of us.

Lase Amisu ❤️

My Gist buddy,
My Friend,
My Forever run to
My Comforter.
My Personal detective😂😂

You were always the calm in my storm. Whenever I ran to you with my problems, you never judged you listened, you understood, and you gave me the most peaceful advice. You had a way of settling my heart and making everything feel lighter, even when the world felt heavy.
The news of your passing pierced my soul. I miss talking to you. I miss the phone calls the hours we spent sharing our lives, laughing, and confiding in one another. Since hearing the news, I haven’t stopped crying. Life has not been the same without you.
Rest well, my dear friend. I take comfort in knowing you are resting in the bosom of the Lord free from pain, free from suffering, at peace.
Rest eternally. You will always live on in my heart. Heaven gained a soul

Hmmmmm, ola juwon mi omobalogun, which I fondly called you, I can't believe you are gone, just like that, you were larger than life, always laughing, you're a wonderful person juwon, selfless person, a giver. I will forever remember the memories we shared together. Sun re oo. I missed your voice

It’s hard to find the right words for someone who was more than a friend for over 30 years; Olajuwon was family to me.

We shared so much of life together, laughter, challenges, and countless memories I will always hold close. He was kind, loyal, and always there when it mattered most.

His loss leaves a space that can never be filled, but I’m grateful for every moment we had.

Rest well, my dear friend. You will always be remembered.

To the living you are gone, to the sorrowful you will never return.
To the angry you were cheated, to the happy you are at peace.....But to me you have never left.

Olajuwon Balogun (AGA), I remember you in my heart and in my thoughts, the memories of love and togetherness we shared will forever linger in my heart and forever in my memory.

The times we fought, the times we faced adversaries together, the times we laughed and say to ourselves tomorrow will be better.

You were a man of many colours, you dined with the who is who in society, You made time to elevate and support the needy and at the same time, never forgetting to always acknowledge that truly there is a LIVING GOD.

Your legacy of Love, hardwork, compassion, trust, selflessness and kindness will forever live on in the hearts of those that were privileged to cross your path.

Death is a JOURNEY we all must make and each must GO ALONE as it’s part of GOD’S master plan.

I thank God for giving me the chance to be with you right till the very end. I take solace in the fact that I know you are in a better place.

You were more than a friend to me and on this note, I am qualified to say ENJOY YOUR REST MY BROTHER AS YOU HAVE TRULY EARNED IT.

Hmmmm. Olajuwon Balogun. Agari.
You may be gone , but your love and Laughter live on in my heart..

Olajuwon, you were a figher, who fought till the end. Thanks for all you did for the family. We love you, but, who are we to query the All-Mighty God. Rest in Peace, Brother.

The brave are always the first to go. As you go back to the garden, and see your maker face to face.
Oluwajuwon, You are the brightest star in the sky. You will be forever missed, Good night and God bless wherever you are. May your soul rest in perfect peace IJN 🙏

Aga was a man of few words but immense impact. Even as his health failed, his principles never wavered. He lived a life of purpose and provided a foundation of reliability that will not be forgotten. We do not just mourn his passing; we stand tall in honor of the standard he set for all of us.Rest in peace

Tribute to our beloved brother.

We still cannot believe that you are no longer with us. It doesn’t feel real, and our hearts are still trying to understand how someone so important to us can be gone. You were not just our brother—you were the pillar of our lives, the one who held us together and made us feel safe.

When Mum and Dad were alive, they always trusted you and reminded you to make sure we were all okay. And you carried that responsibility with so much love, strength, and grace. You became our protector, our guide, and the one we could always depend on.

You cared endlessly—not just for your siblings, but for everyone around you. Your kindness, your warmth, and your selfless heart touched so many lives. You always put others before yourself, always making sure we were alright.

Now that you are gone, we feel a loss that words cannot fully express. It feels like a part of us is missing. But everything you gave us—your love, your strength, your guidance—still lives on within us.

We want you to know this, from the depths of our hearts: we will guide your three lovely children to the best of our ability. We will be there for them, support them, and help them grow with the same love and strength you gave us. They will always know who you were and how deeply you loved them.

We promise to stay united, to stay strong, and to continue the legacy of love you built. We will make you proud.

Rest peacefully, dear brother. You will always be our pillar, our protector, and our forever light. We love you deeply, and you will be missed every single day.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un (Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return)

From Siblings 💔 🙏 ❤️ ✊

I honour and celebrate the life of my uncle. To me, he was like a father.

He was someone who always showed up. Not just in the big moments, but in the quiet, everyday ways that showed how deeply he cared. He checked in, he looked out for us, and he always went above and beyond for the people he loved.

One of the moments I will forever hold close to my heart was my wedding day, when he stood in the place of my late dad. That act alone speaks volumes about the kind of man he was. Loving , dependable, and selfless. He stepped into that role with so much love, and it is a memory I will always cherish.

Since his passing, I have seen people come together from so many different places and walks of life to honour him. Seeing this has been incredibly moving and it speaks to the kind of heart he had. His kindness, generosity, and warmth touched so many lives. 💙

From Juwon (his name sake ❤️)

A true friend is never truly gone.
Their spirit lives on in the memories of those who loved them.

A tribute to my best friend Olajuwon AKA Agar

A life like yours leaves a mark that time can never erase.

Heavenly Father, I commit his soul into Your hands. Forgive his shortcomings, grant him eternal rest, and let Your light shine upon him. Comfort all of us who are left behind, and help us carry on with love, gratitude, and the memory of his beautiful spirit. Amen.

With a heavy heart and deep gratitude, I honor my dearest friend. For the past two years, you were such a bright part of my life. Even though we only had a short time together, it felt like I had known you forever. You were warm, kind, and genuine someone whose presence always made everything feel lighter and easier.

You were always there for me, checking in, encouraging me, and making sure I was okay. Your care and thoughtfulness touched my life in ways I will never forget.

Ahhh…Who will call me “Opeoluwami” with the warmth and affection only you could? I will miss that so dearly.

I am so grateful for every laugh, every conversation, and every moment we shared. You made a real difference in my life, and that will stay with me forever.

Sun re ooo, Olajuwon

Aga! May God grant your soul eternal rest and bless all that you left behind. Sleep peacefully. you will be sorely missed

Rest in peace!

With heavy hearts but deep gratitude for a life well lived, my children and I pay tribute to our dearly beloved cousin, Juwon Balogun.

Juwon was more than family to us. He was a pillar of strength, kindness, and unwavering support. In moments when we needed encouragement, he stood firmly by our side. In times of joy, he celebrated with us wholeheartedly. His presence in our lives was a blessing that words can scarcely capture.

He embodied generosity, humility, and a rare warmth that made everyone around him feel seen and valued. The love and care he showed to my family will never be forgotten. He gave himself selflessly, always ready to lend a helping hand or offer wise counsel, and for that, we remain eternally grateful.

Though his passing leaves a profound void in our hearts, we take comfort in the legacy of love, compassion, and integrity that he leaves behind. His memory will continue to guide and inspire us, and his impact will live on through the many lives he touched.

On behalf of myself and my children, Gbenga, Juwon, Lase, and Samson, we say thank you, Juwon, for everything you were and all that you gave. You will forever remain in our hearts.

May your soul rest in perfect peace.

With love and deepest respect,

High Chief Helen Gbemisola Ogundimu (Bada Iyalode Oke-Ona Egbaland / Borokini I)

Death ends a life, not a relationship. I'll never stop missing you Olajuwon omo Balogun 💔
