Biography
Early Life and Origins
Olasunkanmi Titus Abiola was born on 9 December 1954 in Osun State, Nigeria, to the family of James Abiola and Mewolaka Abiola of Ijebu-Ijesha. He was the youngest of four children and was raised in a home where the values of hard work, faith, and respect were not merely taught but exemplified daily.
From his earliest years, young Sunkanmi, as he was fondly known by those closest to him, displayed a quiet strength of character and an eagerness to learn that set him apart. His roots in Osun State and his deep connection to Ijebu-Ijesha profoundly shaped his identity, instilling in him a pride in his heritage and a love for his people that remained with him throughout his life.
Education and Career
Committed to excellence from an early age, Olasunkanmi Titus Abiola pursued his education with focus and determination. He attended Ado Grammar School before proceeding to the University of Calabar, where he earned a Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) degree. There, he developed a deep and thorough grounding in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, a discipline that would become not only his profession but also his life's calling.
What followed was a distinguished career spanning several decades, leaving an indelible mark on all who encountered his work. He rose to become the Managing Director of Multi-Power Engineering Limited, a position he held with the quiet authority of a man who had earned every step of his ascent. Under his visionary leadership and steady guidance, the company grew and flourished, remaining a respected name in Nigeria's engineering landscape for over three decades. Its longevity stands as a testament not only to business success but also to the trust and reputation he carefully cultivated throughout his lifetime.
His areas of expertise, electrical and electronic design, installations, and maintenance, were never merely job functions. They were a craft he approached with rigour, creativity, and an uncompromising commitment to quality. Whether on a project site or in the boardroom, he consistently demonstrated precision, professionalism, and integrity.
Those who worked under him remember not only his technical brilliance but also his patience, mentorship, and unwavering belief that excellence was never optional. He trained hands, sharpened minds, and built teams that reflected the values he embodied.
Multi-Power Engineering Limited was more than a business he managed; it was a legacy he built, brick by brick, wire by wire, through over thirty years of dedicated service.
In his career, as in every other area of his life, Olasunkanmi Titus Abiola never cut corners because he understood that what is built with integrity will stand the test of time.
Marriage and Family Life
Olasunkanmi Titus Abiola was a family man in the truest sense of the word. He is reunited in eternal rest with his beloved wife, the late Olufunke Mojisola Abiola, who preceded him in death. Their union was built on love, commitment, and a shared faith in God. Even after her passing, Papa carried her memory with tenderness, and those closest to him knew she remained a cherished part of his life until his final breath.
Together, and through the various seasons of life, Papa became the proud father of four children, each a testament to his dedication to the next generation. He provided not only materially but also emotionally and spiritually. He led by example, teaching his children that a person's word is their bond, that hard work is honourable, and that every achievement should be accompanied by gratitude to God.
His home was one of open doors and warm hearts. Friends, relatives, and neighbours were always welcome, and many who passed through the Abiola household carried with them memories of his generosity, wisdom, and the unmistakable assurance that they were genuinely cared for.
Though he spent the final years of his life without his wife by his side, he did so with grace, leaning on his faith, surrounded by his children, and anchored by the certainty that their separation was only temporary.
Faith Journey and Church Involvement
If there was one thread woven through every chapter of the life of Olasunkanmi Titus Abiola, it was his unwavering faith. He was not a man who wore religion lightly. From his youth, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to God, and that devotion only deepened with the passing years.
He was a cherished and committed member of St. Jude's Anglican Church, Mende, Lagos, where he worshipped, served, and fellowshipped faithfully for many years. He also remained deeply connected to his ancestral spiritual home, the Cathedral Church of St. Matthew, Ijebu-Ijesha, in the Diocese of Ijesha North. He maintained this connection with pride and loyalty throughout his life, serving as a living bridge between the man he had become and the community that had nurtured him.
One of his most distinguished acts of service to the Church came through his appointment as a Licensed Lay Reader in the Diocese of Lagos West. He embraced this role with humility, diligence, and deep reverence. As a Lay Reader, he proclaimed the Word of God with conviction, led worship with humility, and served the congregation with a true servant's heart. To him, it was not merely a title but a sacred calling—one he honoured faithfully for as long as his strength allowed.
Beyond the Anglican Communion, Papa's faith found expression through active evangelism. He was an Executive Member of the Full Gospel Business Men's Fellowship International (FGBMFI), a platform through which he combined his identity as a businessman with his passion for advancing the Kingdom of God.
Within the Fellowship, he was known not merely as a member but as a committed ambassador of Christ—one who consistently showed up, stood firm, and spoke boldly for his faith. His commitment to soul-winning was unwavering, and his passion for the Gospel remained undiminished throughout his life. He was indeed a faithful soldier in God's army and remained on active duty until his final breath.
Those who sat under his ministry will remember not only a voice that read Scripture but a life that embodied it. He prayed fervently, gave generously, and loved unconditionally. His faith was not merely a part of his life—it was his life.
Passing and Legacy
On the morning of 22 May 2026, the Lord called His faithful servant home. In that moment, we believe with all our hearts that what had been separated on earth was beautifully restored in heaven, that Papa was reunited with his beloved wife, Olufunke Mojisola Abiola, in the presence of the God they both served so faithfully.
Though the news of his passing brought profound grief to all who loved him, it was tempered by the quiet and unshakable comfort of a life well lived and a faith faithfully kept.
Olasunkanmi Titus Abiola leaves behind four beloved children, an extended family across Lagos and Osun States, a congregation that mourns a pillar of faith, and a community that has lost a quiet giant.
His seat may now be empty. His voice may no longer fill the sanctuary. Yet his prayers continue to echo in the hearts of those he touched, his example continues to illuminate the path for others, and his legacy—built not in stone but in character—will endure for generations to come.
He fought the good fight.
He finished the race.
He kept the faith.
And now, reunited with his beloved wife, they rest in the Lord they both loved and served faithfully.
Deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Forever Loved. Forever Remembered.

Baba o.. That is a man I met from business but it is always his steppings and soft life like he had no problem at all.
A good man to have dealt with and though I know him for a short while, I enjoyed the few moments we had a business together and the other wonderful people I met through him.
To Jehovah we keep our resurrection hope

Daddy,
You lived such an exemplary life. A life worthy of emulation. You showed us what it means to live a life of purpose and to serve God faithfully.
Wise, loving, humble, and unassuming are the words I would use to describe you.
You always encouraged us to "live a life of purpose." That is what I have carried with me all these years.
I am persuaded that the covenant-keeping God whom you served so faithfully will wrap His loving arms around the family you have left behind.
Rest well, Daddy.

TRIBUTE TO MY DEAR FRIEND AND BROTHER, ENGR. OLASUNKANMI TITUS ABIOLA
By Michael A. Olajide
Engr. Olasunkanmi Titus Abiola, my dear brother and friend, thank you for being the remarkable person God made you to be throughout your lifetime.
By divine arrangement, our paths crossed nearly twenty-nine years ago when God brought you and your family to St. Jude’s Anglican Church, Mende, Maryland. You lived in Anthony Village and could easily have chosen to worship at one of the prominent Anglican churches closer to your home, but God, in His wisdom, brought you to St. Jude’s. Little did we know that day that He was also bringing together two men whose friendship would endure for decades.
I still remember meeting you for the first time after that Sunday service. Without hesitation, I informed you that you had automatically become a member of my society, the Christ Unity Band (CUB), and introduced you to the other members. Although some of them were considerably older than us, you immediately fitted in. From that day onward, our friendship blossomed, and before long, our wives also became close friends.
It is often said that true friendship is one of God's greatest gifts, and I consider your friendship one of the greatest blessings of my life. Through the years, your counsel, prayers, encouragement, and unwavering support strengthened me on countless occasions. Your wisdom, dependability, humility, and kindness enriched not only my life but also the lives of many others who had the privilege of knowing you.
Your commitment to the work of God at St. Jude’s Anglican Church was extraordinary. You gave freely of your time, resources, and talents for the growth and development of the Church. We worked side by side on several projects, particularly during the church building project. I still remember when the congregation elected you People's Warden at a Vestry Meeting, which you did not even attend. When informed of your election, you humbly accepted the responsibility and discharged it with remarkable dedication, commitment, and passion.
After your tenure as People's Warden, you were appointed Chairman of the Building Committee. Under your leadership, the project progressed steadily until the church building was eventually dedicated by the Bishop. You served God and His Church faithfully and sacrificially until your very last days on earth.
I had the privilege of witnessing firsthand your integrity, humility, and passion for God's work. One memory that remains particularly dear to me was the day Venerable A. G. Adeyeye nominated both of us to become Lay Readers in the Diocese of Lagos West. I felt inadequate and was reluctant to accept the nomination because I believed my faith had not reached that level. You looked at me and simply said, "Mike, you can do it." Those few words of encouragement gave me the confidence to move forward. That was who you were—always encouraging others to become better versions of themselves.
You embodied reliability and selflessness in every sense of the word. In moments of joy and in times of difficulty, you remained a steadfast pillar of support, not only to me but also to countless members of the Church community. Your calm disposition, gentle spirit, commitment to excellence, and willingness to serve made you an inspiration to all who knew you.
Our friendship became so close that you honoured me by making me the Godfather of your youngest son, Olamiposi, at his baptism. Today, I am proud to see him growing into a responsible young man, ably coordinating his father's burial arrangements. I know you would have been proud of him.
One of my most cherished memories of you occurred during the burial of your beloved wife in Ijebu-Jesha. You assured me that accommodation had been arranged for me, and I assumed it was somewhere nearby. To my surprise, the arrangement was your own room and your own bed. That night, we shared not just a room but a deep conversation about life, family, and the future.
During that conversation, we spoke about a challenge involving your daughter. After we discussed the matter, you graciously agreed to forgive her and promised to reach out to her. Sadly, circumstances prevented us from following up on that conversation. Shortly after the Synod of the Diocese of Lagos West, which we both attended as delegates, our mutual friend and brother, Prof. Segun Awonusi, contacted me to suggest that we visit you together and invite your daughter so that complete reconciliation could be confirmed. Sadly, that opportunity never came before we received the shocking news of your sudden departure.
Yet, I take great comfort in knowing the kind of man you were. You were a man of honour, integrity, and sincerity—a man whose word could always be trusted. Your "yes" was always yes, and your "no" was always no. Having listened to you that night, I have no doubt whatsoever that you had forgiven your daughter in your heart, because forgiveness, compassion, and righteousness were part of your nature.
Olufunmilola, be assured that your father spoke with love, understanding, and a forgiving spirit. I firmly believe that he made peace with the situation before the Lord called him home. May that assurance bring comfort to your heart and strengthen you in the days ahead.
Engr. Abiola, thank you for being a loyal friend, a dependable brother, a faithful servant of God, and a shining example of Christian commitment and service. Thank you for the memories, the friendship, the encouragement, and the countless ways you enriched our lives.
Though our hearts are heavy with grief, we rejoice in the assurance that you lived a life of purpose, impact, and service to God and humanity.
Farewell, my dear brother and friend.
Goodbye for now, until the Resurrection Morning, when by God's grace we shall meet again to part no more.
May your gentle soul rest in perfect peace. Amen.

TRIBUTE TO ENGR KANMI ABIOLA
(TO LIVE IN THE HEARTS OF OTHERS IS NOT TO DIE) –Thomas Campbell (1777 -1844)
There are many sad ironies in life that only God can resolve. That is why it is with a heavy heart that I managed to write this tribute. We lost, with a profound sense of sadness, Mrs. Funke Abiola, who was a woman of grace and untiring soldier of Christ a few months ago. Though we all grieved, Engr Olasunkanmi Abiola as the husband and the social collectivity of his children definitely felt the devastating impact more than all of us, especially as over a few years or many moths he had nursed a sick but loving wife. Then we all thought that Engr Abiola was getting better and coping with the grief when he stood tall with the children as one of them got married a few months later. In fact, we felt that the incident was a great consolation for him, but who are we as mere mortals to know the ways of God? That is why the passing on of Engr Titus Olasunkanmi Abiola to the other side of this ethereal divide, a few months after the demise of his wife, remains a puzzle or mystery only God can untangle.
All the above show that the relatively untimely passing on of Eng Abiola remains a loss and a mystery. Our country has lost a great and committed professional in the Engineering corridor of life space, a celebrated prayer warrior and lay reader in the ecclesiastical domain, a caregiver with a robust social conscience and a true and ever reliable friend the social milieu.
Thanks to the amiable computer guru/scientist, Mr Mike Olajide, my path crossed that of the late Engr Abiola when he brought and introduced him to us in St Jude’s Church, Mende Maryland. Engr Abiola immediately demonstrated the image of an affable personality with a high friendly disposition. Though seemingly quiet he was a fervent worker in the church of God. It was, therefore, easy for us to pray and converse together in our Church society known as Christ Unity Band (CUB), the relatively younger age of some of us notwithstanding. Occasional visits to his former residence in Anthony Village shows a man who was hospitable, warm, chatty and friendly. When both Mike and Kanmi stepped higher in the ecclesiastical ladder by becoming Diocesan Lay readers, they both pushed spirituality to new heights. Indeed, the companionship of the late Mrs Abiola and her husband as Lay readers provided a layer of spirituality and unity that made the couple efficient church workers.
On a personal note, I cannot forget the sense of hospitality of the Abiolas. A Canada-based friend of mine lost his father who was of Ijebu Ijesha extraction and the funeral was planned for Ijebu Ijesha. Since I did not recollect the availability and tariff of hotels in the town, especially as myself, my wife and four of her friends need accommodation in Ijebu Ijesha for two or three days, I sought for information from Engr Abiola. Engr Abiola simply told to forget that challenge and that the problem was solved. He told me had just completed his country home in Ijesha and would welcome my and our friends to stay there. We were given the accommodation and, in addition, he sent his wife to Ijebu Ijesha to provide us with food and other conveniences. That was Kanmi Abiola for you.
What I never knew was that his joining me at the Service of Songs of my late brother, a month after the marriage of his son, was to be the last of our social and religious conviviality. He exchanged soul lifting pleasantries with me as he consoled me. That was the last we saw and talked before his disappearance into eternity, convincing us all of the ephemerality of life. Indeed, as Shakespeare remarked in Macbeth
Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then he is heard no more.
We however take solace in the American Negro spiritual song
By and by when the morning comes
When the saints of God are gathered home,
We will tell the story how we’ve overcome,
We will understand it better by and by.
Therefore, we wish Engr Titus Abiola goodbye.
Bye, a doyen of the Electrical Engineering profession
Bye, a soldier of Christ, in his vineyard
Bye, a humane philanthropist and mentor
Bye, a great friend and friend and friend
May you continue to rest peacefully in the bosom of your Maker.

It was Fredrick Engels who stated that “o death; thou art a misfortune: not to him that dies, but to him that survives”. The death of our dear Engineer Abiola is nothing but a “misfortune” - certainly, of indescribable proportions. Engineer Abiola was a gentleman, a father, committed Christian, a leader and most importantly, a humanist. He lived out his values, which were embedded in his Christian convictions. Our paths crossed while we worshipped together at St Jude’s Anglican Church, Mende, Maryland. St Jude was a family church, where members were closely knitted together. Daddy Abiola and his amiable wife, Mummy Olufunke, stood out in their commitment. As young people, many of us looked up to them - and they never disappointed. Daddy Abiola not only mentored a lot of us; he literally gave us limitless helping hand. Guided with invaluable advice, and other sundry support. When he joined us in Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship International, he stood out. His commitment and leadership attributes were clear. No wonder he attained leadership positions in a short period; attaining the director’s rank in a few years.
The loss of this exceptional man is huge misfortune to me and my family. I remember my encounter with him in the corporate world, where he stood his ground, based on his Christian faith, despite the allure of quick wealth. He not only earned my respect, but that of my superiors.
His death, coming shortly after the death of his dear wife, is a huge blow. But as Christians, we have learned not to “mourn like people without hope”. Our hope remains in Him, who is the resurrection and life, and in Whom all who believe in (including Daddy Abiola) will not die, but live for ever.
And so, I join other saints to sing “Peace; Perfect Peace…”

Whatever I have to write about Daddy Abiola, volumes of books wouldn't be able to contain it. Your sterling qualities and how you have impacted my life and my family greatly can not be expressed in just few words but space will not permit me to do justice to it. Nevertheless, I will drop these few words.
*“Daddy, Daddy* just as I usually called him, and *Daddy* would respond and say *ALUFA MI*. *Daddy* was one in a million. He was very hard-working and was always eager and ready to do anything for anyone who came his way for one assistance or another, which I was one of the beneficiaries. He was full of love and compassion towards humanity! I so much cherish all the years that I had the rare privilege of moving closely with him.
A giver per excellence. Oftentimes I wondered if he would not give his entire being out to people considering the way and manner he gave generously to all and sundry. The news of his death came as a rude shock to me since I still saw him at the Synod before then and he was so full of life, there was no sign to indicate his passing at all.
I remembered the day we had our baby, he came to the house to wish us congratulations which made my family and I love him so much and also engineered our movement to a new apartment which my family would never forget for life.
Haa, death where is your sting and grave where is your victory? How I wish he would still be around to continue to eat the fruits of his labor. He indeed came, saw and conquered. I thank God greatly for the life he lived. Continue to rest in the bosom of your Redeemer till the resurrection morning. Odabo, odigbose Daddy.

Dear Daddy Abiola, it's hard for me to even write any tribute now. How do I start? We were together at the SYNOD on Thursday 14th May till Sunday, which was the final day and thanksgiving. We danced like never before in your well tailored agbada. Not even a sign that that will be the last time with you. I didn't get myself for 3 days because I kept on thinking of the period at the SYNOD, looking at the pictures and videos. This was really a rude shock! Closest I have ever gotten. It was as if you knew. You launched the Harvest banner launch on the 14th of May, that was supposed to be held on the 31st of May. How can I put all these together. When your wife passed on, you promised me you will be strong for all of us. Its well. I am happy you passed on serving your maker diligently. Adieu Daddy Abiola. May your soul RIP, Amen.

It is very hard to say goodbye at this time.
The pain is something words can't explain losing you a few months after we laid your beautiful wife to rest.
Who am I to query God? To everything there's a season and a time to every purpose under heaven.
A time to be born and a time to die. ( Ecclesiastes 3: 1-2 )
You're a man of love, respect with a generous heart.
I thank God for the selfless life you lived. May God comfort everyone you left behind especially your wonderful young children.
Sleep on my beloved BABA OLA until the resurrection morning where we all meet and part no more.

Big daddy as I fondly call you, you were a gentle guide with a peaceful soul, loving in your own way. Your demise is now a reality as I don't see you to greet again on my way to work everyday.

Rest on, Big Daddy.

My Loving Brother
Dear brother, you never told me that 20th May was our last discussion, which was cut short by a knock on your door. I said let me free you for now, to talk later. The latter never came to be, what a pity! As if you knew the time was near, you shared your resolution and determination to serve out God and affect humanity with all your strength and substance for the rest of your life. We concluded that only things done in and for God really count, while all others are vanity. Is life not really vanity?
It pained me that death did not allow you to carry out your plans, but my joy is that heaven had recorded it that you had a mind to honour your creator and humanity. I thank God for your gentle spirit and humility.
Though you were the only son and the lastborn of your mother, you were well disciplined by our strong disciplinarian mother. You turned out to be the simplest among your siblings. Not willing to hurt anybody, you absorbed whatever comes your way, it was not of you to fight for your right or claim your right, you forgo for love and peace, always ready to apologize, and to maintain a friendly environment. Your Kind is REAR. You went through the ordeals of your wife quietly, not bothering anybody, and yet it appeared all was well, and when it finally happened for her to answer the call of her creator, you took it in faith that God knows best and thanked him for allowing you to do your very best for her. What a RESILIENT SPIRIT.
It was not easy to secure a good job after graduation, but you worked very hard and diligently with the resources your loving Mother, Mewolaka of blessed memory, gave you. You were so prudent to a fault. Thank God for the support of your wife, Olufunke of blessed memory, who backed you up financially and prayerfully. I cannot forget your simplicity of acceptance of our discussion on giving your life to Christ for Salvation, redemption, victory, and success in life. This brought a turnaround to your life and work.
Thanks to the Ministry of Full Gospel Business Men, which was a platform for your spiritual development, where you found a closer relationship with the Almighty.
I cannot forget your token of love to me during my struggle to establish, though you were still struggling too. You made the sacrifice without me asking for assistance. A token I cannot forget for God blessed your labour of love. My husband, the Most Revd, Dr C.T Omotunde, thanks God for your life, which was well lived in Christ. He commended your hard work, simplicity, and humility. He concluded by saying, "In all things, give thanks." “Olorun mu Olododo lo saju ibi.
My dear, loving, quiet, simple, and humble brother, I cannot forget you. Can I easily forget our sincere talks, chats, and plans? I miss you dearly and wonder how to keep on without you on stage. I know you are resting at the feet of our saviour. I will also work and walk consciously so that I do not miss eternity, where we shall see again.
Adieu “Kanmi, as I often called you. My sister (as you called me).

Daddy, where do I even begin? Writing these words feels so unreal because you were not just my father-in-law; you were my own father, my best friend, my gist partner, my guardian, and one of the greatest blessings God brought into my life.
From the very first day, you welcomed me with open arms and loved me as your own daughter. The way you cared for me, pampered me, and always called me your daughter made me feel truly special. I will forever miss the way you would call me “omoo” with so much love and affection. That simple word carried a warmth that only you could give.
One thing I admired so much about you was your unwavering faith and your desire to see all of us grow closer to God. You constantly reminded us of the importance of having a relationship with Him and living a life rooted in faith.
Even after the painful loss of mummy, you carried the responsibility of looking after all of us with so much strength and without a single
complaint. You were a pillar for the family, a man whose love was shown through actions and sacrifices.
There was never a dull moment with you. Your jokes, your stories, your laughter, and the way you could lighten any atmosphere are memories I will carry in my heart forever. Even when you were battling your own challenges, you never allowed your pain to steal your smile. Whenever we asked how you were doing, your response was always “No, I’m okay oo”.
Such was the strength and selflessness of the man you were. Even a day before you passed you were still making jest of me not knowing that would be the last time I would hear your voice or see you.
Daddy, thank you for every conversation we shared, every word of advice, every prayer, every moment of laughter, and every act of love. Thank you for accepting me completely and loving me beyond the title of a daughter-in-law.
You may no longer be here physically, but your love, your teachings, your kindness, and the beautiful memories we shared will live with me forever.
I will miss you deeply, Daddy. I will miss hearing “omoo” I will miss our gists, your guidance, and your presence.
Rest peacefully in the bosom of the Lord. Until we meet again, know that you were deeply loved, and you will forever remain in my heart.
Your daughter, always.

You are the greatest gift I ever received. And I understand that way better now. Thank you for being my dad and teaching me. You served God faithfully and you have shown me why I should be closer to God.
“I am still learning” as you would fondly say to me. Your embodiment of Christ light is a lesson that I will continue to aspire for. “Everything that happens in life has its reason” you would say “Even life is not fair” it is so funny to me now that I remember the things you would tell me just to keep me going. I am still learning to accept this as my reality. But God understands all things including choosing you to serve in his kingdom.
Dad lived in Christ and now he has returned to the giver of life. Your impact was immense on all of us and your absence has left us tremendously speechless. There are not enough words for a tribute to this legend. You have served very well daddy. May your soul find eternal peace and your legacy live on in.
Christ. Rest easy Popsy

My father was a strong, hardworking, disciplined, dedicated, loving, and deeply caring man. His life was a true reflection of commitment — to his family, his work, and above all, to God.
From childhood, I watched him wake up at 4 a.m. every morning, whether he was preparing for work or going for his runs at Anthony Stadium in Maryland, Lagos. His discipline was not something he practiced occasionally; it was simply who he was. Those early mornings with him remain some of my most treasured memories.
Daddy was an electrical engineer, but what made him a true role model was not only his profession, but the kind of man he was. He loved God deeply and served Him faithfully. He was either at work carrying out his responsibilities or in the house of the Lord, and he brought the same honesty, dedication, and integrity into every part of his life.
He never dropped me off at school without leaving me with words of encouragement and advice — little lessons that stayed with me through every stage of life. He taught me the importance of hard work, not just through his words, but through the example he set every single day. Life was not always easy for him, yet he never complained. He worked, prayed, and trusted God.
Working with him for three years was one of the greatest blessings of my life. Although electrical engineering was not originally the path I had imagined for myself, I am grateful for the opportunity to have walked in his footsteps. Through that experience, I saw firsthand the excellence, humility, discipline, and devotion that defined him.
Daddy was my guide, my counsellor, and the standard I looked up to. Before making decisions, I always valued his wisdom and guidance. Even though he is no longer here physically, the lessons he taught me continue to shape my life. He passed the baton, and I will honour him by living a life that reflects the values he instilled in me.
I thank God for the precious two months I was able to spend with him before his sudden passing. Those moments were a gift I will always hold close to my heart.
Daddy loved Mama deeply, and their marriage — built on faith, love, and service — remains an example I will always admire. I find comfort in believing that they are together again in the presence of the Lord.
I promise to continue carrying the values you taught me and to honour the legacy you left behind. I will be fine, Daddy. I will carry your name and your teachings with pride.
Daddy, you have finished your race and are now resting. I look forward to the day we meet again.
I love you forever.

My Dad has always been my Mentor and Stil My Mentor. A Man of God; A Man of Strong Faith and Believe; A Man have always looked up to ever since I came into this world as a Baby. He thought me with Humility and Wisdom, you can conquer the World.
“PIRO”” Always Smiling” that what My Father would say, unknowing to him, that he thought me with every of his actions, and how he handled situations; with peace and compassion in his Heart, without violence.
When I see when my mum is really going hard on him; and how he just keeps quiet and do what needs to be done without any form of hatred but moving in Love And Compassion. That tells a lot about The Man and Who He His and Where is from and Who he Serves, at the same time still growing and flowing in Abundant Grace; Which Man Wouldn’t want to be like such A Man, Father, Brother and Son to Many.
My Dad does not Joke with Devotions and Fellowships. He always sees it has his opportunity to party and learn from God with the People he Loves. A very kind and humble Father fi led with so much Wisdom that comes Through His Actions.
My Father would always tell me and my sibling about God and how God has manifested in his life and that of his Family. He made me understand how holding on to God strongly and tightly makes Life Easier and Better even at your Worse Times. He made me understand that at the end of everything, whether good or bad, we should always go to God before making an approach to anything in Life.
I want us al that have experienced Engr. Titus Olasunkanmi Abiola to hold on to whatever we have learnt from him. He has Come, Accomplished and has Gone back to the Lord to Rest from the Works of the World; So, He Has Fulfil led His Purpose for God and Resting Good With Mum, with so Much Joy and Smiles In their Hearts; Both Praising and Singing to the Lord.
Let’s use this Opportunity to do our part for the Lord before we Depart. God Loves Us All, and He wants to see us fulfil His Purpose, and have all who have chosen him, come to the Place God has Set for Us.
Rest Beautifully Dad; We would continue to keep your Legacy. Forever You
Remain in My Heart. I Love You Dad

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day." 2 Timothy 4:7–8 (NIV)
There are men who simply exist in the world, and there are men who illuminate it. Dad was undeniably the latter, a man whose life was not measured in years alone, but in the depth of his devotion, the strength of his prayers, and the quiet yet unshakeable faith that anchored everyone around him.
From the earliest hours of the morning to the close of each day, Dad carried God not as a habit, but as a heartbeat. His devotion was not reserved for Sundays or seasons of need it was woven into the very fabric of who he was. Those who knew him closely knew that before the world stirred, he had already been on his knees, lifting his family, his friends, and his community before the throne of grace. His prayers were not whispered out of routine; they were declarations of a man who had walked with God long enough to trust Him completely.
His faith was his foundation and his legacy. In moments of uncertainty, he pointed to God. In moments of celebration, he gave glory to God. He taught those he loved not merely with words, but with the example of a life fully surrendered that a man's greatest achievement is not what he builds with his hands, but what he builds in eternity.
Dad, you have fought the good fight. You have finished the race. You have kept the faith. And though our hearts ache with the weight of your absence, we find comfort in knowing that you are not lost to us, you have simply gone ahead into the arms of the Father you served so faithfully.
Your voice may no longer fill our rooms, but your prayers still cover us. Your name will forever be spoken with honour, with love, and with gratitude for the man you were, the father you were, and the faithful servant of God you remained until your very last breath.
Rest in the Lord you loved so well, Dad until we meet again.
Deeply missed, Eternally remembered.
