Obituary

Chief Mrs. Yetunde Obasola Olojo, a beacon of grace and wisdom, was born on April 10, 1943, in Ilorin. She entered this world embraced by the warmth of the Fadahunsi and Apantaku families. Her father, the late Sir Joseph Odeleye Fadahunsi was a reputable businessman, a seasoned politician, a Knight of the British Empire and the last civilian Governor of the Western Region of Nigeria. He imparted wisdom and integrity in her. Her mother, the late Subuola Fadahunsi (nee Apantaku), an entrepreneur and a businesswoman in her own right, filled her life with boundless love. Raised by her grandmother, Madam Elizabeth Oyehunmi Apantaku (Iya mi), she was pampered yet nurtured with kindness and gentleness from a young age.

Education

Her educational journey began at St. Barnabas School, Ilorin, in 1949, where she displayed promise early on and a love for Shakespeare. While in Standard two, she joined her seniors to stage a play with dancing and she was awarded the book “The Merchant of Venice”.

Her secondary schooling at Methodist High School, Ilesha, instilled in her the values of independence, self-reliance, and resilience. She furthered her education at Olunloyo College of Education, Ibadan, and the University of Lagos, solidifying her commitment to lifelong learning.

Work

Armed with her National Certificate in Education, she embarked on a distinguished 33-year teaching career.

Her leadership as the founding Principal of Ijero Girls High School, Ebute-Metta, later at Western College, Yaba, and Eletu Odibo High School, Abule Oja showcased her love and passion for imparting knowledge. Her pursuit of excellence led her to attend the University of Manchester in 1985 to enhance her teaching skills. She retired as a Director of Education in 1999.

Marriage and Family Life

On September 28, 1968, she married her beloved childhood companion, Chief Tunde Olojo. Their union blossomed into a family filled with love, warmth, and enduring friendships, spanning generations and creating cherished memories. The marriage is blessed with four children and eight grandchildren who were the joy of her life. Her bond with both the Fadahunsi and Olojo families was unbreakable.

Christian Life

A devout Methodist, her faith was her foundation. At an early age, she embarked on a spiritual journey marked by unwavering devotion. Chief Mrs. Yetunde Obasola Olojo was a pioneering member of the Methodist Church, Ilorin and was also a member of the choir. She later joined the Methodist Church Otapete in Ilesha where she had her wedding in September of 1968. In Lagos, she attended the Methodist Church, Folawiyo, Surulere.

Then, in 1974, she joined the congregation of the Methodist Church of Nigeria, Ijeshatedo, Lagos, where she served with distinction, leaving a lasting impact as an integral member of Ifelodun Society and Matron of the Rising Star Society until her transition to Glory. She also served the Lagos Mainland Diocese as a representative member of the Lagos Schools Education Management Board, inaugurated in June 2006.

Legacy

Chief Mrs. Yetunde Obasola Olojo's life was a tapestry woven with love, laughter, and an unwavering commitment to education and faith. She was a member of Ijesha Olive Club, and Sweet Mothers of Ilesa. Her legacy lives on through the countless lives she touched and the hearts she enriched.

I didn't know mama, but her son, Kayode, was my colleague. In fact, I was his best man at his wedding. Kayode is a decent and humble man. As such, mama and her husband, who trained him, are worthy of commendation. I celebrate you, mama, for a job well done.

Have an eternal bliss with Jesus.

Grandma was a very kind woman whose soul was gentle, her heart so wise and her spirit so sweet. This was a woman i loved greeting because of the warm embrace she would give me every time I saw her. Your passing struck me like a sword through my heart. I just wish I could have hugged you one last time. Nevertheless, death is a part of life and God's timing is always the best. Wherever you are, I know you are in a better place and I am thankful to have called you grandmother.

Took me awhile to accept the reality that Grandma and Mother , Chief (Mrs) Olojo is now with the Lord Jesus Christ. Have come to terms.
Very considerate personality and caring to my family as well.
It just dawned on me after not hearing your chats with *Funlo* again.
Continue to Triumph in your new Home.

I got to know recently that Yetunde died on 9th June,this year. I went bitterly and became devastated. All along, I was taking the bad news as fake and praying that it would not be true. However, just this past week, someone sent me a tribute containing her burial arrangement and a photograph of her very beautiful face The truth dawned on me and I wept bitterly once again recollecting how we started our friendship/ association of almost seven decades with effect from December, 1956 at Ilorin. Ever since a week ago, I continue to repeat 1 Corinthians 15 verse 55 -O death,where is thy sting ? O grave, where is thy victory ? Yetunde was loving throughout and was always happy about my progress in life. I equally loved her with passion throughout. Like all her nuclear family members, her relations, other friends and well wishers, I will miss her until we meet again at the feet of our Lord Jesus Christ. Painfully, my relations, close friends from my Secondary School era will now stop to say " Yetunde nko, Alukson ? " But as a Christian, I take solace in the fact that Yetunde "s Maker has taken her away. And I pray that may her soul continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord until the Resurrection day when by the grace of God, we shall meet to part no more. E ku iroju. E ku asehinde. May the Lord give her husband, children, seeds, relations, friends and well wishers the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss, in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ. Amen Ojo a jinna sira, l'Oruko Jesu Amin.

It is with heavy heart that the Presbyter and the entire Members of Sir Odeleye Fadahunsi Memorial Methodist Church, Imo Circuit, Ilesa, received the shocking news on the demise of your wife and daughter, Chief (Mrs.) Yetunde Obasola Olojo (Ne Fadahunsi), who joined the Church Triumphant at this time on 9th June 2024.

The loss of our dear Sister is one of the most difficult things someone can go through. Her death, no doubt has created a vacuum in your families and the Church of God. It is our prayer that God Himself will fill it.
Mama Olojo had been a source of support to "Women Fellowship MCN" Imo Circuit and the Church. We are aware of her valuable contributions to the growth of our church. It is our hope that the burden of loss would be lightened somewhat by the knowledge that
your colleagues and friends are with your families in this difficult time.

May God grant her soul eternal rest, Amen.

TRIBUTE TO CHIEF(MRS) YETUNDE OLOJO

Words are inadequate to express my shock when I heard Yetunde's death.
Actually, I was with her on Thursday before her death on Sunday. We discussed a lot about challenges of life in the present economic situation in Nigeria generally.
Myself and Yetunde have been together for over 60 years. A very reliable and trustworthy friend. She has touched so many lives through her generous disposition. When I lose my husband six (6) years ago, she stood with me physically, spiritually, emotionally and financially through my mourning period.
Yetunde fought a good fight, she has finished her course and she has kept her faith. May her loving soul rest in perfect peace


To the family of Tunde Olojo and children
2 Timothy 4:18: "and the Lord shall deliver you from every evil work, and preserve you unto his health kingdom to whom be glory for ever and every.
Almighty God will give the strength and energy to heal this great loss. Holy ghost will be your comforter amen

Late Chief (Mrs.) Yetunde Olojo was not just my aunt but a constant figure in my life from the earliest days of my childhood. Many will recall her for her warmth, care, love and kindness but for me, her most profound impact was on my education. Being a principal, she ensured that Yemi and I had the best of tutorials from our Form 1 days in St. Finbarr’s College to St. Gregory’s College where she withdrew us from the boarding house so we could attend Mainland Tutors for SSCE and Offshore Tutors for Jamb.

Fast forward to my University of Ibadan days, the only time my mother (Late Mrs. Arinola Dada) visited me in school was because she - Late Chief (Mrs.) Yetunde Olojo insisted that both of them must know where I stayed. I tried to convince her to drop me at Iwo Road, but she didn’t budge. I took them through rough roads just to frustrate her, but she still didn’t back down. I believe she knew I didn’t want them to know where I stayed because of surprise visits so she said even if they had to park the car and walk, they must get to my house. At that point I gave up until we got to my off-campus apartment in Bodija. Thank God, my friends left the house in order but left cobwebs which she saw immediately she entered. Till today, if there are cobwebs even in the most hidden places, I will see it.

I may feel a deep sense of loss with her passing, but her legacy lives on in the love of learning she ignited within me. Thank you for being my champion of learning and for the mother’s love you showed my family. Sleep well mummy.

TRIBUTE TO A WONDERFUL , UNFORGETABLE FRIEND/SISTER ‐ MRS. YETUNDE OLOJO.
..
Precisely, on̈ the 20th September 1982, we met at the Lagos State School Management Office in Igbobi College Compound to see the Secretary of the S.M.C. in charge of our Schols in the Mainland.
We had both been made Pioneering Principals of the new Secondary Schools derogatory called 'Poultry Sheds'.
The myriad of problems we encountered were virtually the same . We talked very often, seeking solutions to our 'twin' problems thereby becoming earthly 'twin' sisters.
Our names rang in our different homes as we carried over our problem solving discussions to the house, depriving others of the use of the landline phone then.
We had been together since then as our sister's keeper in all things.
Despite all constraints, she visited me in April to bid me farewell as I was going to be away from home for some months.
''Then, my text messages were not responded to. While I kept wondering what happened, the shattering news came to me, she passed on.
I had no premonition that was her last visit to me.
She was a loving, soft spoken, caring woman of Inestimable Value.
My children are greatly saddened of her death.
I now understand clearly William Shakespeare in saying ' Life is a tale told by an Idiot signifying nothing'.
You lived well and died well, my sister. There is laid for you, a crown in Heaven.
ADIEU! TILL WE MEET IN HEAVEN.

Tribute to a Caring and Loving Sister

My dearest sister,

The news of your sudden departure to glory in the early hours of Sunday 9th of June 2024 caught us all unawares. I was shocked, devastated, and in total disbelief, but was also full of praises to God Almighty.You were not ill for a second,hence very unexpected. It was a peaceful exit, just like our maternal grandmother, our father, and our mother.

I miss you, my confidant, my pathfinder, my mentor, sister, and friend. Ifeoluwa and the children all miss you deeply, but take solace in your motherly affection and love for God.
We wish you eternal rest in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Your love and care were a beacon of light in our lives, guiding us through every challenge and celebrating every joy. Your memory will continue to inspire us and your spirit will always be a part of us. We will forever cherish the moments we shared and the love you so generously gave.

Rest in peace, dear sister. You will always be in our hearts.

With love and eternal remembrance,

Tunde and Ife Fadahunsi

Grandma
Mayok… the sweet melody of your voice calling my name echoes through the chambers of my heart. Your love was a warm, embracing sunbeam that painted my world with tone of joy and security. The cherished poster of my first birthday, proudly displayed on your door, was a testament to the endless love you showered upon me from the dawn of my life.
Every year, without fail, your voice would be the first to ring with birthday wishes, a flood of affection that washed over me like a gentle tide. You celebrated every milestone, every victory, as if they were your own. Your heart, a boundless ocean of love, cradled me as a child and guided me as I blossomed into an adult. You nurtured me with a mother’s devotion, shaping me into the person I am today.
I cherish the memory of our last long conversation, because it was filled with anticipation and excitement. Returning from the film set, I shared the news of “Ajosepo” hitting the cinemas on your birthday. Your eyes lit up, you were almost dancing, a radiant reflection of your pride. “Ama we gele ati aso ebi lo wo film e o” – the promise of a shared celebration, was a testament to your endless belief in me. You were my fiercest supporter, always rooting for my success.
Countless nights, as I poured over film projects, your home was my sanctuary. You welcomed my friends with open arms, your laughter and warmth creating an atmosphere of comfort and belonging. In those moments, you were more than a grandmother; you were a confidante, a cheerleader, a beacon of love.
The weight of carrying you in my arms for the last time is a burden I bear with a heavy heart. The silence that replaced your vibrant spirit is a void that aches to be filled. I yearn for the days when your words were a comforting lullaby, a source of wisdom and encouragement.
Grandma, you were a gift, not only to me but to all who were fortunate enough to know you. Your legacy lives on in the love we carry for you. I will cherish your memory forever.
With eternal love, Your grandson, Tosin Mayokun Jones

TRIBUTE TO AN IRON LADY

Mama Lolade's death came to me as a rude shock coming barely a month after paying a felicitation visit to my brother in Lagos on his natal day. On the day in question she was in high spirits with no hint of any illness. She looked very healthy and full of life. Three days after she called to express appreciation for my visit.
Mama Lolly as I usually called her was a no nonsense lady who did not have time for frivolity. Her love for her husband was exemplary. She guarded my over generous brother like a mother hen would guard her chicks against predators. She died the death of a saint. While sincerely commiserating with my brother and the children left behind I pray that her great soul will find rest in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ amen.

Ruminating on what/how to pay a tribute,all that came to my mind were the wonderful memories of the time spent write you and your family as a youngster.
I remember traveling to Lagos with my step mother - the late mama Subuola fadahunsi in the early 70s in the company of BK and Lara to your house at Godwin Okigbo street, and later Iman shuaib Street at Ijesatedo.
I remember the trips to the Bar Beach,at Marina and Apapa Amusement park with you and the rest of the family and other family members.
I remember the visits to the Dada family home at Lawanson.
I remember the memorable family bus ride from Ilesha to Ifaki Ekiti in honor of the family head on the conferment of knighthood on him by the Methodist Church of Nigeria on the 1st of October,2022.
I remember the last time we were together at Ilesha for the celebration of our sister 's 80th birthday on the 25th of April,2024. You were full of life in the company of your beloved husband and other family members without any form of weakness or illness whatsoever, only to hear the news of your passing to the great beyond. But God knows best.
You might no longer be with us,but your memory will forever live with us

Dear Mummy Olojo,
Your love, gentleness, and generosity have been a constant in our family. When our parents returned from the UK, you opened your home to us, ensuring our comfort and stability. We always remember your fondness for our late parents.

We love and appreciate you, and your absence will leave a void in our hearts. Yet, your memories will live on forever.

As Daddy used to say, "Toluwa ni ase" (God's will be done). While we may not understand why, we're grateful to God for blessing you with a life well-lived and the wonderful families you nurtured.

We celebrate your life and the beautiful memories you've left behind. We love you and will miss you always.

Tribute to my sister,
My lovely sister, the 9th of June 2024 has been the saddest day of my life not for your demise but the sudden occurrence like a lightening.

The only consolation I have is that each time we met, it seems your wish and prayer that "Ilorin ma Nso pe Olorun maje ki a se aisan kia to ku" and that to me was what happened to you. I know that wherever your spirit is, will pray for
your lovely husband and children.

I assure myself that we shall meet with the Lord to part no more.

It's just like a dream when your death was announced and it's still unbelievable to me, but the Bible says we should give thanks in all situation. You were a loving and caring mother, extended love to so many people. You never treated me as a stranger or outsider, rather you took me and treated me as a daughter from day one. Our dear mummy, although you've gone but the legacy you left behind will live on forever. I will miss you dearly, I will miss your advice, prayers, the impact and love of a mother to daughter. You have fought the good fight, you have finished the race, you have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:7. Mummy may your soul rest in perfect peace.

An amiable sister and mother you are to me. It was shocking to me that I will write this so soon. Your demise left a great space in my heart, I have become so attached to you that I couldn't even imagine this could happen in years. You were my benefactor, and I am eternally grateful . You were very active in your approach to things. Everything I knew today about the families, I learnt from you, as I would ask you how is this and that person related to us, and you would made it clear.
Thank you for preparing me for life, not tired but always there for me through my studentship sourjourn. You are a lover of your family, always there for everybody.
To say you would be missed is an understatement, but I pray the Lord will grant us the fortitude to bear this great loss. You will forever be in my heart. Thank you for a life well lived, rest on dear mummy until we meet at Jesus's feet to part no more.
Goodnight beloved sister and mother.

Chief Mrs. Yetunde Obasola Olojo, nee Fadahunsi. Well grown and advanced in age but your death is still a rude shock.

The fragile nature of life's path.

She was stylish. (I was her stylist 🙂).
She was my senior colleague. She studied English and I did too.
She was in vogue.
She knew about the new trends.
She cared for my family.
She loved me. No caps!
She loved my family.
She prayed for my children.
She never forgot our birthdays.
She gave me Elubo (yam flour) from the time I married her nephew and I have never had to buy. (Who will give me elubo bayi???😭)

Oh, how I miss you mummy! A true mother in every sense of the word.
Continue to rest in the bosom of your maker.

TRIBUTE TO OUR DEAR AUNTY YETUNDE OLOJO

My siblings & I knew aunty since our primary school days in the 60s in Ibadan through our late mum Mrs Folake Adetowun Olowu.
They met as students at Olunloyo College of Education in 1966.
Our mum was married with children whilst aunty was a spinster then.
Our mum fondly called her "YEYE".

They had a very close bond. This relationship lasted their lifetime and extended to their spouses, as Uncle Tunde Olojo became a younger brother to our late Dad Emmanuel Olajide Olowu.
This bond was further cemented by the fact that both husbands hailed from Ilesa.

I was one of the flower girls at aunty & uncle's wedding in Ilesha in 1968. As they say history repeats itself and Lolade was one my flower girls when I got married in 1984.

It was a rude shock to hear of aunty's sudden call to glory as she had visited us at our family house and also attended our mum's funeral services in February of this year.
Even after our mother's death she was constantly in touch with us.

Aunty will always be deeply appreciated and loved.
She will be sorely missed by us.
May her loving and gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
The Lord comfort Uncle, the children and the entire family.

Tribute to Mrs Yetunde Olojo from The Sweet Mothers.

The news of your death came to us as a rude shock on Sunday 9th of June. We were completely devastated. We asked God why, but can we query Him? He made you and He has taken you back to Himself.
You were such a caring and loving member of this group. Although you were living in Lagos and have been taking care of your sick husband, you nevertheless flowed with us in all decisions taken by the group. We shall surely miss your jokes whenever you were around.
We love you, but God loves you more, our dear sister.
May God console your husband, children and grandchildren and the family at large.
As we believe in the resurrection , we know we shall meet on the last day.
Sleep on our beloved sister in the bosom of The Almighty.
The Sweet Mothers of Ilesa
