The news of the death of our dear Mama, Olori Waleade Babayemi was received with trepidation and shock. Mama was the first Olori Olufi to any Kabiyesi in Gbonganland to have been a university graduate and a PHD holder. Mama exuded love, compassion, royalty and passion that transcended her time.
She was a devoted Christian, a true woman of God, a quintessential mother, a virtuous mother with integrity and compassion for everyone that came her way. Mama was a strong pillar of love to her husband, late Oba Dr Solomon Babayemi and to her entire family.
Our dear mama, our affectionate Olori, you came, you saw, you shared, you nurtured, you gave, you loved, you cared, you sacrificed and you conquered. Mama lived a good life and she was an exemplary mother of all in Gbonganland and beyond.
Mama Olori Waleade was an epitome of good character, and love that had no boundaries and her rivers of humanity and love flowed to everyone irrespective of their relationships with mama.
Her smiles and laughter were soothing and encouraging. What a wonderful and amiable mother she was. Mama’s good hearted prayers and overwhelming show of love will forever remain with us. Mama Olori was such a beautiful soul, an angel of blessings and love to everyone.
Rest on Mama wa, sleep well our dear Olori Agba. Till we meet to part no more in paradise At Jesus’s feet. May the good Lord grant mama eternal rest and comfort all her children, grand children, great grandchildren, the Akinrinola’s family and the entire Gbonganland with fortitude to bear the irreplaceable and irreparable loss. Adieu Mama.
