Senator Sadiku Abubakar Ohere, FNSE, PhD, the Distinguished Senator representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, has commiserated with the Kogi Finance Commissioner over the passing of his beloved father, Alhaji Asiru Ijagbemi.
In his condolence message, Senator Ohere said, “In life, we are constantly reminded of the fragility of our human existence no moment more so than when we are forced to bid farewell to those who gave us life, guidance, and the unshakable foundation upon which our journey was built”.
“It is with a heavy heart that I, Senator Sadiku Abubakar Ohere, extend my deepest condolences to my dear brother and colleague, the Honourable Commissioner for Finance, Budget, and Economic Planning in Kogi State, Asiwaju Asiru Idris, on the passing of his beloved father, Late Alhaji Asiru Ijagbemi.”
“Alhaji Ijagbemi was not just a father in the biological sense he was a community pillar, a spiritual compass, and a man whose quiet dignity, values, and legacy live on in the children he nurtured and the lives he touched.”
“While death is a certainty we must all accept, its sting is never dulled especially when it takes from us a symbol of wisdom and unwavering love. In this moment of grief, I urge the entire Asiru family to take solace in the fruitful and impactful life their patriarch lived. A man whose legacy is already evident in the person of his son Asiwaju Idris whose integrity, work ethic, and compassion for the people of Kogi are no doubt products of a firm and purposeful upbringing.”
“Let us not mourn as those without hope. Instead, let us celebrate a life well spent in devotion to God, to family, and to humanity. May Allah (SWT), in His infinite mercy, forgive his shortcomings, accept his good deeds, and grant him Aljannatul Firdaus.”
“To my brother, Asiwaju, I say this: in the quiet moments of reflection, remember that your father lives on not only in memory but in every noble act you carry out, every life you uplift, and every prayer you utter in his name.”
“On behalf of myself, my family, and the good people of Kogi Central, I offer you our prayers and our shoulders to lean on during this solemn time. May the soul of Alhaji Asiru Ijagbemi find eternal rest!” Senator Ohere concluded
