Posted on June 8, 2026

Time flies, but a good legacy stands the test of time. Today marks exactly eleven years since the remarkable Late Alhaja Chief Sikirat Atinuke Atobajaiye-Olabanji (fondly known as Atobajaiye Majayalolo) passed away in 2015, yet her memory remains as bright as ever.

 

She was a guiding light and beacon of hope to everyone . She the proud mother of Aareebinrin Hon. Princess Dr. Folashade Olabanji-Oba. In the political arena, she was known as a rock-solid and devoted supporter of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR. being a close confidant of Alhaja Abibat Mogaji, Iyaloja General of blessed memories.

 

Alhaja Sikirat was a woman deeply rooted in her faith and a true pillar of the Muslim community. She wore many hats in her lifetime, dedicating herself to Islamic practices and stepping up to lead.

 

Some of her most notable roles included:

Iya Sunnah General of Nigeria

Beyond her faith and politics, she was a philanthropist with a heart of gold. She didn’t just talk the talk; she walked the walk by actively lifting others up. She made it her life’s mission to lend a helping hand to the vulnerable and focused heavily on capacity building—teaching people how to fish so they could feed themselves for a lifetime.

“May Almighty Allah forgive her shortcomings, accept her good deeds, and continue to protect her soul. Ameen.”

Though she is no longer with us, the seeds of kindness she planted continue to grow. Rest in Love , power and perfect peace, Late Alhaja Chief Sikirat Atinuke Atobajaiye-Olabanji
