Tribute to Yemi Bankole

AK Banks, you left too soon, but your quiet strength remains—a whispered breeze in our shared space. Gentle, unassuming, and kind, you lit up days without needing to speak. A flatmate, a course mate, a colleague. A friend to all. Your calm was a refuge; your smile, a gift. In laughter, in silence, you made room for us. Though life cut short your story, memories linger: late-night study sessions, shared meals, jokes lost in translation. Rest easy, Banky. Your peace stays with us.

Tribute to Deji Aloluwaloba

Deji,you were the quiet force that anchored us—a bridge of humility in a world of noise. As a trainee at SITP-1, a colleague, and a proud Ife alumni, you earned respect without seeking it. To me, you were a younger brother, eyes bright with trust. I recall those late-night jacking, your infectious laughter and how you called me _"Big Bro"_ with a grin. We dreamed of your “ascendancy”—of watching you lead, innovate, and leave a mark. Life had other plans. Yet your legacy remains: kindness, loyalty, and the beauty of unfinished potential. The hills of Ile-Ife, the serenity of Edjeba, and these shared memories hold you still. Continue to rest well, Deji. Your light stays with us.

AKBanks, ‘Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. 12 So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep’ (Job 14:1, 12, KJV). ‘And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them (Revelation 14:13, KJV). You were among the persons that welcomed me at Kwara 4 with a smile, I can’t recall the others, when I resumed the Batch 4 training programme as one of last four entries. I would never forget your words that the mutual smile became our point of connection for the years that followed. You lived a life of meaning, as a gentle soul, and I couldn’t imagine the days would be that few. Till we meet again, and I am persuaded, with another smile, then the days would never be few, in fact, never ending, says the Lord. Sleep in Peace, my friend. Abimbola Alamu

Tribute to Deji Aloluwaloba

Deji, Who would ever imagine the journey would be short?! Who would ever think that our time together would quickly pass like a fleeting breath? Who could ever know why our connection quickly reached such a depth? We may never know nor able to imagine., A gentle soul, loving fellow, intelligent and a true leader, your memories are blessed - my friend, my brother, my colleague, my townsman, my family. Deji,, you are remembered always. Meet you at the Master’s feet. - Abimbola Peter Alamu

Tribute to Deji Aloluwaloba

Deji, you wore your ideals and principles on your sleeve and lived them out with passion, and it was clear for all to see - so much so that it impacted people and bore positive fruit well beyond your words. Sad that you left us when you did. Still, I believe you're resting from all your labours now and will in time meet your maker in full glory. Rest on bro!
