As much as I would love, I just cannot divine the reason why you were taken from our midst at this time. The history of humankind, after all, is peppered with instances of people in the prime of their lives being snatched by the cold unfeeling clutch of death and people much smarter than any of us have tried, but failed, to answer the eternal question: Why? Since it is then futile for me to make any sense of this, I will retreat to find solace in more mundane philosophical pursuits such as the soothing saying of the Yoruba people that when a banana tree ties, it is replaced in the natural order by its offspring. Pal, your family – immediate and extended – and we your friends – casual ones and lifelong acquaintance – all mourn you and miss you. That makes you way ahead of uncountable souls who have passed unsung and unwept. Sleep well and happy happy trails, buddy.

Another Vacuum...just too soon!

Hakeem was a Gentleman and an Officer. I could recall his days with the State Security Service (then Nigeria Security Organisation-NSO), he served his country diligently and was never involved in any scandal. And at the appointed time he left the shores of 9ja to the US in search of greener pastures, and today I'm a living witness to success recorded by the man I sometimes refer to as the "Gentle Giant". His gentility is total, I mean from the way he walks, talk and coupled with his captivating smile. A jolly good fellow, a family man, caring father and an epitome of a good husband. Hakeem knows how to make his money work for him, resident in the US with business connection all over 9ja. My man you really paid your dues and reason why it's so painful that at the time to retire and eat the fruit of your labor you took the final bow. It is an understatement that your loved ones will miss you, the fact is the vacuum created by your unexpected and untimely exit will be very difficult to fill. I'll forever miss your love and care towards me and my family. And on behalf of the entire MAJOYEOGBE family I say Goodnight to a great friend and brother. -- Samson Majoyeogbe

Waoooo, O ma se o, Ile nje eniyan. O ti lo sinmi sugbon awon omo, iya ati mama ti o fi sile. Ki olorun wa pelu won. May Almighty Allah continue to guide and protect them.
May Almighty grant them the strength to bear your loss and death. You will be greatly missed Hakeem. I just closed my eyes and see you in that "Khaki short and Khaki Shirt" uniform in the 70,s @ Isolo.
You were a very gentle, respectful and dedicated young man.
Please keep your facebook page on. We shall meet and you will give me your address in "Heaven"
May your soul rest in perfect peace....amen.
