I have not been myself since I came this site yesterday. I am yet to come to terms with this discovery. T inu was my secondary school class mate. We entered Form One together with the others in 1966. We got along very well, very accommodating and resourceful. We all drifted away to our different ways but we see occasionally in Lagos. Once in a while I ask after her when I saw her brother, late Dr. Ogunbanke. Only late last year I saw her nephew, Wale OGunbanke and I also asked after her hoping that I will have the opportunity to say hello soon. This is never going to be. I pray that almighty God will console all the children and members of the immediate and extended family. Let all of us take consolation in the fact that it is not how long but how well. This is still like a dream to me. May her gentle and honest soul rest in peace. Jimo Abiodun Ibikunle

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
