The remains of Adesola Ogunmefun and Olufunmilayo Odusina, two University of Lagos post-graduate students who drowned and died during one of their friend’s birthday party at Elegushi beachi on the 6th day of June 2016, were buried yesterday the 10th day of June 2016 at the Ikoyi cemetery Lagos state.
Pastor Biodun Alimi, during the funeral programme said “But we do not want you to be uninformed brothers about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. Therefore, mourn not, cry not, grieve not; but rather give thanks to God for the life lived.”
Despite the speech, family members and friends of the two young women wept bitterly while paying their last respect.
Sunmibola Ogunmefun, a sibling to the late Adesola, said:
“Very simplistic, you’ve never been the kind to take things too seriously and your smile is from ear to ear. Keeping malice with you was futile, you’d always find a way to break the ice…never one to hold grudge”
“Sola, in your short years on earth, you’ve connected us with so many people and your death has brought reconciliation…you are indeed a special one,” she said while paying homage to her late sister”
May they rest in peace, Amen.
