THE PASSING OF A NIGERIAN CAESAR

These are only some of my immediate and still vibrant reactions to the sudden and least expected news of the Transition of My Oldest Friend, Classmate, Teasemate and Superior Wordsmith who always called a hoe a hoe and not a cutlass or digger!

He is the Chief the Hon. Dr. Sunday Bolorunduro Awoniyi, B.A. (Lond) D.Litt. Honoris causa (University of Ilorin); CON; ipc, the Aro of Mopa, Fiwajoye of Iyamoye and Jagunmolu of Igbagun and an Officer of the National Order of Merit of France.

Chief Awoniyi who passed into Transmission at 75 in the Current Cycle of Life Eternal is/was a single personality Rope woven with seven strings to reflect:

1) A true Patriot Nationalist
2)An Arewa Bridge Builder
3) Member of the Elite Class of Super Permanent Secretaries
4)Astute Post Retirement Businessman
5) A Versatile Politician
6) A Statesman at the Upper Level
7) My Theatrical Colleague for the End of Year Middle School, Okene (now Abdul Aziz College) Party: ADETORO Play Wonder!

LIFE’S SPIRITUAL CARAVANSERAI

What is this life?
It is a Caravanserai that
Do Not Make A Return Journey?
Or is it a Life Long Commissioned Program
It is that N.R.T.C.
Which is NO RETURN TRIP!
The Caravanseries to ELYSIUM
The Land of Eternal Illusion
The Death Experience is one which all creatures must undergo
Death is only a Transition
Between One Kind and level and other essential Epigenesis
Eternal Cyclic Experience for All Classes of God’s Creation
An Experience for Development as Death is a Misnomer. Eternal life is
GOD in MAN, NATURE, SPACE AND TIME
All Life is a Sequential Experience of Change – Sowing and Reaping
We are all being with the Creator’s Thought which is vibrated as Sound
Converted into Light of the WORLD. The Word of God’s First Command.
‘Let there be light! And there was light and the light was good.
