Hamzat further described the late Mrs. Ojelabi as an exceptionally caring and loving mother to her children and all those whose lives she positively impacted.
He noted that, during her lifetime, she embodied all the virtues of a good wife and mother.
While expressing shock over her passing, the deputy governor emphasised that it was a divine will that must be accepted, adding that every human comes from God and must return to Him.
He, however, acknowledged that the loss was difficult to bear, as Mrs. Ojelabi was undoubtedly the pillar of her family and a beacon of wisdom and guidance within her community.
He, therefore, prayed that God would comfort the family of the deceased, grant her soul eternal rest, and forgive all her shortcomings.
