Musa, who prayed that the Almighty God would give the family "the fortitude to bear this great loss," urged them to be consoled by the fact that Dr. Abiodun aka Baba Teacher lived a life worthy of envy, saying that he touched many lives positively.

"There is no doubt that Baba is in the right hand of God Almighty with his good works on the planet earth. We are glad that Baba left a legacy that can never be forgotten and we believe that his life is a good example to many others.

"We just want the family, including our amiable Governor, not to see his death as a loss, but to see his death as a transition to eternal life," he said, adding that Baba would be remembered for all that he did for mankind, especially those who passed through his tutage as a teacher.

The Chairman then advised everyone to see life as transient and to learn a lesson from someone like Dr. Abiodun, who he said lived a selfless life and did his best to ensure that his children were properly trained so that they could become vessels of honour to the state and to the country generally.

Court Sets Aside Arrest, Remand, Wanted Declaration Against Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi

A Magistrate Court sitting in Ogba, Ikeja, Lagos, has set aside its earlier ex-parte order authorizing the arrest, remand, and “wanted” declaration of Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi, also known as Hammed Ajiran. The development follows the earlier declaration of Akanbi as wanted for alleged multiple murder by the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Moshood Olorundare Jimoh, on February 19, 2026. However, in a ruling delivered today, Magistrate L.A. Owolabi of Magistrate Court 3 nullified the ex-parte order initially granted on February 16, 2026. In his decision, Magistrate Owolabi held that the order was obtained through the concealment of material facts. The court specifically noted that the counsel who filed and argued the application, Nosa Watson Uhumwangho, was under suspension by the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee at the time and therefore lacked the right of audience before the court. The ruling sparked jubilation among members of the youth wing of the Ojomu royal family, who...
