Matawal Dauda Mafwil: One Death, too many

Image
By Engr. Dr. Isaac Kolo The sad news of the sudden death of Engr Matawal Dauda Mafwil, the Plateau State RAAMP Project Coordinator, got to many as a rude shock. Indeed, life is about memories! The memories of things shared, proposed, and yet to be accomplished.  No doubt, the modest memory of late Engr. Matawal Dauda Mafwil will endure, and his example stands out in terms of his great accomplishments in the RAAMP project, which he heads, and most especially, in the life of others. I am personally pained that a friend, brother, and fellow project coordinator left this earthly prison house and transited to the great beyond. At a time, his fatherly leadership, love, and wisdom are still needed. Little wonder, Thomas Campbell says, and he is right that “to live in the hearts of those we love is not to die”.  His memories of modest lifestyle and modest human relations will continue to inspire through his work, the hearts of many, and his unrelenting devotion to those ar...

Baba buredi: Remembering Elder Matthew Ayinla

Image
By Ishola Gbenga NIPR First and foremost, I have decided to avoid any temptation of going into details of how the popularly name, "Baba Buredi Osere came to existence from decades. I do not have that liberty. That notwithstanding, haven known late Elder Matthew Ayinla for more than 16 years, and that doesn't mean I can lay claim to have been that close to him, I decided only to take it upon myself as an obligation to pen this tribute for him, which he, ordinarily would not request for during his lifetime but, which one is convinced he deserves now, and in years to come. In many ways, Elder Matthew Ayinla’s journey is one of quiet strength, of a man who balances the demands of his career with an unshakeable devotion to God and his family. Even in the face of immense challenges of life, he continues to find joy in life, sharing his trademark smile with those around him. His story is not just about surviving but thriving amidst adversity, embodying a rare combination ...
