ADIEU! CHIEF LATEEF ADEGBITE

The sad news that one of the pillars of Islam in Nigeria, in the person of Dr. Abdulateef Oladimeji Adegbite, the Seriki Musulumi & Baba Adinni of Egbaland came as shock. The 79 years old scholar, who until is death was the Secretary General of the Nigeria Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs passed on Friday night, September 28, 2012. 

According to Alhaji Kamardeen Akintunde, the former Attorney General of the Western Region of Nigeria, died at about 7PM last night at his residence after a brief illness. 

We join many other Nigerians and people all over the world to commiserate with the immediate family of the dearly departed. We also pray that his good soul should rest in peace.  

Born March 10, 1933, in Abeokuta, Ogun State, died September 28, 2012 in Lagos.

    You were such an accomodating man and made my NYSC enjoyable.

  2. Accommodating? BH has lost a member. He never spoke up against them. He hated Christians. RIP all the same.

  4. Yes grew up with them on Adisa Bashua before both families moved to Ikeja. He's okay with people but on a general level he promotes his religion to the T. He's got wonderful children.
