The family head spoke on Monday while receiving the St. Charles Grammar School, Osogbo, Old Boys Association, who paid a condolence visit to the Lagbaja family house in Ibadan on Monday.

He said that the family expected that their late son would, after serving his tenure, retire to enjoy the fruit of his labour.

 

Lagbaja said the family had submitted to the will of God following the incident,  saying that “some tears will never dry.”

He noted that the late Chief of Army Staff had all his active years in the military, having completed his A-level at the Polytechnic.

 

“That was our wish, which never came. What happened has happened. We have to submit to the will of God, but we are very proud of our son, for he made us proud. All we can wish him is to rest in peace,” Lagbaja said.

The head of the Lagbaja family appreciated the association for the visit, adding that their late son had been well spoken of since his demise.

Omopo eulogised the deceased, saying he had done well for the school and was a proud and financial member until he passed on

“He was building a very standard project of about N550m for the school, which is about 80 per cent completion.

“When we heard the news, it was very shocking for all of us both in Nigeria and the diaspora, hence the decision to pay a condolences visit to the family,” he said.
