I join thousands of others to Celebrate the life, times and Legacy of Professor Kayode Adetugbo.
My first memories of Prof date back to over 4 decades ago.
Uncle kayode as we called him then, was a very good friend and comrade of my dad Prof Omotoye Olorode. My dad loved him dearly and highly respected him.
Uncle kayode later became my teacher in Medical school.
He was simple, open minded, unassuming, soft spoken, sharp and approachable.
He was deeply conscious of social justice and contributed in no small way to the progress of the Ife Branch of ASUU of which he was once President.
I always knew from my interaction with him as a child that he was superlatively intelligent but my perspective changed when he became my professor in Medical School.
He was a deeply dedicated teacher, seasoned scientist and extraordinary researcher.
Somehow he always reminded me of Albert Einstein. It was not surprising to learn that he did a lot of groundbreaking research alongside some nobel laureates in the 1970s.
Prof you have done your part and your legacy endures. I pray that your dear soul will now rest in peace.
I pray that God comforts the entire family and that Professor Kayode Adetugbos Memory will always be a blessing ( Amen).
