In Loving Memory of Kite Yekovie

It is with heavy hearts that we remember and pay tribute to our beloved sister, Kite Yekovie. A beacon of warmth, Kite touched our lives with her kindness, honesty, and infectious joviality. Despite her quiet demeanor, she possessed a deep intelligence, often surprising those around her with her astute observations and insights. As a lawyer, she upheld the highest standards of her profession, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to justice and truth.

Kite was on the verge of charting a new course in her career. She recognized the transformative potential of IT and was eager to delve into Project management, all the while seeking to leverage her invaluable legal experience. This transition, fueled by her visionary spirit, showed her adaptability and her drive to continuously learn and evolve.

Her sudden and untimely departure has left an irreplaceable void in our lives, but we find solace in the beautiful memories she bestowed upon us.

As a valued member of our Scrum Vibes community, Kite always brought positivity into our sessions. Her attentive listening was often punctuated with her signature humorous remarks, adding a touch of lightness to our already eclectic meetings. She effortlessly infused joy into the spirits of those around her with her spontaneous jokes and genuine laughter. Kite rarely missed a session and was a constant feature of the roll call - She was fondly sometimes called "Kite" like a flying kite and jovially took it upon herself to correct the house. Her more subtle membership of the keyboard warriors community will be missed

Kite's legacy lives on in her beautiful daughter, whom we believe she will continue to guide and watch over from the heavens. As we navigate the journey of life without her physical presence, we are reminded to "Carpe Diem" – to seize the day, just as Kite did. She may be out of our sight, but she will forever remain etched in our hearts, encouraging us to cherish every moment and embrace life with grace and gratitude.

Kite, you are deeply missed, and your memories serve as an everlasting testament to a life well-lived.


May her soul rest in peace.

Kite approached me for mentorship not too long ago. Admittedly, our first encounter wasn't without its rough patches. Yet, once we resolved those initial misunderstandings, she blossomed into someone I eagerly anticipated assisting in her transition to the IT world. As fate would have it, just as she took her agreed first step into this new realm, destiny had other designs—taking her from us the very week she was poised to pivot. Her "eager" voice, tinged with that distinctive accent, coupled with her gentle demeanor, is now permanently etched in my memory. The pain of her sudden demise weighs heavily on my soul. While she may no longer be with us, she's secured a lasting place in my heart. And, as long as it's up to me, her name will remain irreplaceable in our weekly roll call. Like I told you, "everything will be fine, you'll be okay" - I guess that's what you're saying to us now.. Fairplay to you! Its all Good, We're Outside Still.. Rest in Power, Kite.

Sometimes you meet good people and you just can't forget them, I know we haven't seen in over 20 years but this news still shock me ,Adolo was a family setting and we all had a bond that's still strong.

I hope your family trust in the fact that you are with God ,looking down and protecting them .
Rip Kite may God give your family the strength to carry on.

Tribute to My Very Dear Big Sister

Days have turn into weeks , yet I can’t comprehend the hurtful fact that you are gone from earth, but why this soon ? Why should death snatch you away without any prior notice to your loved ones?

A valuable part of me has been stolen, O’God help me.

Okiemute my darling sister, this was never your plan , you were supposed to grow old gracefully, enjoy the blessings of your children and grandchildren. Also to enjoy the fruits of your hard work and the fullest of life. Because you were an epitome of life itself - full of Love, Joy and Grace.

However, in your short stay on earth, you stood tall among all adversaries, you remained steadfast to the very end standing for Love,Truth and Justice.Your light will continue to shine in our hearts because you always loved and cared for us.

No Goodbye from me ,Okiemute Yekovie, because I know we will surely meet again. Just rest in the bosom of the Lord.

Your brother
Tega.

I was in Ottawa two weeks earlier before your death for a wedding when I notice you were not there I call you from the venue asking you why you not here that we Warri people are here in numbers for a wedding in your city, you said oh Freeman you know I’m not the party type, you can call me when you’re done and that you don’t mind hosting me for a dinner. Saying this goodbye really hurts as I’m finding it difficult to believe you’re gone. Gone too soon. Rest in Peace. Goodbye Kite

There’s no easy way to put this into perspective but losing a friend is never easy. It’s one of the most painful experiences we can go through in life. The bond we share with our friends is unlike any other, built on trust, laughter, and shared experiences. When that bond is suddenly broken by death, it leaves a void that cannot be filled.

The pain of losing you is immense, but the love and friendship we shared will never fade.

You are deeply missed.

What can I say? The news of your passing was shocking. All I could remember was how we first met as kids when I came around your home for after school lessons, you were just a beautiful special kid at the time. How we watched each other grow over the years, the times we spent when you first came out of law school, the conversations we had about law when I used to come to your law firm on my visits to Nigeria, how determined, motivated you were. I have known you for over 30 years like a sister. I always appreciated you and took it for granted you will always be there. Last I saw you was at your dads funeral but we kept on talking from time to time.

Rest in peace dear friend and may God comfort those you left behind. You were just a beautiful soul. Life….

The ABC of Kite Yekovie

Kite was a whole vibe. A force that you could not ignore. She knew exactly what she wanted and worked hard to get it. She loved her family dearly, her siblings and especially her parents. I remember Kite called me early this year, crying saying she missed her Dad. I didn't know what to say, i just comforted her. She said "Una wen still get mama and papa, take care of them o".

Kite was:
- Attentive: She listened quietly and advised you objectively.
- Bold: That 'gorimapa' hairstyle shock me o but only you could have pulled it off without batting an earlid.
- Caring: It showed in everything she did and with everyone she met.
- Decisive: Once she took a decision, she ran with it.
- Excellent: She had that excellent spirit, wanting to do everything well and with class.
- Fine Girl: Her endearing smile says it all.
- Good Heart: Oh she so had a good heart for people, prompting and encouraging you about life issues even when you didn't want to deal with.
- Honest: Kite was a straight arrow, shooting from the hips. She tells you as it is, whether you like it or not. She would say 'I don talk am, you no fit beat me'.

I could go on and on. Hmmm Kite the matchmaker, she was a lot of things to a lot of people. She left an impression on you. She was the only person i knew in Uny that ate 6 big pieces of meat with one meal. She felt eating 1 or 2 pieces of meat was equivalent to suffering.

Na wa o Kite, this one wound us but we submit to the will of God. We miss you dearly.

Rest in Power Sis. May your memory remain fresh and evergreen in our hearts and minds. Amen.

My dear sister, it's being very hard for me to comprehend this news. I sit and see you smiling at us.
I can recall when I gave birth to my daughter and you came visiting, you told Edeki come to the house and pick up few things for your daughter, on getting to the house, it was a whole box of clothing.
My sister rest in the bosom of the Lord.
Will forever love and cherish your kind heartedness to humanity.
Sleep on my sister.

It feels surreal being here right now trying to put my feelings to words.

Only God knows why sis, I will miss you my big sis and colleague, keep resting in power. Love always.

Kite my darling friend and sister…. It is really tough writing a tribute to you, considering the fact that we spoke barely 8 hours before your passing….but I know it would be a disservice to not write..
Ours, was a friendship that blossomed into family, you were my very first roommate back in the university… very neat, meticulous and loved to dress well! My shakara girl!!! we argued and made up as sisters and never bore grudges. “ vona!!! I no get time!!! I don tell you my mind !!!”
We were both blunt and honest with each other and told ourselves home truths wether sweet or bitter, no sugar coating.
You were a friend who was not afraid to call anyone out and genuinely cared.
You were a mix of no-nonesense and real love ( there were no fake zones with Okiemutini) You loved your family and always wanted togetherness, upholding your father’s legacy.
We spoke on Sunday and you greeted me with a very boisterous Akpo Vee!!! My friend!!! We gisted, we laughed, I promised to visit UZ and your daughter the next time I’m in London. I teased you my girl INDIRA!!! I can only imagine the look on your face when you heard that name…I had no inkling it was going to be my last banter and promise to you. If I did, I would have spoken to you the whole night just to avert this.
The news of your sudden death is a very rude shock to me and I still can’t comprehend it.
I called your number for 3 consecutive days since the news hoping you would pick up but alas, it’s all a wish.
My siblings are in shock and daddy too because you were family to us. The Adolites can’t believe it too.
Okiemute Yekovie.. I could go on and on because I really don’t want to let go…I thought we would all grow till very ripe old age together as friends/family….
With uncontrollable tears in my eyes, grief in my heart, all the reluctance in the world and submission to the will of the Almighty God whom you served … Rest In Peace my dear friend.  you will be sorely missed..

I will miss your beautiful smile and your soft spoken voice. You will be surely missed my dear sister, my prayers are with your daughter and your entire family. May your gentle soul Rest Peace ️️️

Kite was a friendly, jovial and loving person and from our days in University her warm nature remained the same. They day we spoke last, I commented on her WhatsApp and she called me. We spoke for long that day and it appeared as if she knew it would be the last. I wish the news of her passing was a bad dream but sadly its not. I am consoled by the fact that she lived a loving and impactful life and the presence of her beautiful daughter that looks so much like her. Continue to rest in the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ dear Kite, I miss you!

I am so sad to hear of your sudden passing, Kite. Our encounter on this side was very brief but indeed a privilege.

You had an unwavering spirit and passion, which came through when you spoke with such a vibrant voice. I’m positive these translate to how you lived.

Your name and presence always made a difference in our community, and we will always be grateful for the moments we shared with you. My thoughts and prayers are with your little girl and family.

You will be greatly missed, but your memory will remain with us.

Rest peacefully, dear Scrum Viber.
