Daddy....I Love You


The Ever Fun Loving Father!



Mr Ganiyu Dawodu! We Love You!
The Serious Man! The Breadwinner!

 Sweet Father, I no go forget you for the suffer whey you suffer for me eh!
The Respected Man!
                                      Last December I Lost my dad. If you stay in Nigeria and you read the news regularly you may have heard or read it being broadcasted on the news. You probably heard all the false rumors about the police man dieing because he was having sex with a south African woman or a Police woman from ph but obviously I refuse to believe and it really pisses me off that some people would want to add spice to my father's death.
               Anyways I don't really want to write/speak about the event. It was basically a life-changing experience. Nothing like that has ever happened to me before and you just never believe that it would happen.
  
         I think about you every single day daddy and I'll always be your little girl. I promise to embrace my role as your first child and be the glue that holds everyone together irrespective of our mothers and I'll try and do things the way I know you would want it. Funny how we used to fight about the way things should be done now am begging for you to come back so that I can do things just the way you like it.
The Superior Officer
         I've always wanted to be a success story for you and I promise that won't change daddy. I will always love you and I'll never stop. I hope your watching me from heaven and I hope your guiding me from up there. I know I'll make some mistakes but please stay tuned to my life and watch the way I'll turn out.
The Semi - Religious Man
         I've met your last child by the way. My little baby Olamide. She is really cute and I need you to know that I am not angry with you for anything. I love you. I always have. I always will.

P.S You were my role model and you still inspire me and you really touched the souls of many.
The Socialite!

    1. I am so sorry for your loss too. some people feel as though 8 is too young for you to remember. infact i used to think that until my junior brother told me at that age that he knows what is going on and he misses our dad so much...brought tears to my eyes
