So Touching! Late Temidayo Adeleke’s Fiance Pens Emotional Tribute After She was Murdered by her Cook in Ikoyi

Toluwanimi Osinowo has left a touching tribute for his late fiancee, Temidayo Adeleke, who was brutally murdered by her Cameroonian cook, at her home in Park View Estate in the Ikoyi area of Lagos on the 20th of December 2016.

33-year-old Temidayo, who was buried in Lagos yesterday and Osinowo, were to get married next year February 2017 but unfortunately, her houseboy cut short her life. In an emotional tribute to the woman of his dreams, Osinowo bared his heartbroken soul.

Read the emotional tribute:

”Dayo, you were amazing. I loved you deeply. I miss you.

I felt at home wherever you were. It didn’t matter where, as long as you were there, I felt at home – I was happy. I needed you so much that when we fought (usually my fault), everything paused. The Bible says a man must leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife. We had done the leaving, but the cleaving was not to be.

Baby, you were a better person than me – an answer to a specific prayer. Being with you made me a better man. You were truly a Proverbs 31 woman. A treasure found by an undeserving man. I told you that you were an angel from God to me, and I thank God for sending you into my life. You were the biggest earthly expression of God’s grace (His undeserved, unearned and unmerited favour) in my life.

I don’t pretend to understand why this happened. But I trust that Our God, Our Yahweh Elohim, who rules in the affairs of men let this happen for His reason. Dayo is with her Abba, my Abba, our Abba.”

According to reports, the deceased was stabbed to death during an argument over payment of salary (read here).

Meanwhile, yesterday, the 21-year-old accused appeared before an Ebute Meta Chief Magistrates’ Court for allegedly stabbing his employer. He was arraigned on a one-count charge of murder before Chief Magistrate Oluyemisi Adelaja.

Adelaja ordered that the accused be remanded at the Ikoyi Prisons pending legal advice from the Directorate of Public Prosecution (DPP).

She adjourned the case till February 24.

May God comfort her family and loved ones.
