 Life is usually about donation, not duration, and those who boast of the fact that they've been in a position and occupying space, they have no value to the status quo. These were the words of Venerable Tunde Oduwale during service of songs held in honor of Major General Victor Babatope held at the CMS Grammar School, plus TV correspondent Love Ikuku Oyedokon tells us more in this story. Is not just another church service, but a gathering of old grammarians of CMS Grammar School, Bariga. They are here at the service of songs for the late Major General Victor Babatope Williams, retired to pay their last respect. Was sold them and full of sobriety with beautiful renditions from the choir. In a short exhortation, the Venerable Tunde Oduwale, an old boy and former principal of the school, stressed the need for humans to lead lives of service and make a difference in society. He described the late Major General Williams as an extraordinary individual who stopped low to conquer. He was a mild friend who enjoyed himself. At some age, he was a smith who lived his own family life. He never was a needy, but he can, he can change if you try to put him in the right house. For all the children, it is most wonderful to be fathered by late Major General Victor Babatope Williams, retired. They are thankful to God for an impactful life lived by their late dad. All the great things I go and help him to achieve. I just want to say thank God for the life he was sent down. Every one of us seems to be a wonderful legacy because he has impacted the most in one way and that's why we're here to honor him with his last respects. He was a man of great talent, great honor. A man who taught us to remember whose children we were. He so much had devotion for all children having academic studies. He was a man that gave all he had. So we thought that his children were okay. He would stop at nothing just to make sure that they would smile on our faces. Tributes poured freely from old grammarians, trustees, patrons, presidents, both past and present, family members, friends and close associates also paid their last respect. A very humble person, very approachable, very friendly and very unassuming. If you met him, you would never know he was a soldier. The first thing you'll notice about him is that he's a peaceful man, hard and man of attraction. This is the basic thing about grammarians. Wherever we go, we stand out as friendly people and he had it represented us well. Very generous and very passionate about the school. I think he brought to bear on us the military training. No excuse for anything. There is no excuse for general williness. When we got to build the capo, it was the chairman of the capo committee. We were able to do the capo within one and a half years. The capo was there in the school and that is to his eternal credit. No doubt, the sad and painful demands of late general Victor Babatokma Williams might have left are difficult to fill vacuum, not just in the lives of family members, but also everyone who's met him, especially the old grammarians. Major general Victor Babatokma Williams slept in the Lord on Thursday, 21st September 2023. He was aged 78. Love Ikuku Uiedokon, Plus TV News.
