Pa Taiwo Adelana

The only surviving sibling of the late Chief (Mrs.) HID Awolowo yesterday visited the Ikenne countryhome and wept inconsolably.
Pa Festus Taiwo Adelana, 94, who was brought into the Efunyela Hall at about 3:20pm on a wheelchair by a relation threw his hands in the air and bit his fingers as he shouted “Ha! Ha! Ha!” with......
tears streaming down his face.
Pa Adelana told journalists that he had been dreaming about the late Awolowo matriarch who died last Saturday, since the past three days.
According to Daily Sun, Pa Adelana who lives in Lagos was only informed about the death of his sister few hours earlier.
He was said to have insisted that he should be taken to Ikenne to “see things” for himself. “She (HID) had always said I would be the one to bury her. Oh, now she’s gone,” he sobbed.
The nonagenarian who was provided a white handkerchief with which he wiped his face, was later assisted by a relation to sign the condolence register.
