The lawmaker representing Kosofe Constituency 2 in the Lagos State House of Assembly, Tunde Braimoh, wrote a poem depicting the vanity of life on June 16, hours after Senator Bayo Osinowo died.
The late Braimoh posted the poem on Facebook, unaware he would be joining the great beyond in less than a month.
“Life is a conundrum. A mirage and a puzzle. A concomitance of the strange and the mysterious. Sometimes comes with so much joy. Sometimes with so much sadness.
“What a world of absurdity? A world of vanity! But in all, we remain thankful. May God have mercy on us. Halt the torrents of sadness. And grant us enduring joy,” he had written.
Braimoh then concluded: “May God grant my dearest Leader and senior brother ; Senator Bayo Osinowo eternal peace.”
The former chairman of Kosofe Local Government died in the early hours of Friday, two months to his 60th birthday.
