Nigeria's Oldest Citizen in the Uk passes on

Pa Gabriel Lemoshe, Nigeria's oldest citizen living in the Uk is dead, he was 2 two months shy of clocking 100.

Organizers of his birthday now plan to hold a celebration of his life on March 15 instead of a birthday party which was supposed to be on same date. The Abeokuta-born Pa Lemoshe was one of the founding members of his native Egba United Society (EUS) in the UK.

Traditionally, the Queen of England writes a personal congratulatory letter to anyone who clocks 100 in the UK and Pa Lemoshe was on course to become the first Nigerian to receive such a letter but he unfortunately passed on. A life well spent. May his soul rest in peace, Amen.
