A delegation from the National Institute for Cultural Orientation (NICO), made up of Management and staff of NICO Training School, paid condolence visits to two pioneer lecturers of the Training School, who were recently bereaved of their loved ones.
Head of the delegation and Director, Training School, Mrs. Brigitte Yerima, in her address at the home of Dr. Taiwo Olunlade, one of the bereaved lecturers, said, “As a friend of the Institute, we commiserate with you and pray that God will grant you the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss. At this auspicious period, God shall strengthen you and your family and fill the vacuum created by the departed soul.”
Olunlade, who teaches the course, “Language and Culture,” at the Training School, lost his dear wife, Mrs. Morounmubo Ikeolu Olunlade, aged 53, after a brief illness; she has since been buried in Ede, Osun State, and they are survived by four children.
