TOO BAD! BUT SUCH IS life. This man could pass as Dangote’s elder brother; they so much look alike.

Akin was a very good man, with a very good heart, I first met him over thirty years ago, he was the same ebulent person I met back then, and when I last saw him, bubbly all the time, despite his very high IQ.
I am not sure of why some comments on this forum trivialized his passing, you should have known the man called Akin Adesokan, I remember clearly the first day we met in Ifako Gbagada, he was then living across the road from me, but he made sure that we became friends, all he cared about is the human spirit.
Sun re O! Akin my namesake, my good buddy, you are a very erudite man, gifted from heaven, and a sagacious fellow from a very good pedigree, adieu my friend.

Uncle Desho, you have touched some many lives. You inspired us in different ways that not matter what, we can achieve great things and we should always aspire for great things.
May your soul rest in perfect peace.
