A one-year memorial service in honour of Mrs. Modupe Temitope Dada, wife of Mr. Mike Dada, President and Executive Producer of All Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA), will be held on Sunday, October 19, at Grace Assembly Church, Oregun-Ikeja, Lagos, from 12 noon to 1pm.
The event will be a day of reflection, worship and gratitude, bringing together family, friends and well-wishers, to celebrate the life and legacy of a woman fondly remembered as ‘kindness personified.’ The memorial will capture the bitter-sweet emotions of loved ones still coming to terms with the loss of a remarkable woman, whose warmth, kindness, grace and quiet strength touched many lives.
In an invitation shared with friends and associates, Mr. Dada, who also serves as Managing Director of PRM Africa Marketing and Communications, expressed deep appreciation for the outpouring of love and support his family has received over the past one year.
“It’s been a year since my beloved wife, Modupe, went to be with the Lord. You are warmly invited as we worship, remember and give thanks for her inspiring life,” he wrote.
For many, the memory of that somber Saturday, October 19, 2024, remains vivid; the day news broke that Mrs Dada had passed on at a private hospital in Lagos after a brief illness. She was aged 48.
Until her passing, Mrs Dada, a committed banking professional, served with distinction at various banks in Nigeria, where she had earned a well-deserved promotion and respect for super performance, a testament to her diligence, excellence and unwavering commitment to her profession.
The memorial service on Sunday scheduled to be superintended by Reverend Femi Paul, will not only honour her memory but also celebrate her enduring legacy of faith, compassion, friendship and genuine love; virtues that continue to inspire those she left behind.
