In his homage, Seun Oloketuyi, the creator of the BON Awards, emphasized the artist’s “kind and influential demeanor.”

Oloketuyi recognized the profound emptiness created for the family, particularly for Kehinde. He offered heartfelt prayers for solace and strength for those who are mourning.

“Taiwo was not just a twin; he embodied light, voice, and a presence that infused warmth and resilience into the lives of all who were fortunate enough to know him. As one half of the Adegbodu twins, Taiwo shared a remarkable connection that represented unity, affection, and an unbreakable bond. Today, that connection feels distinctly changed, and the emptiness left in its wake is immense,” he expressed.

“The loss of a twin transcends the mere absence of a sibling; it signifies the end of a lifelong bond — a reflection of shared memories, aspirations, and experiences. The departure of Taiwo is profoundly sorrowful, affecting not just his family but also friends, colleagues, and everyone who cherished the unique bond represented by the Adegbodu twins.

In times like these, language often proves inadequate, yet we find solace in knowing that his existence, no matter its duration, was significant and valued.”

“May the Almighty provide strength and solace to his twin sibling, the entire Adegbodu family, and all those mourning this profound loss. May Taiwo’s spirit find eternal peace, and may his memory always be a source of blessing.”
