“Rest in peace Fawaz Alabi. You were a progressive, a conservative, an Omoluabi, an Awori, a proper Yorùbá man, a BATIST, authentic Lagosian and a nationalist to the core.

“We all miss you, may we meet on the resurrection day.
You never joked with the upliftment of the Awori people in Lagos. You had a lot to offer your people.
@lengdrxx We will never forget this Twitter handle till the end of time.
I am crying as I write this about you”.

Throughout our space hosting and history post, we engaged in countless conversations with him, and he proved to be a staunch supporter of our work. 

“In this moment of grief, I extend my heartfelt condolences to Fawaz Alabi’s family, friends, and the entire Yoruba community on X. May they find solace and strength during this difficult time.
