Late Esther Taiwo Ejide Adesina
Deaconess Esther Taiwo Ejide Adesina has died. She passed away on Tuesday, April 1, 1,2025, well into her 90s.
She was a dutiful and faithful soldier of Christ, a loyal and devoted wife to her late husband, and a loving and caring mother to her children – biological and adopted.
Mama was a pillar of support for her family – nuclear and extended. She was a selfless giver who embodied compassion in its truest form. A gifted and self-taught intellectual with unparalleled love for education and a lover of God with an undiluted vision of eternity.
A longtime deaconess of the Baptist Church, she has left a huge legacy of compassion, righteousness, and hard work.
Among her children is Debo Adesina, immediate past Ambassador of Nigeria to the Republic of Togo and formerly Editor-in-Chief/Chief Operating Officer of The Guardian newspapers.
