A TRIBUTE TO A SAINT TRIUMPHANT, DR(MRS) ABIMBOLA ASAGBA
Dr (Mrs) Asagba was an active foundation member of the Christ the King Society of
Church of Pentecost, Festac Town Lagos.
A committed, generous and kind-hearted member. Ever ready to render a helping hand
to people around her.
A true Nigerian, never discriminated against any tribe, showed her love to all, humble
and respectful, discharged her duty as a good doctor and impacted lives that she came
across.
Rest in the bosom of your maker Dr. Mrs Asagba
She will be missed greatly by her patients.

Dr. Mrs Asagba was a very humble person, very unassuming. She was one of the
foundation members of the Elderly Forum of the Church of Pentecost and very active.
She lectured the Elders on health matters.
After her retirement from government work, she took up part-time employment with
Amuwo-Odofin L.G. in Festac. Many patients always preferred she attended to them
because she would listen attentively to patient’s complaints before prescribing
Anytime you meet her outside (the clinic) she was always willing to render her service.
She was also a good counsellor to her patients who in many cases would leave satisfied.
She was a member of Christ The King society and a dedicated financial member of the
church. She always participated in Ondo State harvest yearly
.
She was one of the foundation doctors of the Church Medical Centre. Her absence was
very much felt when she could no longer attend the Elderly meeting. When the church
heard about her illness and admission, they sent a team of pastoral visitation and
intercession members to visit and pray for her, by which time she was under intensive
care.
We thank God for her son, Mr Tokunbo Asagba for his relentless efforts to see her out of
the hospital, healed - but man proposes, but God disposes.
May her gentle soul rest in perfect peace, in the bosom of her maker

I knew Dr. Asagba in the early 60’s during our student days. She was studying medicine
in Moscow, Russia and I was a student in the UK. She would always come to London for
her holidays after she got married to late Mr Abayomi Asagba, who was then a law
student in the UK, that brought us closer because her husband was my husband’s close
friend.
