Awo kìí kú, Awo kìí rùn
Awo ńpa’pòódà ni
B’Áwo bá p’èhìnd ̣ à tán
K’éni máse s ̣ è’dárò Awo
The knowledgeable ones do not die and do not become rotten
They only transition to the spiritual realm of ancestors
Therefore, when a knowledgeable one transitioned
Let no one mourn but rather celebrate the transition
Ìyè ̣rè ̣ Ifá dirge for a deceased Babaláwo, Ifá diviner (‘Father of ancient wisdom’).
We celebrate the life of our knowledgeable and well accomplished retired Ceramics Professor at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria, Chief Raphael Ìgè Ibigbami, who transitioned to the realm of ancestors on August 26, 2020.
