So sad! Classic FM OAP Sylvester Ojigbede (Sly) passes away

Popular morning presenter on Classic Fm Sylvester Ojigbede, popularly known as Sly has died. He died last night after a brief illness that had to do with his spinal chord. He leaves behind a wife and two children. May his soul rest in peace, amen.



His friend and co-host Tintin celebrated him with these words
"Sly ... The hardest worker I have ever worked with, my protégée, co-host and adopted nephew... It's nothing but smooth sailing now buddy! I'm hurting so bad, but at least I had the honor of seeing you in your final hours. Thank you for being such a good guy. Ciao Sly....Peaceful journey. RIP"

Rest in Peace Sly. I had wondered why today's Classic FM newspaper review was not aired even though you've been absent for sometime. Now I know. Will surely miss your Baritone voice. I still cannot believe it's true you're gone. Find rest in the Lord's blossom. I pray God will give your young family the strength to bear this unbelievable loss

Can't believe dis, remember back then in Command Ipaja after a game of basket ball, u held on to ur back and d next thing they had to take u home u hurt ur back. U came to school and after 2 weeks and said d Dr said u should avoid straining ur back.Then came d inter house sport competition u went ahead to sprint and it wus d same story,u went home again to get treated.When I saw last year after Deji Anifiwoshe's wedding we got talking and I remember I asked u how wus ur back hope getting to sit down all d time in d studio doesn't affect u anymore and he said to mi u still remember I use to have dat killing back pain back then in command. Could it b d same back pain that affected his spine leading to his death? Rest in Peace to d best rapper Comlag 95 set.U where d first to mime Warren G and Nate Dog's Regulator back then in school,u where every1's delight an ajebota to d core.CharlesTiede,Akpos,Muyiwa Opaleye,Dan tubor and co will miss u just as I am missing u now.R.I.P Sly

Sly U are Gone!!!, I cant believe it, this is so sad.
Early morning paper review will surely miss u.
What a loss, how would Jimi and Bukky Cope???
The programme will never be quite the same without you, the arguments, banters and thoughtful and in-depth analysis that made the program so popular would be sorely missed.
May your Gentle Soul Rest in Perfect Peace.

I AM IN TEARS!!!!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!!! WHAT A SHOCKING PAIN!!!!!! YOU WERE VERY PROMINENT DURING THE PERIOD LEADING TO THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS AND I COULD TELL THAT YOU ALSO DESIRED CHANGE BADLY. WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO GO ALL OF A SUDDEN. WHAT A WORLD OF VANITY. VANITY UPON VANITY. YOU SURELY DID NOT DESERVE TO DIE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I WILL POST A COMMENT ON THIS FORUM THE FIRST BEING AT THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE DEATH OF DORA AKINYULI. SLY YOU IMPACTED ME WITH YOUR VOICE AND SINCERITY. YOU WERE AN ANGEL. A STAR SHINNING BRIGHTER AND BRIGHTER. I AM REALLY CRYING AND WILL SURELY MISS YOU. WRITING THIS WITH ANGER ABOUT THE KIND OF LOVELY PEOPLE THAT COME TO THIS WORLD AND JUST DISAPPEAR.
WE ALL LOVE YOU FATHER SLY BUT GOD LOVES YOU MOST. THIS WORLD WE BROUGHT NOTHING AND NOTHING WE SHALL TAKE WITH US. SLEEP WELL TILL WE MEET AND PART NO MORE. ADIEU DEAR ANGEL.
