Condolences As Publisher BethNews Mourns Major Segun Oni, Other Military Personnel Ambushed On Monday By Dreaded Bandits


It is with high sense of loss and compassion that we hereby send our sincere condolences and profound sympathies to the entire family of Late Chief Oni in Erukucity, Kwara State over the demise of our beloved son, brother, Major Segun Oni.

It is obvious that the passing of a loved one, more so one's Father, leaves a very painful trail and agony. But please be consoled by the fact that from God we came and to Him we shall all return after our earthly sojourn.

For us humans, there is a time to be born and a time to die. Though the timing and manner of death, an inevitable end, is a secret known only to the Almighty God.

Major Segun Oni answered the call of God on Monday 13th of August 2023 at about 5:40am when the dreaded terrorists, bandits ambushed their camp in Niger State. We learnt he was the senior officer who led the squad to save the lives of the citizens and to protect their properties but it's so unfortunately he embarked on a journey of no return at the age of forty plus. I never knew July 20, 2023 will be the last day we will be exchanging pleasantries together when I received your call to tell me some things and to further commend my proactiveness over my profession Oh! what a painful exit!

It's on a record that Late Chief Oni, your biological father laid good legacies for you to follow in which you never derail from his good antecedents until this abrupt death. You are a very active officer in the Nigerian military force with a pure heart to discharge your effective activities at when due and always accommodating any Eruku Youths who come around you oh! What a giant stride Major Segun Oni.

We mourn with grief while I pray that the Almighty God grant the families the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss. (Amen).
