Mr Femi was that media personality who you would see quite early at public functions with his cameras and gear equipment, all ready to roll. If you didn’t see him early at that event and you saw him later on, Mr. Femi was probably at another event where he had to take pictures.

Mr. Femi was that photojournalist you would see at every nook and cranny during Social Media Week taking official pictures for The Guardian Nigeria. I remember several times when we bopped into each other at some public and private gatherings, we would always chorus, “You are also here.” You would see him always busy, taking pictures; walking to the extremes of the halls or event centres, looking for the right picture to capture. And due to the fact that I knew he was a veteran photojournalist who had covered numerous sporting competitions within Nigeria, Africa and outside the African Continent, I always made it an obligation to send him links related photojournalism opportunities and fellowships etc.
