Honouring a Father, Preserving a Legacy: Reflections by Chief Dumo Lulu-Briggs at the annual OB Lulu-Briggs Day Celebration 2025

Image
  There is truly nothing we could ever do that would be too much to honour a man of such extraordinary life and impact as Opuda, Alabo OB Lulu-Briggs. All honour and adoration belong first and foremost to God, but for those of us who remain, it is only right that we continue to set aside moments like this to honour a life that meant so much to so many. We call him a legend because he was that, and even more. OB Lulu-Briggs was a man who lived entirely for others. A deeply spiritual man, he sought God daily and consistently measured his actions by one guiding question: “How will God see this?” That conviction was the compass by which he lived his life.

Every year, we pray for the wisdom to do something meaningful, something that truly honours his memory while bringing joy and hope to the hearts of the people he loved so dearly. D...
