Veteran Make up Artist – Banke Meshida -Lawal Looses Dad

Veteran make up artist – Banke Meshida-Lawal of Bmpro & Bmpro Covers is in  mourning as she recently lost her dad – Professor Ajibola Ebenezer Meshida

This sad news was revealed in a heart felt message the make up artist penned on her social media handle .

According to Meshida-Lawal, “The hardest part was watching you ebb away slowly but through it all, you remained strong. I’m thankful I was there. You instilled the best qualities in us, helped each and everyone hone their talents. Your love for music and the arts was instilled in all of us and I am here doing what I love most because you encouraged those art and photography lessons. Even as I failed woefully in Mathematics (who needed all those Algebra and Further Maths?), once you sat with me and explained it, I understood clearly and wished my teachers broke it down like you did.

Your response to many of our dreams and aspirations was always in the affirmative. And your cackling laughter to our most ludicrous ideas let us know exactly how you felt. Mummy is so heartbroken but keeps repeating all you would have wanted — peace and unconditional love for family and good friends. Quick to forgive, stubborn, kind, cool, easygoing, funny, witty are some of the words I’d describe you with.

Ultimately, you are with God, playing that beautiful violin of yours and taking your turn at the Grand Piano. Thank you Dad for everything. Rest well,”

Her dad who is a  celebrated geologist, scientist, a professor of engineering and also  the winner of 2008 NLNG prize for Science, passed on on  Saturday December 20 in Lagos after a brief illness at age 78.

In 2008, Meshida clinched the Nigeria LNG Prize for Science, also known as the Nigerian Prize, for his life work: his invention called Lateralite, a stabilisation flux for fine-grained lateritic soils to make Nigerian roads durable through the elimination of potholes and gullies.

However, eleven years after Meshida won the award and moved to Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti from his erstwhile University of Lagos base, Nigerian roads continue to deteriorate at an alarming rate despite this homegrown solution.

In a country where almost every road is filled with potholes, an invention, the type made by Professor Meshida should have been an instant hit, adopted by those in government without fuss to solve the problem of bad roads.

Meshida was the recipient of many other awards and worked with a number of international organisations. He is survived by his wife, Funmi, a radiographer, five children – Kunle, Bukky, Bolanle, Banke and Gbenga, and many grandchildren.

His last daughter, Banke Meshida-Lawal, a pioneer of glamour  makeup in Nigeria and brain behind BMPRO Line, while penning an emotional dirge to her father, remembered him as “the kindest, calmest, wittiest, most loving father. He was full of humour and the wisest cracks,” she wrote.

May his gentle soul rest in peace .
