TAI SOLARIN'S WIDOW, SHEILA DIES


SusanSavvy Blog has just learnt of the death of Sheila Mary Solarin (nee Tuer), the widow of Dr. Tai Solarin, one of Nigeria’s foremost educators and agitators for social justice. With her late husband, she had founded the famous Mayflower School in Ikenne, Ogun State.

Mrs. Solarin reportedly died this morning at Babcock University Teaching Hospital in Sagamu, near Lagos. She was 88 years old.
The English-born Mrs. Solarin was a dependable ally of her husband who spent a lifetime fighting as a voice for the downtrodden Nigerian masses. She and her late husband had two children, Corin and Tunde.
