Innalillahi Waina Ilaihi Rajihun and is been some years that my bosom friend at NEPA football club Kola Phillips that passed away and may his resting place be in the highest place of paradise Ameen.
Innalillahi Waina Ilaihi and may Allah Subhana Watahala forgive your shortcomings and grant you the highest place in paradise Ameen. From Bosom friend Alhaji Saka Casal.
Well, it was yesterday that I found out that one of my best friends, and one of the most gifted individuals I have ever met in my life, in person of Kola has passed. We were Football team mates at NEPA Football Club for couple of years, before you came to USA in 1977, and I also came to USA in 1978. Very handsome, intelligent, and well gifted on the soccer field. We have lost contact for years, until our former captain Kasali told me Kola had passed on. I cried like a baby. You were a genuine human being. May God give your wife Buki the strength to bear the great loss. Kola I will forever admire and love you. May your soul rest in perfect peace In Jesus name.
Innalilahi waina Ilaihi Rajihun. I have just found out about the passing away of my bossom brother Kola Phillips.
I lost contact with him when I lost my mobile. I have been trying to get details of him from of our colleagues NEPA footballers without success. I remember when visited Florida with under 16 football team I slept one day in his beautiful house.
May Allah watahala forgive any of his short coming and grant him Jannatul Firdaus Ameen. Sunre Bro Kolinton.
It was a real pleasure to work with Kola, it was a great person, and he learned us a lot of thinks.
My sincere condolences to the family

The last QRQC Workshop at Colleferro was a great experience for we all and I am happy I could greet him a last time.
Thanks Kola!!!

I was sad to hear of Kola's passing. He was the most inspirational leader that I have known in my career. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. I learned a lot from him over the years.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
