Tajudeen was born on 6 January 1961 in Funtua, Katsina State, Nigeria. He died tragically on African Liberation Day, 25 May 2009 in a motor accident in Nairobi Kenya.

Even in death, Tajudeen still speaks and is recognized for his tremendous contributions to development of the continent. The next generation will not grow up to see Tajudeen, therefore we must work together to create a better society such that we can say to the next generation: this is the world Tajudeen helped to build. Perhaps if we take a moment to reflect on the most popular and most emphasized piece of advice Tajudeen ever offered, we will find in it lessons that still speak to us as individuals, to our countries and to our world today; it is his email signature ‘Don’t Agonize: Organize!’
