Rev. Thomas Sayibu Imoro was born to a Muslim family in 1956. With his parents' consent, he moved to live with a Christian Agriculturist working with a church Agricultural Station in Yendi, Mr Thomas Ahima, in 1969. Rev. Sayibu had the opportunity to hear and learn more about Jesus Christ whiles living with his foster father Ahima. In September 1971, he received Jesus as his Lord and personal saviour at a Scripture Union camp in senior high school. Rev. Sayibu was an alumnus of Ghana Senior High School, Tamale Senior High School, the University of Cape Coast and the University Of Guelph Ontario, Canada. He co-founded the Northern Evangelistic Association (N.E.A) and NewEnergy- an NGO serving in the Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH). He was instrumental in the establishment of the Coalition of NGO’s in Water and Sanitation (CONIWAS) in Ghana and Africa Network of Civil Society Organizations in Water and Sanitation (ANEW). He played a key role in the initiation of the MOLE Conference which is currently the largest annual convening of stakeholders in the WASH sector. Rev. Thomas Sayibu served on the executive board of many organisations, including, GILLBT, Vodafone Ghana Foundation, Baptist Child Development Program (BCDP), Centre for Active Learning and Integrated Development (CALID), Literacy and Development through Partnership (LDP), National Health Insurance Scheme-Northern Region, CONIWAS. He served as S.U Northern Regional Chairman, National Executive Council Member and Camps Committee Chairperson. Rev. Sayibu was married to a lovely wife; Deaconess Samata Mahama Imoro and three blessed children; Wunpini, Nasara and Vincent Taali-mbo. In the early hours of Tuesday 16th June 2020, the news was broken by a male nurse with tears in his eyes. He shared these words ‘’ Throughout my working years in this unit, I have seen a lot of people struggle to die, but not him. He passed peacefully’’. He truly stood for the advancement of God’s Kingdom and we take solace in Psalm 116:15 ‘’ Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.’’. He was a true saint of God.

Mr Abukari Baba Sumaila -Executive Council Member, NewEnergy Tribute To Reverend Thomas Sayibu Imoro • I first met the late Sayibu in Ghanasco, Tamale in the late sixties. Even as a younger student, it was difficult to treat him in the same manner as his mates because he commanded respect – he was modest, friendly, did not hide his views on subjects that he knew about, and above all humble. • In university, he did **not** lose any of the aforementioned virtues but added to them religiousness and voluntary service to friends. • In the last two decades, I was privileged to serve as Executive Council member of NewEnergy with Pastor Thomas Sayibu Imoro who later became a Reverend. I did not fail to notice that he had become more pious, honest and very hard-working – the three virtues that sustained him, I believe. I must also add that I always commented that he was working too hard and needed more frequent breaks. • Around 13th June, I was very sad to hear that he had been taken ill and was extremely pained when it was reported that Reverend Thomas Sayibu Imoro had passed on, on the 16th June 2020. As believers, we know every creation of God will return to God – the Owner will certainly come for what belongs to Him, it is only a matter of time. • I pray that God will find for his family a replacement better than Reverend Thomas Sayibu Imoro. • May the Lord Almighty have mercy on him and grant him a peaceful rest.
