Oshiomhole: My last moments with Ajimobi
with the late Senator Abiola Ajimobi, relating how the deceased “brought his deep insights, candor and infectious humour to bear in his contributions as the National Vice Chairman to our discussion that day.”ADVERTISEMENT
“A family man who treasured the company of his wife and children more than anything, he was in a hurry to return to his Ibadan home as soon as the meeting ended. The All Progressives Congress said the demise of its former deputy National Chairman, South had deprived it a decent man whose spirit and character embodied the party’s progressive mantra.
Ajimobi represented Oyo South Senatorial District in the Senate before he was elected to two consecutive terms as governor. The Progressives Governors Forum in a statement in Abuja yesterday said it received the news of the death “with heavy heart and gratitude to Allah for a life well blessed.” The governor in a condolence message in Asaba recalled how Ajimobi “made history when he was re-elected in 2015 to become the first democratically-elected Governor of Oyo State to serve two terms.”
The former Governor of Osun State stated that Ajimobi’s loyalty cost him a lot electorally and personally, thereby losing to the opposition in the 2019 general elections but as a sign of maturity, he bore all conspiracies against him with an uncommon valour, rare comportment and maturity.
