Members of the National and Oyo State House of Assembly who are members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Saturday visited the family of the late former governor of Oyo state, Senator Abiola Ajimobi.
Folarin who led the delegation to the Oluyole residence of the former governor while addressing journalists, said Senator Ajimobi’s death came as a rude shock to all the lawmakers and all that concerned. “Our great leader was full of life and radiated good health the last time we met. In fact, he looked younger than his age” he lamented.
The former Senate leader tearfully said His Excellency Ajimobi’s death has robbed the progressive family of its eloquent and exemplary leader. He will be sorely missed by the APC family, the people of Oyo State and Nigeria at large.
“Though our Oga is no more, his legendary achievements as a public administrator live on. He was undoubtedly and universally acknowledged as the Architect of Modern Oyo State; his Koseleri records in the governance of Oyo State will be very difficult to match”.
“We salute our fallen leader for his qualitative services to Nigeria and the APC. We will always remember him for his hard work, dedication and commitment.”
The Delegation included: Federal Lawmakers; Rt. Hon. Olusegun Odebubmi Bunvic (Ogo-Oluwa/Surulere), Rt. Hon. Adeyemi Akeem Skimen (Afijio/Oyo East/Oyo West/Atiba), Hon. Musiliudeen Olaide Akinremi (Ibadan North), Hon. Akin Alabi (Egbeda/Ona-Ara), Hon. Shina Peller (Iseyin/Itesiwaju/Kajola/ Iwajowa).
