The member of the House of Representatives, representing Oluyole federal constituency of Oyo State, Hon. Tolulope Akande-Sadipe, joined members of the immediate past governor of Oyo State, late Senator Abiola Ajimobi, as they remember the late governor on his posthumous birthday celebration today, December 16th, 2022.
Late Senator Ajimobi, a two-term former governor of Oyo State and senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, died in June 2020.
Remembering the former governor, Hon. Akande-Sadipe, a cousin to the late Ajimobi paid tribute to the politician on her social media handles.
Hailing Ajimobi as an exceptional politician, whose style of leadership has been vindicated, Akande-Sadipe noted that she missed his guidance, especially as a member of the House of Representatives.
In a post uploaded on Friday, Akande-Sadipe said, “My uncle, my political leader, my mentor, blessed posthumous birthday to you. How we wish we could turn back the hand of the clock. But who are we. The Lord knows why. We miss you, we miss your intelligence, your forthrightness and the love you had for Ibadanland and Oyo State as a whole. The vacuum created by your absence is glaring every day. Now that you are no longer here in person, those who choose to deny your impact have been proved wrong. History has vindicated you. Rest on in peace at the bosom of the Lord.”
