The Governor, however, said he is consoled by the fact that late Abiola Ajimobi lived a life worthy of emulation having left an indelible mark in the sands of time.
” He was a patriotic and an exemplary leader who impacted so many lives. We have to accept what God has allowed to happened, knowing that death is inevitable to all mortals”, the Governor said.
He then prayed Allah to grant the soul of the deceased Aljannah Firdausi and give his family and the people of his State the fortitude to bear the loss.
