The message issued in Jos by Lalong’s Director of Press and Public Affairs. Makut Macham notes, “The late Ajimobi was a man of integrity who served the people of Oyo State and Nigeria with excellence. The sterling leadership qualities of late Ajimobi and his role in the formation of the All Progressives Congress endeared him to many party members which led to his appointment as Deputy National Chairman, South.”
He consoled with the wife of the late Senator, Florence, children and entire family, asking them to take solace in his rich legacies and accept the sad development as the will of God.
