We Miss His Wisdom in Governance and Politics – Barr Akeem Agbaje Honours Ajimobi
Barr. Akeem Agbaje, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and two-time gubernatorial aspirant in Oyo State, has paid tribute to the late former Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi, on the occasion of his remembrance anniversary.
In a solemn statement released, the Oyo State 2027 gubernatorial aspirant described Senator Ajimobi as a “true statesman” and “a father figure,” whose wisdom, political acumen, and vision for governance remain deeply missed in both state and national affairs.
“Senator Abiola Ajimobi was a remarkable leader whose legacies continue to speak for him.
He was rightly described as the architect of modern Oyo State, as his tenure was marked by far-reaching socio-economic reforms and infrastructural development that transformed the state.”
Barr. Agbaje recalled the late governor’s unmatched contributions to public service, noting how he brought his vast private sector and public governance experience to bear in raising the standard of administration in Oyo State.
“His impact on national development and on the progressive family cannot be overstated. Senator Ajimobi was a leader of leaders, and his loss remains a deep void to many of us who looked up to him.”
Offering prayers for the family, Barr. Agbaje extended his thoughts to Her Excellency, Dr. (Mrs.) Florence Ajimobi, and the rest of the Ajimobi family, praying for continued strength and fortitude to uphold his enduring legacy.
“May Almighty Allah continue to grant our leader, Senator Abiola Ajimobi peaceful rest, and may He give his family the grace to carry forward the values he stood for.”
