The Osun State Governor, Gboyega Oyetola, has described the death of the immediate past Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi as unfortunate, painful and a great loss to Oyo State and the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Oyetola said this while commiserating with the family of the former governor who died on Thursday.
In his statement signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Ismail Omipidan, Oyetola said, his thoughts and prayers were with the Ajimobi family, the All Progressives Congress, APC, and the people of Oyo State.
“I am shocked and saddened by the demise of Senator Abiola Ajimobi. His death is unfortunate, painful and a huge loss. My thoughts and prayers are with the Ajimobi family, his loved ones, the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the people of Oyo State, whom he served meritoriously as Governor for eight years,” the governor said.
Oyetola noted that Ajimobi’s administration brought reforms and unprecedented development to Oyo and its people, adding that he changed the face of governance in the State.
He said: “As a two-term governor, Senator Ajimobi redefined governance in Oyo State. His administration embarked on unprecedented infrastructure development in the State and redefined the urban status and development profile of not only the capital city, Ibadan but other major cities in the State.
“Senator Ajimobi was also a true progressive and a loyal party man. He was committed to the ideals of the APC and will be sorely missed by the party.”
Governor Oyetola prayed to Almighty Allah to overlook his shortcomings and grant him aljanah firdaus. He also asked God to comfort his family and loved ones.
