According to him, “The progress and development experienced at the Federal College of Education, Special, Oyo, while I was the Provost and Chief Executive Officer of the Institution from 1996 to year 2002, can be attributed to the atmosphere of peace and communal relationship with the institution which was possible with the benevolent disposition of the late Monarch, notable of which was the establishment of the Federal College of Education Special, Oyo in 1977 and the eventual movement of the College to its present permanent site in Akinmorin, Oyo”.

“Ever since my tenure in that capacity at the helms of affairs at the Institution, I have developed a very cordial relationship with Kabiyesi, Alaafin of Oyo and the good people of Oyo Kingdom. His fatherly roles will be greatly missed moreso as a great custodian of rich Yoruba historical, cultural and traditional values.

The former Minister of Sports and Special Duties prayed the Almighty Allah to grant the late monarch aljannatul firdaus.
