Oyinlola mourns Ajimobi

A former governor of Osun State, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, has described the death of Senator Abiola Ajimobi as a great loss to Nigeria and, in particular, to Yorubaland.

Prince Oyinlola in a message on Thursday described Senator Ajimobi as a complete gentleman and a patriot in every sense of the word.

He noted that Ajimobi had a very large heart in his dealings with all manner of persons who came his way while his politics was clearly without bitterness.

Oyinlola added that the late ex-governor gave a good account of himself first as a senator, then later as governor leaving behind legacy programmes and projects that will forever mark him out as a very successful politician.

He prayed for the repose of his soul and for his family to have the fortitude to bear the loss.
