“The passing of my elder brother, Sen. Abiola Ajimobi, is both untimely and tragic. He served the good people of Oyo for so long. “We wanted him to use his experience to guide us through trying times. Sadly, dusk came too early and we must bid goodnight. “Sun re, Aare of Ibadan! “My prayers and thoughts go out to the wife and the family at this time of their sorrow. The Lord that comforts will comfort them and grant them inner peace that passes all understanding,” he posted on his Twitter handle, @SundayDareSD.
