Former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s Special Adviser on Women Affairs, Mrs. Titilayo Ajanaku, is dead.

Ajanaku, a founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party, died in the early hours of Thursday at the age of 73.

Our Correspondent learnt that the politician reportedly died after a battle with a terminal illness that had lasted for years.

Until her death, the late Ajanaku was the Otun Iyalode of Egbaland.

She was the chairman of old Abeokuta Local Government in Ogun State and, indeed, the first woman to be elected as a local government chairman in Nigeria.

Ajanaku, who was born on January 25, 1946 at Ago-Odo Quarters in Abeokuta, Ogun State, was a trained nurse, administrator and women leader.

She was also one of the top politicians arrested in 1995 over a phantom coup and later arraigned before the Patrick Aziza-led military panel.

In 2015, Ajanaku dumped the PDP and joined the Peoples Democratic Movement (a support group of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar) ahead of that year’s election.

She attended the Nawair-Ud-Deen Secondary School, Abeokuta; and trained in Nursing at Stobhill General Hospital, Nether-Edge City General Hospital, Sheffield, United Kingdom, between 1964 and 1965.

Rest in peace to the dead. May the good Lord give your family the heart to bear the lost

Life is but a stage, we act our parts and we leave.
Some as heroes, some as villains and some unnoticed.

Her time is up.
The irony is that one day for all of us, our time will be up and only then would we realize that most of all we did on earth were either efforts in futility or efforts in vanity.
Then we'd beg in vain for another chance to come back and live right.

But the question no one knows is who is next.

Wetin kill am?!?

Terminal illness no get name?!?

Na wao!!!!


RIP
