Spokesperson to late Governor Abiola Ajimobi, Mr Bolaji Tunji has explained the family side of the story in the mild drama that played out at the 8th Day Fidau prayer held in honor the deceased governor.

The Oyo state delegation led by Deputy Governor Rauf Olaniyan, the Head of Service, Amidst Ololade and the Commissioner for land, Mr Abiodun Abdul-Raheem, had arrived the Oluyole venue of the prayers, but could not gain entrance into the venue of the prayers.

But, Tunji said, the family was not aware that the Deputy Governor would be attending the event neither was there any prior arrival of the deputy governor’s advance protocol team to intimate the family ahead.

He said the event which was planned as a family event held in observance of strict protocol of the NCDC, adding that effort to facilitate the entrance of the deputy Governor proved abortive as soon as the family gets the information on the presence of the Deputy Governor at the Oluyole residence of the deceased governor.


Tunji said in a statement “There is the need to clarify the believed presence of the Deputy Governor of Oyo State, Engineer Rauf Olaniyan at the 8th day prayer of HE Senator Abiola Ajimobi, the immediate past Governor of Oyo State.

“The Deputy Governor arrived after the prayer had started. The event was strictly a family affair.

“There was a need to comply with the Covid-19 protocol as established by NCDC – Social distancing, not more than 30 people in a place and seats arranged, accordingly. After which the gate was shut.

“No one was aware that the Deputy Governor was coming as neither the advance team nor the protocol informed us.
“By the time we got to the gate to usher him into the sitting room, he had left. Everything happened within a spate of 10mins.

“Through a serving Senator and a former Attorney General we tried to get in touch with him that it was not to slight him and he could sit in a private sitting room provided by the family. Unfortunately, he had left. We however apologise to his Excellency.”

Are they not aware of large gathering and social distance.
Well, it'll be on record that he came but because of the current situation he wasn't allowed in

Trust me, if the government of Oyo State decides to run after all the establishment of her late husband and her own, they are justified by this her total disregard for the government of Oyo state! This is not just against the deputy government, it is against the whole state itself.

You initially said they didn't commiserate with you, now they came and you rubbished the whole state! Damn! They need to teach her a lesson! You claim you are observing the Covid 19 protocols but hundreds of people were present when the man was being buried.


Oyo State government should investigate all properties, monies and anything associated with the Ajimobis and which ever one is gotten through illegal means should be confiscated! Let the women crawl to the government house through the tarred roads and beg!

I hate entitled, bitter, ingrates, ungrateful, sad, and arrogant people!

I don't know how you arrived at your conclusion, so you want the state government to investigate the dead and confiscate his property just because they are having problems not because there is an initial fraud probe.

What's my business with dead being investigated or not?!

If he stole money while alive ALL should be confiscated and anyone alive sitting on the monies and properties should be jailed!

aremuforlife:

How do you question a dead man, how does he/her plead guilty or not?

festacman:
Why are people too quick to condemn late Ajimobi's widow in every incident involving her husband's political opponents?

In this case, either Oyo State Government was being mischievous or there was a breach of normal procedure for movement of top public official: earlier arrival of advance team comprising security and protocol aides to prepare grounds for the big man's arrival while remaining in contact with other aides who would accompany the big man.

So, why did Deputy Governor of Oyo State just show up unannounced and uninvited?
