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.”

Ajimobi's wife is petty and vengeful.

My yoruba peeps with veiled messages

Medications after death. They all knew what they are doing.

This woman is very fierce and bitter. She's only digging her pit deeper.

The drama is still on going?

Double talking family. They did not check on you, now they cant be allowed in because they did not send notice of checking on you. Peculiar Mess and Penkelemess

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!

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 with other aides who would accompany the big man.

Unless, there is evidence of invitation or notice of coming, the question is, why did Deputy Governor of Oyo State just show up unannounced and uninvited?

apology accepted

What is the DG and his crew doing their in the first place?
Is it only the masses that must obey this pandemics directives?
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

So, social distance was observed when the man was being buried?

Social distancing absorbs her of any perceived disrespect to the "Constituted Authority" of Oyo people?

I hate people that make excuses for stupid 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.

Na una sabi ooo..

Prayer or no prayer!
Family affair or no family affair!

The Dead has long gone to where he belongs based on whom he believed!

Nothing happening here has any effect on the Dead!

Those who are alive are the ones doing themselves..

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!

Ajimobi wife, continue

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

It is well.
May Allah grant the soul of the departed an eternal rest, comfort the family he left behind and the good people of Oyo State.

But you and your lots can rain curses on Abacha for looting and stealing Nigeria money. And his property and monies are not being recovered by the FG?

You rejoice for the successful repatration of monies, yet if Ajimobi is found to have stolen properties and monies of the people, the monies and properties should not be confiscated?

She's still blind by bitterness and entitlement. By the time Oyo government would strike back, it would be too late for to crawl through the back door of the State house to beg. Even her retired kpekus will not save her by then.

A deputy governor is among those exempted. What about the people inside the building, did you bother to check if they practiced social distancing?
Same woman refused to answer the deputy governor's call giving a lame excuse that she is a politicians wife.
Leave sentiments, the woman is sinister..

An afterthought I bet!

Thank God Hillary Clinton didn't clinch the USA Presidency , the world would have been drenched in palpable fear and trepidation because of abrasive, rash ,disruptive and not well thought out decisions she might have made.


Women are too emotional and too delicate with power. This Florence must have been the real constituted authority. She is vengeful and too sensitive. Henceforth, i hope she stays away from the intricacies of politics.

Its all lies. Akala was there today . when has akala and co became a family with them.

So it's now you want to observe 30 people NCDC rule. It's well with you and your family. I was actually expecting "why didn't he climb the gate if he really wanted to gain entry as per you are a politician wife" lol

slimanyd:

You are missing the point. Chief Akala and perhaps a couple of others were invited as a family friends or close political associates. Obviously Oyo State government was not invited given the on going issues. So, why attend?

Gibberish, it would have been better not to have released any statement because it's obvious the narration and excuse here is all lie.

Dramatic family
