Warmest regards,
Hon. Aderemi Oseni
Member, House of Representatives, Ido/Ibarapa East Constituency.

Hon. Aderemi Oseni, the lawmaker representing Ibarapa East/Ido Federal Constituency and Chairman of the House Committee on Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA), has paid glowing tribute to the late former Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi, describing him as a visionary leader who redefined governance through courage, innovation, and unwavering commitment to development.

In a statement released in Ibadan on Wednesday, to mark the fifth anniversary of Senator Ajimobi’s passing, Oseni lauded the former governor’s legacy, which he said continues to shape Oyo State’s political and infrastructural landscape.

“Though five years have passed, the legacy of Senator Abiola Ajimobi remains vivid and deeply influential,” Oseni stated. “He was a trailblazer who broke barriers and introduced a new paradigm in governance. His intellectual capacity, strategic boldness, and infrastructural strides were unmatched in the history of our state.”

Senator Ajimobi, who governed Oyo State from 2011 to 2019, holds the distinction of being the first governor in the state’s history to be re-elected—a feat Oseni described as a testament to the public’s faith in his reform-oriented leadership.

“His administration implemented bold reforms across critical sectors—security, education, urban renewal, and the civil service,” Oseni noted. “He made tough, necessary decisions where others hesitated. Today, many of the roads, institutions, and governance models we benefit from are rooted in his foresight.”

Beyond governance, Hon. Oseni praised Ajimobi’s political ethos, emphasizing his principled and issue-based approach. “He was not just a governor; he was a mentor, a masterful orator, and a proud custodian of Yoruba heritage,” he said. “Within and beyond the APC, he nurtured many leaders who continue to carry forward his legacy.”

Reflecting on the late governor’s leadership style, Oseni added, “Ajimobi’s politics was driven by respect, clarity, and results. His passing was not only a personal loss to many of us, but a national one.”

He concluded with a call to action for present and future leaders: “Senator Ajimobi set a high standard for public service. As we remember him today, let us recommit ourselves to visionary, people-centered governance. Let us lead with integrity and innovation.”

“His name remains indelibly etched in Oyo State’s history. May his soul continue to rest in perfect peace.”
