Even in Death, Family, Friends and Associates Celebrate Ajimobi

The achievements of an individual are often limited to their lives. One person can only do so much or create ripples in the sea of impact. Even so, individuals like the late Abiola Ajimobi, former governor of Oyo State, have left behind marks that are difficult to remove. Even three years after his demise, relatives and associates remember the former statesman and person of business.

If the world had spaces for people, his space would remain empty. His name would also continue to be known despite his humble disposition. Some commentators have allied his life and achievements to resonate with the present, meaning that it will be a long, long time before Ajimobi’s name begins to gather dust from disuse or disregard.

In reality, recounting the man’s political abilities and capacity from causing even lions and sheep to have goodwill towards one another, Ajimobi’s marks will remain for a long time to come. Of course, it helps that his family members have not done anything ruinous since the late senator passed on. Instead, they have shared in the glory and prestige he left behind to bring much relief to the people around them.

 It is no wonder the past few days have been dedicated to the memory of Ajimobi. Renowned individuals from all over the country posted old photos of him on the internet, accompanied by good words. They remembered his calm, his strength, and his reliability, taking the time out of their busy schedules to ask for others to emulate him.

The coming days might be difficult for some people, especially those with similarly humble backgrounds as Ajimobi once had. However, the memory of the man and his mantle will doubtless help these people claim victory and reach their peaks in no time at all.
