In a reaction yesterday, Fayemi described Adebanjo as a man who spent his life committed to fairness and democratic ideals in the face of adversity.

Fayemi said the demise of Pa Adebanjo, who died at the age of 96 years, was a great loss not only to the Yoruba nation but to Nigeria as a whole.

He said, “I am deeply saddened by the passing of Chief Ayo Adebanjo, foremost nationalist and leader of Afenifere. This is a great loss not only for the Yoruba nation but for Nigeria as a whole.

“Pa Adebanjo was a true icon of Nigeria’s democratic struggle, an unwavering advocate of justice, and a pillar of progressive politics in Nigeria. Baba was more than a political leader; he was a moral compass who never wavered in his convictions.

“As a committed nationalist and a leading voice in Afenifere, he stood for fairness, justice and the restructuring of Nigeria to ensure a more equitable society. His principled courage, wisdom, and steadfastness in speaking truth to power made him an enduring figure in our national political landscape.

“While we grieve his loss, we also celebrate a well-lived life dedicated to pursuing a better Nigeria. His legacy will remain an inspiration for those of us who believe in the principles he championed.

“On behalf of my wife, whom he specially adored and the rest of our family, I extend my deepest condolences to his family, the Yoruba nation, the Afenifere leadership, and all Nigerians who are beneficiaries of his leadership and goodwill.

“May his soul rest in peace, and may God grant his family and loved ones the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss,” Fayemi said in a press statement, he personally signed.
