Former governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi, has been buried in Ibadan, Oyo state capital.
He was buried at about 10 am on Sunday.
Onyxnews Nigeria reports that the late Acting National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress was buried according to Islamic rites at his 6th Avenue, Yemoja Street, Oluyole Estate residence in Ibadan, in the amist tight security.
The Agodi GRA, which was the preferred choice by the Ajimobi family, was allegedly not approved by the Oyo State Government on the ground of litigation on the property, and that caused the delay of the burial ceremony.
Ajimobi was confirmed dead on June 25th at a First Cardiology Consultant Hospital in Lagos state.
The late politician, who died as a result of multiple organ failure due to complications from COVID-19, was reportedly buried in strict compliance with the COVID-19 protocols.
Less than 20 people, including his wife, Chief Florence Ajimobi, and other members of his immediate family, were present.
Party faithful and other loyalists of the late politician were barred from the scene of the burial.
Armed policemen were strategically positioned at the residence of the deceased.
Movements in and out of the neighbourhood were controlled as the burial ceremony held.
Prayers was held for him at the Senator Ishaq Abiola Ajimobi Mosque, Oke-Ado, Ibadan.
Ajimobi died at age 70.
