Senator Ajimobi
Acting National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Isiaka Abiola Ajimobi, has been reported dead.
Reports on Thursday evening said he died of complications from COVID-19.
News Express contacted the Oyo State Government House, Ibadan but was told that the development had not yet been confirmed.
Senator Ajimobi was the immediate past governor of Oyo State and Deputy National Chairman (South-West) of APC before the party’s National Working Committee on Tuesday named him the Acting National Chairman following the suspension of the occupant of the post, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, on court order. The appointment was, however, challenged by Chief Victor Giadom, who was previously declared Acting National Chairman on court orders.
Two days ago, News Express reported that Senator Ajimobi was in coma at the highbrow hospital, First Cardiologist, Lagos, after he was diagnosed of the dreaded coronavirus over two weeks earlier.
