Akeredolu: Nigeria lost a strong voice, fearless commentator, says Jimoh Ibrahim
In an interview with The Nation, Jimoh said yesterday that while Ondo State has lost an illustrious son, a fearless advocate of unity, equity and fairness and a faithful servant of the people, Nigeria has lost a strong voice, a great commentator.
“It is a monumental loss to Ondo in particular and Nigeria as a whole. A fearless commentator on national affairs is gone,” the senator said.
He extolled Akeredolu’s boldness and clarity of thought, a virtue he said set him apart from many public office holders.
“You knew where he stood on issues, no equivocation, no prevarication,” Jimoh said.
He praised Akeredolu for his legacy projects which, according to him, dot the landscape of the Sunshine State.
Ibrahim urged the new governor to build on the foundation laid Akeredolu for development.
