Mogaji Wole Arisekola, a prominent Ibadan entrepreneur, philanthropist and community leader, on Saturday paid a condolence visit to the Balogun Olubadan of Ibadanland, His Royal Majesty Oba Tajudeen Abimbola Ajibola, following the death of his senior wife, Alhaja Basirat Ajibola, the Aare Onibon Iyalode of Ibadanland.
Arisekola’s visit was a gesture of solidarity with the revered monarch and the entire Ajibola family as they mourned the loss of the late traditional titleholder, whose death has thrown members of Ibadan’s traditional and social circles into mourning.
The condolence visit brought together prominent personalities who accompanied the Mogaji to pay their respects to the bereaved monarch and demonstrate support for the family during the difficult period.
Among those in Arisekola’s entourage were the Chairman of Harmony Garden and Estate Development Limited, Hon. Saheed Audullahi Mosadoluwa, popularly known as Saheed Ibile; Balogun Gaphar Babatunde Ojetola; Dr. Saheed Adetunbi Ige; and other associates.
Arisekola, the publisher of Street Journal magazine and President of the Association of Online Media Practitioners of Nigeria (AMPON), is the Mogaji of the Ajenigieye family of Oje, Ibadan.
His visit further underscored the importance of compassion, friendship and solidarity within Ibadan’s traditional institution.
Alhaja Basirat Ajibola’s death has attracted attention across the ancient city, given her position as the Aare Onibon Iyalode of Ibadanland and her place in the household of Oba Ajibola, a senior member of the Olubadan-in-Council.
As the Ajibola family continues to grieve, Arisekola’s visit served as a mark of respect for the late Olori and a demonstration of support for the monarch and his loved ones at a time of profound loss.
May Almighty Allah grant Alhaja Basirat Ajibola eternal rest and give Oba Tajudeen Ajibola, the children and the entire family the fortitude to bear the loss.
