Bisola Ajimobi Kola-Daisi, the eldest daughter of the late former governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, died on Thursday at the age of 42.
A former senator representing Oyo Central Senatorial District, Teslim Folarin, confirmed the death in a statement posted on his Facebook page.
She reportedly died after a brief illness on Thursday in the United Kingdom.
While Ms Ajimobi was alive, she served as the Special Adviser to the Minister of Budget and Planning, Atiku Bagudu.
Mr Folarin stated, “I am deeply saddened to receive the news of the passing of Mrs. Bisola Kola-Daisi (Nee Ajimobi), the beloved daughter of my cousin, the late Senator Isiaq Abiola Ajimobi, and former First Lady of Oyo State, Her Excellency (Dr.) Florence Ajimobi. Bisola’s untimely death has left an unfillable void in our hearts, and I can only imagine the pain of a parent burying their child.
“As someone who had the privilege of knowing Bisola as a dear family member – she was like a daughter to me – her passing has left me with a profound sense of personal loss. I extend my heartfelt condolences to the Ajimobi family, particularly former First Lady, H.E Florence Ajimobi. May God grant us the strength and fortitude to bear this irreparable loss. May Bisola’s soul rest in perfect peace.”
Ms Ajimobi is survived by her husband, Kolapo Kola-Daisi, and their three children. Her passing is a devastating loss for the Ajimobi family, who are still recovering from the loss of her father and ex-governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, in 2020.
