A chieftain of Afenifere, the pan Yoruba socio-political
group, Sir Olaniwun Ajayi, is dead.
The prominent Yoruba leader, who, in less than 48 hours
before his death, spoke exclusively with Nigerian Tribune, in what has turned
out to be his last interview, predicted how President Muhammadu Buhari’s
successor will emerge.
He also revealed the pact between the North and a think tank
based in the United States and Britain.
Watch out for the explosive interview tomorrow in Saturday
Tribune.
It was gathered that Sir Olaniwun Ajayi died in the early
hours of Friday (today) at an undisclosed hospital, in Lagos, at the age of 91
years.
The Isara-born was reported to have complained of pain on
Thursday afternoon and was taken to Lagos by his eldest son, Dr. Konyin Ajayi,
before he gave up the ghost, hours later.
The late Sir Olaniwun Ajayi was born in Isara Remo on April
8, 1925, to Mr Benjamin Awoyemi Ajayi, a farmer and Marian Efundolamu Ajayi.
who traded in the farm produce to sustain the family.
Sir Olaniwun had his early education at Islamic Primary
School, Epe where he schooled for three months and later enrolled into a
primary school in 1937 and completed his primary education in Ode-Remo
after-which authorities of the school engaged him to teach there due to his
intelligence and excellent result.
