BREAKING: Former Oyo governor, Ajimobi, is dead
Immediate
past Oyo Governor Abiola Ajimobi is dead.
He was said
to have died of COVID-19 complications at First Cardiology Specialist Hospital,
Lagos.
He was 70.
The 70-year-old,
who had been on a life support machine since last Friday at First Cardiology
Hospital in Ikoyi, Lagos, after slipping into a coma following Coronavirus
complications, finally died on Thursday, according to findings by
SaharaReporters.
According to Sahara reporters, a source close to the ex-governor disclosed that Ajimobi
had been on life support machine after he slipped into a deep coma and may not
make any recovery going by the observations of medical experts around him.
The source
further disclosed that the former Oyo governor had a lung surgery since being
rushed to the Lagos hospital but made no progress while his kidneys had also
failed.
Doctors
treating Ajimobi, it was reliably gathered, last Friday informed his family
that his situation had defied every medical intervention and that only a
miracle could bring him back to life.
Those
projections came true on Thursday as the ex-governor finally succumbed to the
virus that has also killed several prominent Nigerians including late Chief of
Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Abba Kyari, who was also treated for the
disease at First Cardiology Hospital until he died.
