Adeola, in a condolence message, described Fasoranti as a highly respected father and elder statesman whose life was defined by patriotism, courage, wisdom and selfless service to humanity.

He said the late Afenifere leader belonged to a distinguished generation of Nigerians who dedicated their lives to the struggle for democracy, justice, equity and the advancement of the Yoruba nation.

According to him, Fasoranti’s steadfast commitment to these ideals and contributions to Nigeria’s democratic development would remain a lasting source of inspiration.

Adeola extended his deepest condolences to Fasoranti’s family, the leadership and members of Afenifere, Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, and the entire Yoruba nation over the loss.

He also prayed that Almighty God would grant the late elder statesman eternal rest and give his family and other mourners the strength to bear the loss.

“Adieu, Baba Fasoranti. May your soul rest in perfect peace. Amen,” Adeola said.
