“He truly embodied courage and fearlessness, especially in his relentless pursuit of good governance. I can only describe him as a fearless fighter. His unwavering commitment to the welfare of his people and his courageous nature will always be remembered,” he said.

While welcoming the president, the Olowo Oba Ajibade Ogunoye expressed appreciation to Tinubu for the visit.

The monarch described the late Akeredolu as a true democrat who was fully committed to democratic principles and practices.

Tinubu also visited Pa Reuben Fasoranti, the leader of the pan-Yoruba organisation Afenifere.
