Fayemi said: “Odumakin defended the defenceless relentlessly. He spoke for the voiceless.
“He left the legacy of speaking truth to power and unrelenting campaign for restructuring. This country has challenges.This country needs rescuing from the evil merchant. We must not succumb to the merchant of division. We must not give the evil merchant the basis and justification for all they are doing to run this country down.”
