The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, has lost his father-in-law, High Chief Hamza Alimi Majowogbe, the Olu of Ibido-Omu in Odogbolu Local Government Area of Ogun State.
High Chief Majowogbe was the father of Chief Bukola Taibat Obasa, wife of the Speaker.
He passed away early Thursday after a brief illness. He was 95.
The nonagenarian was buried according to Islamic rites in a solemn ceremony attended by family members, community leaders, and Islamic clerics.
Obasa, accompanied by several members of the Lagos State House of Assembly and close associates, was present to pay final respects to the late traditional ruler.
In his condolence message, Obasa sympathised with the entire family while urging them to take solace in the knowledge that their patriarch lived a worthy and impactful life.
The Speaker noted that High Chief Majowogbe’s earthly journey was marked by dignity, philanthropy, and service to the people of Ibido-Omu and beyond.
“We take comfort in the exemplary life he lived and the many lives he touched while with us. I pray that Almighty Allah grants the deceased Al-Jannah Firdaus and gives the family the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss,” the Speaker stated.
