Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State, on Sunday, said that his government would immortalise the former governor of the state, Alhaji Lam Adesina.

The Obafemi Awolowo Stadium, venue of the fidau prayer, was thronged by friends, family members, political associates and other eminent personalities including former President Olusegun Obasanjo; former Governor Bola Tinubu of Lagos; the National Chairman of ACN, Chief Bisi Akande; Governors Babatunde Fashola, Rauf Aregbesola, Ibikunle Amosun, Kayode Fayemi and Adams Oshiomhole of Lagos, Osun, Ogun, Ekiti and Edo states respectively; former Governors Rashidi Ladoja, Omololu Olunloyo, Olusegun Osoba and Niyi Adebayo; the Chief Judge of Oyo State, Justice Badejoko Adeniji and the Speaker of the state House of Assembly, Mrs Monsurat Sunmonu.

Governor Ajimobi, who said that no honour done to Alhaji Adesina was too much in view of his immense contribution to the growth and development of the state, pointed out that government would do a lot of things to immortalise the late former governor.

He announced the establishment of what he called the Lam Adesina Scholarship Endowment Fund through which he said scholarship would be given to brilliant but indigent students in the state up till university level. PunchNG
