The personal secretary to senator Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja, Mr Lanre Latinwo has revealed why the Osi Olubadan was absent at the yesterday's inauguration.
Latinwo in a statement obtained by Mouthpiece NG on Thursday said baba was conspicuously absent due to the remembrance of his promising son, Debola Ladoja who gave up the ghost on 29th May, 2014.
The statement read: "The death of 31years old Debola Ladoja a promising son of the former Governor of Oyo State exactly 5 years on 29th of May this year was responsible for the absence of the Ibadan High Chief Senator Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja at yesterday's swearing in ceremony of Engineer Oluseyi Makinde as the Governor of the State. Debola was working in a financial organization before he met his untimely death on the early hours of 29th May, 2014.
"The former Governor kept the reason to himself in order not to dampen the high spirit of the people around him. This fact was also hidden from the Governor himself out of respect for the occasion and what it meant to the people of the State when he visited High Chief Ladoja where he stayed up till the time of breaking of the day's fast
This information is necessary in order to calm the anxiety that has gripped the people.
