It is with a heavy heart, that I received the sad news of the passing of my friend, political associate and the woman Leader of our dear local government, Alhaja Modinat Ibrahim, who left us yesterday after a protracted illness.
A few weeks ago, I visited her at home to check on her, and offer my support in my own little way after learning about her health condition.
It is therefore deeply painful to hear that my sister, Modinat, has passed on.
She was a politically versatile, dogged, and influential woman, whose impact on the politics of Oshodi/Isolo Local Government and beyond, as the woman leader, will not be forgotten in my consciousness, and that of my political group.
Alhaja Modinat and I had known each other politically since 2021, when we worked together for the emergence of the current Chairman of Oshodi/Isolo local Government, Otunba Kehinde Oloyede Almaroof.
From that period until her passing, we remained in touch and maintained a cordial political relationship.
I pray that Almighty God will accept her soul and reward her abundantly for all the good she did during her lifetime.
I commiserate with the government and people of Oshodi/Isolo Local Government, the womenfolk, and all members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) family in the local government and in Lagos State.
I pray that this kind of painful loss will cease in our midst.
