A Better Nigeria
Obi wrote: “Today, together with my very dear elder brother, Prof Pat Utomi, I arrived Ibadan, Oyo State, to commiserate with the bereaved wife of Late Gov Rotimi Akeredolu, Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, and the entire Akeredolu Family, as we all mourn the death of Gov Akeredolu.
“While Gov Akeredolu was the President of the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, and subsequently as a Governor, he stayed consistent on how to build a better Nigeria where there would be respect for the rule of law, security of lives and properties of Nigerian citizens.
“He believed in a restructured and productive Nigeria.
May God who it pleased to call him home at this time grant him eternal rest.
May he grant his dear wife, Mrs Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, the entire Akeredolu family,and all of us who mourn him, the fortitude to bear his irreplaceable loss.”
