Ajanaku's death shocking, says Obasanjo - The Nation Newspaper

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo on Thursday, expressed shock over the death of his erstwhile Presidential Adviser on Women Affairs, Chief Titilayo Ajanaku, saying her loyalty and commitment to women affairs development was exemplary and worthy of emulation.

In a statement by his media aide, Kehinde Akinyemi, the ex – head of States described the late politician as a woman who would do everything in her capacity to uplift, improve and advance the women’ cause. Obasanjo stated: “I remember vividly one of my memorable encounters with Chief Titi Ajanaku, when she accompanied a group of politicians led by Chief S. M. Afolabi of blessed memory to my Abeokuta residence to persuade me to contest as President of Nigeria.“It was partly their persuasion and that of other groups alike that later yielded my final submission to contest for the office of the President of Nigeria.

“All of these culminated in my appointing her as my Special Adviser on Women Affairs during my administration as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and she creditably acquitted herself in every assignment given to her.
