The Ministry noted that the tenure of Ajiboso as Commissioner for Agriculture and Cooperatives during the first term in office of former Governor Raji Fashola witnessed monumental achievements and developments in the agricultural land space.

It then prayed to God to grant the soul of the departed Ajiboso eternal rest just as it beseeched God to grant the family in particular and well wishers in general the fortitude to bear the loss.

Chief Ajiboso, who was also a former Chairman of Agege Local Government, reportedly died in the early hours of Sunday in his hometown, Inisa in Odo Otin Local Government Area of Osun State.

The deceased until his death was the Eesa of Inisaland, the highest traditional stool in the town, second only to the traditional ruler of the town.
