Professor Of Law Who Became SAN At The Age of 90, Dies At 91

91-year-old professor Toriola Oyewo Ajagbe who became a senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN) last year, is dead.

The professor until his death was a lecturer at the Faculty of Law at Adeleke University, Ede, Osun State.

He was promoted to the rank of SAN in 2021 when he was 90 years old.

The late professor of law was said to have been involved in a road traffic accident over a week ago, at Ode Omu town in Osun State, where he sustained injuries and was taken to University College Hospital, Ibadan, for medical attention.

He died at the hospital’s intensive care unit (ICU), said his daughter, Mrs. Kiitan Adeagbo.

Ajagbe was born on the 11th of January, 1831 in Erunmu, a community in Egebda Local Government Area (LGA), Oyo State.

The nonagenarian admitted last year that he would not stop going to court as far as he could carry himself.

He described the legal profession as having no time limitation and being a professor in that field is not like that of Geography History or Biology.

The more time you spend, the more experienced you are.

May his soul rest in peace.
