A video has captured the moment the late pan-Yoruba socio-cultural organization Afenifere leader, Ayo Adebanjo, spoke about how his demise would be announced to the world.
Recall that Pa Adebanjo died at his residence in Lekki, Lagos, on Friday, February 14, 2025, at the age of 96.
In the video, which featured Adebanjo and a woman’s voice, identified as his daughter, the deceased revealed how news of his passing would be announced in the media.
He was heard saying, “Ayo Adenbanjo, leader of Afenifere, the controversial man, is gone. He died at the age of 90-something. He spoke last to his daughter.”
Adebanjo was a prominent Nigerian lawyer and nationalist. He was a founding member of Afenifere, established in 1993 in response to the annulment of the June 12, 1993, presidential election.
Throughout his life, Pa Adebanjo steadfastly advocated for democracy, justice, and true federalism in Nigeria.
