Former Governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, once revealed that he has always told God he wants to die at the age of 70.
Ajimobi stated this during an interview with Splash FM some weeks before he was hospitalized.
Ajimobi, who spoke in Yoruba language during the interview, said his father died two months before he clocked the age of 70.
The two-term governor and former senator, however, succumbed to death yesterday at the age of 70.
Ajimobi said: “I do tell God it’s enough once I clock the age of 70.
“My dad died with just two months to clock 70. So, I always say If I could make it to 70, then it’s enough. But when I was close and experiencing the goodness of life, I told God 70 is too small.”
