OBITUARY: Adeniji-Adele… the prince who would miss his son’s ‘coronation’
Until he had his last breath in faraway India on Thursday, Prince Ademola Adeniji-Adele was a force to reckon, with not just in political but also sports circles of Lagos state.
The son of Musendiku Buraimoh Adeniji-Adele, the 20th oba of Lagos, the deceased also had his days as an activist.
He was in the forefront of the battle against the military junta of Sani Abacha, former Nigerian dictator.
Adeniji-Adele, who began his political career as a councilor in Lagos Island local government and later became chairman of the same local government, was incarcerated during the struggle for the restoration of the mandate of the late MKO Abiola.
In 2007, the Babatunde Fashola administration appointed him commissioner for youth, sports, and social development, and he was to be retained during Fashola’s second term, but he rejected it on health grounds.
