Abiodun said, “Our Baba, Chief Olusegun Osoba, underwent  knee replacement surgery in the UK and we thank God that it went well, as he is now fine and in perfect condition. He spoke to me that he would have loved to be present at the independence celebration, but for the surgery.

Even in his condition, Baba offered prayers for Nigeria in general and Ogun state in particular.”
