BREAKING: Ayobo Ipaja LCDA Chairman, Shobowale  Dies

By Akinwale Kasali

Less than three days after Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-olu appointed the Vice Chairman of Ayobo Ipaja Local Council Development Area, Oladipupo Oluwaloni, as the Acting Chairman, to end the leadership vacuum that had crippled administration of the council’s activities due to the illness of the Chairman, Bola Shobowale, she finally passed on.

She had been battling a protracted ailment that took her away from office for about a year, leaving a leadership vacuum in the LCDA.

Recall that there had been series of allegations of fraud in the LCDA, with the withdrawal of huge sums from the LCDA’s account without approval by the Chairman.

There have been calls for the removal of some members of the Executive and Legislative arm of the LCDA, following her unavailability to perform her duties, but the call was not heeded to  until three days ago when Governor Sanwo-Olu put her Vice, Oluwaloni, as Acting Chairman, before her demise Friday.
