Olusegun Obasanjo, former
President of the federal republic of Nigeria, on Saturday at the 10th Memorial
Service of his late Mrs Stella Obasanjo who passed away on the 23rd of October
at a Spanish hospital in Spain recalled memories of life with his late wife,
Stella , who he said he would continue to miss her greatly.
Speaking at the memorial
service for the late Stella at the Chapel of Christ the Glorious King within
the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL), Abeokuta,
Obasanjo said the tribute he had written about her in his book ‘My Watch’ tells
it all.
“I wont say much about her
today because much had been written already in my tribute about my late
wife in the book, ‘My Watch’ and part of it says, she will be dearly missed by
me, my family and the Abebe family,” Obasanjo said.
Mr. John Abebe who spoke
on behalf of the Abebe family said their sister and daughter would be missed.
For the Deputy National
chairman, All Progressives Congress (APC), South, Segun Oni described
late Stella as quintessential woman, who was born and raised in family reputed
for humility and integrity.
