The Vice Chairman of Badagry West Local Council Development Area in Lagos State, Princess Oluremi Ajose, has passed away barely two months after assuming office.
Her death was confirmed on Sunday in a condolence message by the Executive Chairman of Olorunda LCDA, Hon. Ajose Kumayon, who described the incident as a painful loss to the people of Badagry Division and Lagos State at large.
“Princess Oluremi was a true servant of the people, a leader with compassion, humility, and unwavering commitment to grassroots development,” Kumayon said.
He added that her life was marked by integrity and service. “Her dedication to the people and her warm spirit touched many lives across Badagry and beyond. She lived a purposeful life and left footprints of diligence, integrity, and love for humanity,” he stated.
Princess Ajose, who was sworn in alongside the Chairman of Badagry West LCDA, Rauf Ibrahim Kayode Yemaren (popularly called RIKAY), in July, was the daughter of His Royal Majesty, Oba Oyekan Possi Ajose, the Alapa of Apa Egun-Awori Kingdom.
According to reports, she died on Saturday and her remains have been deposited in a morgue. The cause of her death has not been made public as of press time.
