Former Lagos State Governor and national leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is bereaved. He lost his first son, Babajide to the cold hands of death.
Jide, as he was fondly called, died in the early hours of today. Among all of Asiwaju Tinubu’s children, Jide was the only one who shared an uncanny resemblance with him.
Jide was a law graduate of the University of Liverpool, England. He obtained a Masters degree in Maritime Law from the University of London and was called to the Nigerian Bar in 1999. The late lawyer had served as Promoter of TSL Limited and also worked in the Legal Department of Mobil Producing Nigeria Unlimited from January 2000 to September 2001.
Prior to this, he had brief stints with Cargo Maritime in Paris, France, a firm of shipbrokers that specialized in petroleum product tankers, and Ocean and Oil Services Ltd.
According to a release by the Lagos state Otunba Henry Oladele Ajomale, it reads:
Dear Member,
It’s with regrets that I inform you of the demise of Mr. Jide Tinubu, the Son of Our dear and esteemed Leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
