The Ibadan North East local government area of Oyo State, led by Hon. Ibrahim Akintayo, has expressed heartfelt condolences to former Deputy Governor of Oyo State, Ambassador Taofik Arapaja, following the passing of his mother, Alhaja Limotalah Eniola Oladejo Arapaja, who died on Wednesday at the age of 91.

In a statement issued by the Information Officer to the local government, Ikeoye Adetoro, and signed by the council chairman, Akintayo urged the PDP national leader to find solace in the well-lived life of his late mother and to continue praying for the repose of her soul.
