Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has remembered his father, Olatunbosun Makinde, on the eight anniversary of his death.
Pa Makinde, a teacher-turned accountant, died in July 2012.
Mr Makinde shared a picture of himself on social media laying wreath at his father’s grave.
“Today, I remember my father, friend and mentor, Pa Olatunbosun Makinde, who passed eight years ago in July 2012. His memory remains in my heart now and always,” he wrote on Friday.
The governor had in November last year celebrated his mother, Abigail Makinde, on her 80th birthday.
The family held a thanksgiving service at St Paul’s Anglican Church, Yemetu in her honour.
