Jagaban to fly Moji Olaiya’s Corpse home after Ayo Fayose allegedly refused

 New reports have just confirmed that former Lagos State Governor Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has offered to fly the corpse of actress Moji Olaiya home.
The burial committee, consisting of friends and family who wish for the actress’ corpse to be flown home for a burial, had supposedly contacted Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose,through his aide Lere Olayinka.



Fayose reportedly rebuked the burial committee on the grounds that he has no idea who the late actress was. The desperate team also reached out to Bola Tinubu, and he has agreed to help bring the late Olaiya home.

Announcing the development on his Instagram, Olukayode Salako, the husband of actress Foluke Daramola, slammed Fayose for rejecting their plea.
WHEN SUCH A MAN OF CRUDE, DIRTY CHARACTER AND ORIENTATION IS IN CHARGE OF LEADERSHIP AND POWER Burial Committee: Your Excellency, Moji Olaiya is dead and as an ambassador of your state, we would appreciate your support to fly her corpse back to Nigeria for befitting burial. Governor: Who is Moji?! I don't know any Moji. And I don't want to know any Moji! Please, stop disturbing my phone! What an aberration! What an akwardness and crudity in leadership! Meanwhile, Thank you Asiwaju Bola Hammed Tinubu for always proving it that you remain among the only few reasonable, reliable and benevolent fathers of the Yoruba nation ever since. Moji's remains are coming back home. Thank you Jagaban! Thank you all well meaning Nigerians who have contributed in one way or the other. Thank you sir! What a man with such a large heart!
