Bisola Kola-Daisi, the eldest daughter of the late former Governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, has passed away at the age of 42. The mother of three reportedly died on Thursday morning in the United Kingdom after a brief illness. Before her passing, Bisola served as a Special Adviser to the Minister of Budget and Planning, Atiku Bagudu.

The family is yet to announce funeral arrangements.
