A 98-year-old voter at Iyin-Ekiti, Irepodun/Ifelodun Local Government Area of Ekiti, Pa Joseph Adu has said that the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo inspired his participation in political activities as an individual.
Adu disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) after casting his vote at Ward 2, Unit 003, in Iyin-Ekiti on Saturday.
He said the late Awolowo was a courageous, principled politician with an unequal affection for the welfare and wellbeing of the masses.
