The Nation reports that on Sunday, October 24, the ex-president took part in the 10th memorial service for the late Stella at the Chapel of Christ the Glorious King within the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta.
“I won’t say much about her today because much had been written already in my tribute about my late wife in the book, ‘My Watch’ and part of it says, she will be dearly missed by me, my family and the Abebe family,” Obasanjo said.
John Abebe, who spoke on behalf of the Abebe family, also said their sister and daughter would be greatly missed. Segun Oni, the deputy national chairman of the All Progressives Congress in the south, was among those who attended the event. He described the late Stella as a quintessential woman, who was born and raised in a family reputed for its humility and integrity.
Stella Obasanjo died a few weeks before her 60th birthday from complications after cosmetic surgery at a private health clinic in
Spain, on October 23, 2005.
