A viral video has sparked reactions online after Florence Ajimobi, widow of the late Oyo State Governor Abiola Ajimobi, appeared to decline an attempt by Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun to interact with her at a public event.
Reports identify the occasion as the funeral service for Adeniyi Adeosun, husband of former Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun. During the encounter, FIRS Chairman Zacch Adedeji reportedly attempted to mediate, but Ajimobi turned away when Abiodun approached her.
The footage has since gone viral, with social media users offering different interpretations of the exchange. However, neither Florence Ajimobi nor Governor Abiodun has publicly explained the reason for the apparent snub, so claims about the cause of the tension remain speculative.
