Seyi akinde & Pa Akindele.

According to the Governor of Oyo State, Mr. Seyi Makinde, "I was saddened to hear that Chief Bode Akindele, the Parakoyi of Ibadanland has passed on.


I join the good people of Oyo State to mourn an illustrious son, a successful entrepreneur, a renown industrialist and philanthropist, as my thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones.

My late father used to pray that i grow up to be like Chief Akindele and i was privileged to have met him recently and had discussions regarding using his medical facility, ARAMED, as an isolation centre for Oyo State.

He was also the single largest donor to our state's COVID-19 Endowment Fund.

Chief Akindele would be solely missed for his kind-heartedness and good deeds, as we pray for the resting of his soul.
