In a press statement signed by Oyegbola-Sodipo, he said that the Oke-Ona people and entire Abeokuta North community salute the veteran journalist and politician of repute. Even though he does not currently hold any political post currently, Aremo Osoba has remained a relevant and respected leader with outstanding achievements in Ogun State and Nigeria at large.
Furthermore, he expressed that, “The Aremo is a 21st century leader. Not only does he always strive to make things better with new approaches and such unfaltering determination, he seamlessly adapts and proffers solutions to emerging challenges faced by our society."
