Former governor of Ekiti State, Dr John Kayode Fayemi has paid a condolence visit to the family of the late Navy Capt (rtd) Caleb Olubolade, former Military Administrator of Bayelsa State and former Minister of Police Affairs, who will be laid to rest in Lagos on Saturday, August 9, 2025.
Fayemi said: “Navy Capt Olubolade, whom I affectionately called my Egbon, was a respected figure and a man of quiet strength. We were co-contestants in the historic Action Congress gubernatorial primaries in 2006, and even when our political paths diverged, we remained cordial and respectful of each other. I was by his side, as Governor of Ekiti State, when he was nominated and eventually appointed as Minister of State for the Federal Capital Territory in 2011.
He was a gentleman who lived a life marked by simplicity, humility, and sacrifice. May he find eternal rest in the bosom of the Lord, and may his family be comforted by the legacy of service he leaves behind.
