Ibarapakan Mourns Passing of Ability

Member representing Ibarapa Central and Ibarapa North Federal Constituency, Hon. Dr. Anthony Adebayo Adepoju, has sent his deepest condolences to the family of Mr. Femi Arinola (Ability), who tragically passed away the late hours of Wednesday, November 12, 2025, after a brief illness.

Mr. Arinola, until his death, was the Ward 2 Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ibarapa Central Local Government Area of Oyo State.

Reacting to the news of the passing of the late political leader on Friday, Hon. Adepoju said he received the news with a rude shock, describing it as one too much to handle.

According to the federal lawmaker, Mr. Arinola was a dedicated, devoted and committed member of the PDP in Ibarapa Central and had contributed immensely to its growth, hence the leadership position he occupied until his passing.

Ibarapakan expressed that he is still in a state of grief, noting that the late Ward 2 chairman would be greatly missed in the party.

While commiserating with the deceased’s family, Hon. Adepoju also condoled with the entire PDP members in Ibarapa Land over the loss of their fine colleague.

The Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Federal Character prayed for the repose of the departed soul and asked God to stop untimely death in the party.
