J9C visits Yinka Odumakin widow Joe Okei-Odumakin

Representatives of January 9 Collective (J9C), an association of friends and professionals, on Friday paid a condolence visit to Dr Joe Okei-Odumakin, wife of late Afenifere spokesman Yinka Odumakin.

The delegation was led by Captain of J9C Loye Amzat, who conveyed the message of the general body to the family of the deceased.

Others in the entourage were Steve Ayorinde, Henry Alade and Azuh Arinze.

The late Odumakin was one of the earliest enthusiasts of J9C during its formative period in 2012.

According to Mr Amzat, Odumakin’s activism and commitment to democracy will never be forgotten.

“J9C mourns a comrade who was unapologetic about his desire for good governance and justice.

“It is a testament to his sterling qualities that Nigerians from all walks of life are celebrating his life and legacy.

“We commiserate with his wife Dr Joe Okei-Odumakin, their children, members of his extended family, Afenifere and Nigeria as a whole on the passage of Mr Yinka Odumakin.”
