Hon. Olajide ‘Odidiomo’ Builds Mosque In Honour Of Late Father

As part of plans by the immediate family of Late Alhaji Lateef Akin-Tokunbo Olajide to immortalize the memory of their late patriarch, the foundation of a befitting Jumat mosque has been laid in honour of the late illustrious son of Ibadanland.

The mosque, named “Abdul-lateef Olajide Mosque”, is strategically located at the Anfaani layout area of Ring Road, Ibadan.

Alhaji Lateef Akin-Tokunbo Olajide, a respected community leader and patriarch of the Olajide family of Ibadan, passed away in April, 2024.

To immortalize his legacies, his son, Hon. Adedeji Dhikrullahi Olajide, conceived the idea of the beautiful mosque, which will serve as a place of worship and spiritual growth for the Muslim community.

The Abdul-lateef Olajide Mosque is a state-of-the-art worship centre, equipped with modern amenities and features that will make it a hub for Islamic activities in Ibadanland.
