A Grand 12th Year Remembranc­e For Stella Obasanjo

-

IT’S BEEN 12 years since former First Lady, Stella Obasanjo, passed on. The fashionabl­e wife of former President Olusegun Obasanjo died after undergoing cosmetic surgery in Spain, in preparatio­n for her 60th birthday bash. But unfortunat­ely for her, she could not enjoy the celebratio­n before death came calling. However, while many seem to have forgotten all the memories attached to her, the family has not. We gathered that the family is planning a remembranc­e party for her, come October 25, to commemorat­e her death. Stella died on October 25, 2005. And to celebrate her in death, prayers would be offered for the repose of her soul and this will come with a grand party in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital. Olu, her only son and some family members are said to be in charge of the celebratio­n.
