The family of the late Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi, is plunged into mourning as news breaks that his first child, Bisola Kola-Daisi, has died at the age of 42.
The heartbreaking announcement came early Thursday morning, March 27, 2025, revealing that Bisola succumbed to a brief illness while in the United Kingdom.
Bisola, a prominent figure in Nigeria’s luxury retail scene and a dedicated philanthropist, was not just known for her family legacy but also for her significant contributions to the business world.
As the Managing Director of Grandex Nigeria Ltd., a leading FMCG retail and wholesale chain established in 1984, and the founder of the prestigious Florence H. Luxury boutique, she carved out a name for herself in an industry often dominated by men.
Married to the well-respected Ibadan-born politician and bank executive Kolapo Kola-Daisi, Bisola was a devoted mother to three children. Her husband took to social media to express his devastation, stating, “The world has lost a shining star. Bisola was not just my wife; she was my partner in everything. Her spirit will live on in our children.”
