The Senate on Tuesday asked the Federal Government to rename the Ibadan Airport after the late former governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi.

This was sequel to the adoption of a motion by Senator Abdulfatahi Buhari and seconded by Senator Ibikunle Amosun.

Senator Buhari had eulogized the late Ajimobi, who was a member of the 5th Senate from 2003 to 2007.
