The passing on October 20, 2026, of the elder statesman and National Leader of the pan-Yoruba social-political organisation, Afenifere, Pa Reuben Famuyide Fasoranti (OFR), at the age of 100 years marked the end of an era that will continue to feature prominently in national discourse even as the country inches towards the 2027 general elections.
His century-long life was a lesson in integrity, discipline, selflessness, and unwavering commitment to the progress of his Yoruba people and the unity and development of Nigeria. Pa Fasoranti was one of the few remaining members of the old guard led by the late sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, who unleashed nationalist struggles and an ideological revolution that led to Nigeria’s independence in 1960 and later shaped the country’s path to building a new nation in the post-independence era.
