Idris Ajimobi, the son of the late former governor Abiola Ajimobi, has been appointed as special adviser (special duties) to Jibrin Barau, the deputy senate president. It is worth noting that Barau is a loyalist of Umar Ganduje, the former Kano governor and Ajimobi’s father-in-law.

Idris Ajimobi was previously the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ibadan South West state constituency 2. Unfortunately, he lost to the candidate from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
