You believed in the brand from day one, when you said, “hey, are you the Pooja?”
You called me out of the blues to cover a major event at the state house. My first ever experience!
This is hard for me to take but i can’t question God. RIP Mentor, Uncle Deji Tinubu. pic.twitter.com/fkHsADaPpX

We lost a member of the Lagos State Executive Council last night, Mr. Deji Tinubu, the Special Adviser on Commerce, Industry and Cooperatives. A fine gentleman and team player who was committed and passionate about the Lagos vision.
May his soul Rest in Peace. pic.twitter.com/V9ZiUH43HR— Akinwunmi Ambode (@AkinwunmiAmbode) January 26, 2018
Actually l’m really sad about Deji Tinubu’s sudden death. Memories of him teasing and helping me when l had morning sickness at the Sydney Olympics, laughing lunches as members of the Lagos FA. Unashamed to speak with love and devotion about his wife Yemisi. Doting dad.
