Madam Caroline Jegede hailed from Ipele near Owo in Ondo state and was mother of the PDP governorship candidate in the last election in Ondo State.
According to Atiku, the deceased lived a worthy life judging by the quality of children she left behind and her legacy of a mother, teacher and trader.
The release added that, “it must also be acknowledged that as a devout Christian, Madam Caroline has gone to take eternal rest with her Maker and she must be commended for her invaluable support in promoting her religion during her lifetime.”
The PDP presidential flag bearer prays for her immediate family, her Ipele native community, to find the fortitude to bear the loss of a matriarch who has gone to rest after a ripe age
