75 year old socialist and activist Late Baba Omojola was finally laid to rest at the Ikoyi Vaults in Lagos.
Baba Omojola gave up a day after he presented the draft constitution by Pro National Conference group (PRONACO).
Prior to his burial, Governor of Lagos state Babatunde Fashola was booed when he arrived for the lying in state of Baba.
Activists and protesters prevented the governors convoy from gaining entrance into Baba's premises and insisted that he stepped down and walk.
Mr. Fashola stepped down from his car and walked into the premises.
But as Mr. Fashola got closer to the house, more activists who had learned of his arrival took the microphone to sing anti-oppressor government song. Some lines in their songs tagged the governor "Ole-ole", translating to the calling the governor a thief.
The activists also ''remixed'' their chorus, asking Mr. Fashola to leave the event to avoid his further embarrassment.
A comrade opened up about why they called the Governor a thief saying ,
A comrade said: "You won't believe they (government) don't allow Baba into their office whenever he was there on pressing public issues that affect the masse. But now that Baba is dead, Fashola is now here to show fake familiarity"
