Mrs. Remilekun Violet Phillips-George, the mother of elder statesman and former Deputy National Vice-Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olabode George, is dead. She was aged 90.
According to Today Nigeria, Mrs. Phillips-George reportedly died in her sleep as a result of old age on Wednesday.
News of her death was announced at a meeting of the South West leaders of the party held at the International Event Centre, Akure, the Ondo State capital, on Wednesday. The members also commiserated with Chief George and observed a minute silence in honour of the deceased.
Chief George described his mother as a “very gentle loving mother who raised her three children to become respectable people in the society.”
“I will miss her greatly. Her name is Mrs. Remilekun Violet Phillips-George. She just turned 90 about two weeks ago. She has three children and I am the only son. I have two sisters. She died peacefully in her sleep. I am the only son so you can see how she really spoilt me. But I give glory to God for the quality life she spent on earth,” he said.
