In a heartfelt tribute, on his Instagram page posted on Saturday, Fayemi recalled Agbaje\u2019s early emergence into the spotlight as one of the winners of the inaugural John Kayode Fayemi Essay Competition at the age of 16, a moment he said marked the beginning of a remarkable journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI am deeply saddened by the passing of Oluwadamilola Fatimat Agbaje, a truly brilliant and inspiring young woman,\u201d Fayemi said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agbaje went on to become a top law graduate, an award-winning debater, a youth leader, and an advocate, earning recognition for her intellect and unwavering commitment to causes larger than herself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
