The vice president said Balogun was an outstanding legal mind, and a doyen of the Nigerian capital market and investment banking.

“The tribe of true nobility and greatness is diminished by one!
“Olori Omo Oba Subomi Balogun, noble in word and deed, outstanding legal mind, doyen of the Nigerian capital market and investment banking, deep, wise, forthright, kind to all, and God-fearing.

“Remembered with much affection, respect and admiration.

“We pray that the Lord will comfort aunty (Olori), our dear brothers and the entire family in Jesus’ name. Amen,” he prayed.
