” He had held many political positions, notable amongst being State SDP officer; State Chairman of PAC; National Chairman of APN (Founded by late Jakande); State Chairman of Lagos PDP.
He had also contested Lagos state governorship under the platform of APGA.
Adegbola was the Jakande group candidate for the lagos west senatorial primary of the SDP, a contest between him and Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

” He stood for the development of lagos and he sure regrets that this lagos is not as he wished. He will be forever remembered in Lagos Politics. We condole with his family. All PDP flags In the state shall fly at halfmast. All PDP meetings at this time are to be prayers for him.
