Olunloyo obtained his PhD in Mathematics from the University of St Andrews in 1961 with his thesis On the Numerical Determination of the Solutions of Eigenvalue Problems of the Sturm-Liouville Type. Upon returning to Nigeria, Olunloyo began his entry into politics. He was first appointed Commissioner for Economic Development of the Western Region and after holding various other governmental roles, became the chairman of the Western Nigerian Development Corporation. In 1983, Olunloyo ran for governor of Nigeria’s Oyo State, successfully defeating the incumbent and assuming office in October of that year. His term as governor was unfortunately cut short by a coup d’etat led by General Muhammadu Buhari that deposed the elected government just three months later. Olunloyo’s attempts to re-enter politics in the early 2000s resulted in his leaving the People’s Democratic Party, joining its rival Action Congress of Nigeria, reformed as the All Progressives Congress, Nigeria’s current ruling party.
