You are using compiler mode {$mode objfpc} instead of {$mode delphi}.
The first one (normally the default for FPC projects is more strict
with object pascal syntax. The latter one is more geared to Delphi
behaviour.  Just to get your project to compile with minimal fuss,
change to delphi compiler mode. In the long run, I would recommend you
fix your code and use objfpc mode.

NOTE:
Compiler modes are set per unit. The default (if the unit doesn't
contain {$mode ...} line can be set via a compiler parameter. Read the
FPC compiler help for more details.
