The Kwara State Governor, Dr. Abdulfatah Ahmed, has commiserated with Governor AbdulRauf Aregbesola, the people of Osun State, Ede Community and the Adeleke family over the demise of the first civilian Governor of the state, Senator Isiaka Adeleke.
Ahmed described the exit of the politician as sudden and painful.
He said the deceased has contributed immensely to the upliftment of Osun State and its people, particularly the downtrodden.
He said: “Late Adeleke was a likable personality who has contributed a lot to the socio-economic and political developments of his state and the nation. No doubt, this sudden departure will create a vacuum in the political landscape in the country for some time to come. He will be greatly missed for what he stood for, particularly as a notable philanthropist.”
The governor prayed for his peaceful repose and his family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
