President Muhammadu Buhari has commiserated with the Ogun State governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, and the Iperu-Remo family over the passing of their patriarch and renowned educationist, Dr Emmanuel Adesanya Abiodun.
The president also condoled with institutions and educationists in the state who had worked with the late Abiodun, fondly called ‘Baba Teacher’ over many years, affirming that the principles of living for God, good of others and the country, and sharing knowledge greatly impacted on the entire Western Nigeria and the country.
In a statement by his spokesman, Femi Adesina, President Buhari said he believed Dr Abiodun’s passing, leaving a strong legacy of service to humanity, further stirs the need for reflection and making of right choices for living, particularly in working for the betterment of mankind.
“President Buhari urges Governor Abiodun and all family members to take solace in the good works of their father, grandfather and great grandfather, while praying for repose of his soul,” the statement read.
