SENATOR Gbenga Ashafa, representing Lagos East Senatorial District at the Senate, expressed shock at the death of former governor of Osun State, Senator Isiaka Adeleke, saying he would miss Adeleke’s personality.
This was contained in a release by the media team of Senator Ashafa.
”It is with a deep sense of loss and shock that I received the news of the passage of my distinguished colleague, brother and friend, His Excellency, Senator Isiaka Adeleke earlier this afternoon. The late Senator Adeleke, a former Governor of Osun State, was a man of uncommon passion for his Constituency, State and Nigeria.
”I enjoyed the benefit of his wise counsel time and again and would definitely miss his sagacious personality on the floor of the Senate.
”My heart and prayers remain with his family members, his constituents and indeed the entire government and good people of the State of Osun at this time of grief. It is my prayer that Almighty Allah will grant the dear departed Aljannah Firdaus,” Ashafa stated.
