A former member of the House of Representatives, Honourable Oladipupo Adebutu, has suspended all activities leading to his installation as the Lisa Aje of Egbaland by the Alake of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Gbadebo.
He said suspension of the ceremony was borne out of empathy for those who lost loved ones at the tragic shooting of peaceful #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki Toll Plaza and the needless loss of lives during the protest across the country.
Adebutu, in a statement signed by his media consultant, Afolabi Orekoya and made available to newsmen, said he was overwhelmed by events of the last two weeks culminating in loss of lives and limbs of citizens during the #ENDSARS peaceful protest which were inadvertently hijacked by hoodlums, resulting in wanton destruction and looting of property across the country.
Part of the events lined up for the installation of the real estate-cum-animal husbandry billionaire is a symposium on Public-Private Partnership Private towards the development of Ogun State.
“Adebutu hereby seizes this opportunity to express his heartfelt condolences to those who have lost loved ones, those who are in physical or emotional pain, those that are financially distressed by these events or for that matter a combination of these woes,” the scion of the pools magnate said.
Adebutu, who represented Ikenne/Sagamu /Remo North Federal Constituency in tye eighth National Assembly prayed for the repose of the souls of those who died as a result of the protest and fortitude for the bereaved families to bear the loss.
